Cardi B Announces Pregnancy And Divorce From Offset In The Same Day

Cardi B is celebrating a personal milestone just as she marks the end of a life chapter.

The Grammy winner confirmed on social media Thursday that she’s pregnant with her third child. Her announcement came just hours after it was reported she’d filed for divorce from fellow rapper Offset, her husband of seven years, for the second time.

“With every ending comes a new beginning!

You’ve reminded me that I never have to choose between life, love, and my passion!”

She went on to note: “I love you so much and can not wait for you to witness what you helped me accomplish, what you pushed me to do! It’s so much easier taking life’s twists, turns and test laying down, but you, your brother and your sister have shown me why it’s worth it to push through!”

Cardi B made no reference to her third baby’s father in her post. She and Offset share a 6-year-old daughter, Kulture Kiari, and a 2-year-old son, Wave Set.

Earlier on Thursday, a press representative confirmed to The Associated Press that Cardi B had filed for divorce from Offset, calling the split “amicable.” The New York Post’s Page Six, which broke the news, reported that she is seeking primary custody of their two children.
