Cardi B and Offset welcome third child together amid divorce filing
American rapper Cardi B and her estranged husband, rapper Offset have welcomed their third child together.
Cardi shared the good news with her fans through social media, taking to Instagram to upload a slide of sweet photos from moments after the baby girl’s arrival.
On the first picture, the rapper cradles her newborn baby, who is wrapped in a blanket and dressed in a pink marvin.
She simply captioned the picture: “Prettiest little thing.”
On more photos shared by the star, Offset and their two older children are photographed bonding with the baby.
The Los Angeles Times notes that the announcement could serve as confirmation that all is cordial between the two, who confirmed their split earlier this year.
“Cardi made that [pregnancy announcement] amid reports that she and Offset, whom she wed in 2017, were again heading toward divorce and that she was reportedly seeking primary custody of their children,” the report notes. According to TMZ, her divorce documents confirm that Offset is the father of her third child. On Thursday, the outlet reported that the co-parents were not getting back together.”
Since getting together, Offset and Cardi’s relationship has been a roller coaster, with the pair sharing both beautiful moments and tragic splits in equal measure.
The two broke up in December 2018 after reports of infidelity, but reconciled by January the next year.
Cardi B filed for divorce in 2020, reportedly after discovering that Offset may have continued with his philandering ways. Barely a month later, they were back together again.
Page Six reports on the most recent split: “Cardi had filed for divorce from Offset on July 31 amid rumors he had stepped out on their marriage, though he vehemently denied the allegations — again.”
“A source told us that Cardi’s main priority is “obtaining primary custody” of their two children.”
