Cardi is expecting her third child with estranged husband, Offset. Cardi announced the news on August 1 just hours after Us Weekly confirmed the “WAP” rapper had filed for divorce from Offset. (The couple share daughter Kulture, 6, and son Wave, 2.)
“With every ending comes a new beginning! I am so grateful to have shared this season with you, you have brought me more love, more life and most of all renewed my power! Reminded me that I can have it all!” Cardi, 31, wrote via Instagram at the time. “You’ve reminded me that I never have to choose between life, love, and my passion!”
Cardi B and Offset’s relationship has been a whirlwind with a secret wedding, a cheating scandal and two children together. The rappers tied the knot in September 2017 after having their first date at Super Bowl LI in Houston in February of that year. They announced in July 2017 that they were expecting a baby […]
She continued, “ 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!”
Alongside the message, Cardi shared a series of snaps in a red low-cut dress revealing her bump.
Cardi recently opened up about a freak accident that nearly caused a pregnancy loss. “I was going down the stairs and I slipped a little. I was gonna fall … I practically fell,” the rapper said via X Spaces on August 8. “I was trying to prevent myself from falling. So I was holding onto the railing but I still slipped and I kind of bust my ass.”
Cardi explained that she felt a “weird jerk” in her side and she could not get up. She called out to her father to help her, but when her dad came to her aid, she noticed she couldn’t walk and felt pain in her lower stomach. Cardi decided to take a nap hoping the pain would subside. However, she woke up feeling much worse.
“When I woke up, I couldn’t move my bottom at all,” she recalled. “Just moving my feet was hurting the bottom of my stomach. I couldn’t move, I felt paralyzed.”
Family goals! Cardi B and Offset have doted over their little ones through the years. “I’m sooo in love with my child. It makes me wanna cry. I don’t know what I did right for God to bless me with this beautiful, loving baby,” the “Bodak Yellow” rapper gushed via Twitter in August 2018, one […]
Cardi said she was rushed to the hospital and while being checked out by doctors, she learned that she tore a ligament in her pelvis right where her baby’s head is.
“I dilated and I was having contractions every two minutes for a whole 24 hours,” she said. “So they had to monitor me. I was in a lot of pain, I couldn’t move for two days straight.”
