Culture & Entertainment
Cardi B is no stranger to keeping it all the way a buck with fans about her personal life. The "Safe" rapper is someone who's going to hear the internet fodder, and instead of dodging the questions, she'll be the one front and center, standing ten toes down in the controversy, so there's never any confusion about her position. Her latest sit-down with Call Her Daddywas no different. While promoting her new album, Am I The Drama?, Cardi was yet again an open book as she shared how she felt about her marriage to Offset.
In particular, despite all the drama, she didn't regret the love they shared.
"Even in the long marriage that I was in, there’s a lot of things that I regret, and there’s a lot of things that people are gonna be like, "You see, you wasted your time,’ but I don’t feel like it was a waste of time," Cardi revealed. Also in the interview she went on to explain that their relationship had several “separation moments” before it officially ended in her eyes, largely due to Offset’s infidelities.
“I really just don’t regret anything. It is what it is. If your heart is not ready, it’s just not ready,” she said. “I felt like I was getting really sick and it’s like, ‘Alright this is dead.’"
Why Cardi B And Offset Aren’t Officially Divorced Yet
But if you're wondering why the divorce papers haven't been signed yet, Cardi says she's not the hold-up. Like she raps on the track "Magnet" from Am I The Drama?, "Got my baby daddy actin’ like my baby mama," the rapper made the reason clear during a recent Spaces conversation. It's Offset dragging the process.
"The only reason why I'm still married is because somebody wants me to pay for their taxes," Cardi admitted, adding that her estranged husband is holding her "hostage" and demanding millions and one of her properties. "I’ma fight for that. This is not no love s---. I’m not gonna stop living my life."
And live her life is exactly what the 32-year-old is doing. With the new album already doing numbers and her recent legal victory, earlier this month Cardi announced that she has even more blessings to celebrate. She's expecting her fourth child, her first with boyfriend Stefon Diggs. After some speculation from internet sleuths, Cardi confirmed the baby news in a sit-down interview with Gayle King for CBS Mornings.
Cardi’s New Chapter: A Hit Album And A Baby On The Way
"I''m having a baby with my boyfriend, Stefon Diggs," she told Gayle in the interview, sharing she was "excited" about becoming a mom for the fourth time.
Cardi has three other children. Together with Offset, they share 7-year-old Kulture Kiari, 4-year-old Wave Set, and one-year-old Blossom Belle. Despite the relationship being fairly new and some of Stefon's own questionable headlines regarding a paternity lawsuit for a child he allegedly welcomed earlier this year, Cardi is on cloud 9 with her NFL player beau. Stefon also has an 8-year-old daughter Nova from a previous relationship.
The pair were first romantically linked in late 2024 and went public with their relationship earlier this year.
"I'm happy. I feel like I'm in a good space. I feel very strong, very powerful that I'm doing all this work — but I'm doing all this work while I'm creating a baby."
