The Truth About Cardi B And Offset's Relationship

After years of ups and downs, Cardi B and Offset are calling it quits. To be more specific, Cardi B is calling it quits. According to court records obtained by TMZ, the "Bodak Yellow" rapper has filed for divorce from Offset, and Offset is contesting it. Cardi B is also seeking primary custody of the couple's daughter, Kulture, and is asking for child support. Per the documents, Cardi B and Offset are separated. The news comes just over a month after Cardi B defended her tumultuous relationship with the Migos member in an August interview with Elle. She said, "I do know that my relationship has a lot of drama and everything. But there's a lot of love there's a lot of passion, there's a lot of trust, there's a big friendship. It's always us against the world." Cardi B added that she was saving further commentary on her marriage for her next album, which was then set to include a collaboration with Offset. In other words, if you want to learn more about her relationship with Offset, you can hear all about it in the music — after paying up, of course. In her words, "I'm not going to give it to you all for free." The facts about Cardi B and Offset's relationship are a bit cloudy, although that may be by design. The couple were first linked when they teased a collaboration on a track called "Lick" in December 2016. Cardi B later confirmed that they had met earlier that year. Offset publicly proposed in October 2017. In June 2018, however, TMZ revealed that Cardi B and Offset had actually tied the knot the previous September. Cardi B confirmed the secret marriage in a tweet, writing, "There are so many moments that I share with the world and then there are moments that I want to keep for myself. Getting married was one of those moments!" Cardi explained that one morning they simply, quote, "woke up and decided to get married." They promptly found someone to perform the ceremony, and enlisted Cardi B's cousin as a witness. Cardi later recounted on Twitter, "I said I do, with no dress no make up and no ring. I appreciate and love my husband so much for still wanting for me [to] have that special moment that every girl dreams of when he got down on his knee and put a ring on my finger and he did that for me!!" The honeymoon, however, didn't seem to last too long — at least as far as the gossip mill is concerned. Cardi B remained by Offset's side through rumors that he was cheating on her. In July 2018, they welcomed their daughter, Kulture — but by that December, they were broken up. Cardi addressed the split in an Instagram video, saying that she and Offset had been trying to work things out. She also stressed that they remained friends and business partners. She said, "He's always somebody that I went to to talk to, and we got a lot of love for each other, but things just haven't been working out between us for a long time." While she said that she would always have a lot of love for him as the father of her child, she said they had simply fallen out of love with each other, and she hinted that she was looking at initiating divorce proceedings. But the next month, TMZ reported that Offset and Cardi B were back together and romantically back on track. In December 2019, Cardi B opened up about their breakup and reconciliation to Vogue. She acknowledged that Offset had cheated on her, and that many people were disappointed with her choice to maintain a relationship with him despite that. But real life, she maintains, is much more complicated than her critics could know. She said, "When they say till death do us part, they not talking about little arguments like if you leave the fridge open. That's including everything." But according to the most recent reporting, everything might indeed be over for this hip hop culture power couple. Despite Cardi B's past comments expressing a commitment to her relationship with Offset, TMZ reports that this time around, the Bronx-based hitmaker has stated "there are no prospects for a reconciliation."
