Cardi B is reportedly "furious" with her estranged husband, Offset, as tensions between the pair escalate in the midst of their second divorce. The "WAP" rapper, 32, has always tried to keep things civil for the sake of their children, but according to an insider, her patience has worn thin.
"Cardi tries very hard for things to be amicable with Offset. She's forgiven him for so much in the past because she wants the best for their kids," a source told People. "She's furious with Offset again. Their relationship has always been very up and down. Cardi always moves on, though."
The pair, who are parents to daughter Kulture, 6, son Wave, 3, and a newborn baby girl born in September, have faced several public ups and downs throughout their marriage. While Cardi and Offset had previously filed for divorce in 2020, only to reconcile, this latest rift appears to have pushed Cardi over the edge.
Cardi's frustration with Offset came to light in a series of since-deleted posts on X (formerly known as Twitter) on October 23, in which the rapper expressed her deep anger and disillusionment. "Bro, I wish the worst on this man," she wrote. "I never hated somebody soooo much." Cardi continued to vent, saying, "Please take this man off my hands, this garbage bag is too heavy!!" Her posts made clear that she was at her breaking point, calling Offset a "dirty ass narcissistic piece of s***" and accusing his family and friends of enabling his behavior by failing to check him.
Though fans urged her to temper her comments, reminding her that Offset is the father of her children, Cardi's anger was palpable. "Yea he is, that's why I don't wish him death ... but I truly hate this dirty ass narcissistic piece of s***," she wrote, adding that Offset has been a "dark cloud" on the lives of everyone around him.
Cardi's social media explosion came just days after a prank call to Child Protective Services (CPS) led authorities to visit her home to check on her children. Cardi went live on Instagram to share her outrage about the incident, revealing that CPS had arrived at her house at 11 p.m. to investigate claims that her children were being mistreated. Though Cardi clarified that Offset had no involvement in the call, the stress from the incident undoubtedly added fuel to her frustrations.
"So I wanna make this very fing clear, and I can't even breathe right now," Cardi said during the live stream, explaining how deeply the prank had affected her. "Motherfers have taken s*** too far when you mess with my f***ing kids." She went on to announce plans to sue CPS and the person responsible for making the false report.
To complicate matters further, Cardi's social media outburst came on the heels of her canceling a scheduled performance at ONE MusicFest due to a medical emergency. Cardi revealed on Instagram that she had been in the hospital recovering for several days and that her health would prevent her from performing. "It breaks my heart that I won't get to see my fans this weekend," she wrote, adding that she was focusing on her recovery.
Cardi and Offset's relationship has been a roller coaster for years, but the current state of their dynamic suggests the couple has hit a new low. Although Cardi is known for her candidness, her recent remarks about Offset highlight a deeper level of frustration and emotional exhaustion.
The couple, who tied the knot in 2017, have had a tumultuous relationship, with rumors of infidelity and public disputes frequently making headlines. Despite filing for divorce in 2020, they reconciled, only for Cardi to file again in July 2023. A representative for the rapper confirmed at the time that the split was not related to infidelity, but rather a long-brewing situation.
As the drama continues to unfold, one thing is clear: Cardi B's fury is not subsiding anytime soon. While she focuses on her children and her health, her explosive public feud with Offset has left fans and the public wondering whether the couple will find peace or if this marks the end of their high-profile saga.
