As Cardi B welcomes her new baby girl into the world, we’re taking a look at the rapper’s growing family and relationship with her estranged husband Offset.

This week Cardi B, legally Belcalis Marlenis Cephus, welcomed a new baby with her ex-husband rapper Offset by her side. The 31-year-old artist shared the happy news with her fans on social media, sharing an adorable snap of her cradling her newborn.

And as fans share in excitement over the happy news, we’re taking a deeper dive into her rocky relationship in the spotlight and journey with motherhood.

This week Cardi B announced that she gave birth to a baby girl on September 7, 2024 whose name has yet to be revealed. This marks Cardi’s third child with her ex-husband Offset, legally Kiari Kendrell Cephus, who was there to support her while she gave birth in the hospital room. The WAP hitmaker first announced her pregnancy back on August 1. Her pregnancy post on Instagram began with the caption: “With every ending comes a new beginning!”

In addition to her new baby girl, Cardi is also a mother to her six-year-old daughter Kulture and two-year-old son Wave whom she also shares with her ex Offset. On Saturday Night Live in 2018, Cardi revealed that she was pregnant with her first child during her performance of ‘Be Careful’ in a figure-hugging dress revealing her baby bump following months of rumors. On July 10th, 2018 Cardi gave birth to her daughter, Kulture Kiari Cephus.

At the BET Awards in June 2021, Cardi revealed she was pregnant with her second child. She gave birth to the healthy baby boy on September 4th, 2021. In April 2022, she revealed her son’s name was Wave Set Cephus.

Cardi previously opened up about her journey with motherhood in an interview with PureWow. Sharing advice for new mothers, she said: “Be prepared for it all. Your children will challenge you, but you will love them beyond belief. I would do anything for my little babies!!”

She then sweetly went on to reflect on how “rewarding” it has been for her to be a mother and never realized how much it would mean to her before having kids. She gushed: “I love my children!! They’re my best friends.”

How long have Cardi B and Offset been together?

Cardi shares her three children with rapper Offset whom she has shared a turbulent relationship filled with cheating scandals, children, and collaborative tracks with since early 2017. Cardi and Offset secretly married on Sept. 20, 2017, before the rapper got down on one knee and proposed to her onstage during Power 99’s Powerhouse concert in Philadelphia in October that same year.

The pair were married for three years before Cardi filed for divorce from Offset on Sept. 15, 2020. At the time, she revealed to her fans that their split “wasn’t due to cheating” despite infidelity rumors. She told Billboard that she wanted to go her separate ways because “I just got tired of f—— arguing,” and added: “I got tired of not seeing things eye to eye.”

But within the same month, Cardi claimed that they had resolved their issues and the case was dismissed at the beginning of November 2020. In August of this year, Cardi filed for divorce a second time after the pair appeared to rekindle their relationship following the first bump in the road. And while they are still headed down that road, the pair have welcomed a third child together.
