Like every relationship, Cardi B and Offset’s romance started on a good note. They were deeply in love.

Cardi B, 31, and Migos rapper Offset sparked dating rumors after being spotted together at the February 2017 Super Bowl.

During the Power 99’s Powerhouse Concert which took place in Philadelphia in October 2017, 32-year-old Offset proposed to the ‘I Like It’ rapper on stage.

The couple reportedly had a secret marriage. The reason behind their decision to have a private ceremony and keep it under wraps is yet to be revealed

Despite their relationship being hit with multiple cheating scandals, they welcomed their first child, Kulture Kiari Cephus on July 10, 2018. Later that year, Cardi B took to Instagram to announce their breakup in December – but they made a quick reconciliation.

After reconciling, the couple were seen together publicly in early 2019, making an appearance on the Grammys red carpet. They presented a united front, suggesting they had resolved their issues, and continued to make public appearances, including attending the Billboard Music Awards together.

In September 2020, Cardi B filed for divorce from Offset, citing irreconcilable differences. However, they soon reconciled, and by November, Cardi B confirmed that the divorce case had been dismissed.

Each reconciliation seemed to bring news of a new addition to their family. During Migos’ performance at the BET Awards in June 2021, Cardi B announced she was expecting another child. Subsequently, they welcomed their son, Wave Set Cephus, on September 4, 2021.

In 2023, the couple faced another rough patch, leading to a breakup. Cardi B, born Belcalis Marlenis Almanzar, discussed her rocky past and reconciliation with Offset on The Jason Lee Show in January of that year. Rumors of another split spread quickly, with the couple unfollowing each other on social media. On December 11, 2023, Cardi B confirmed that she was single again.

Fast forward to July 31, 2024, fans of the couple woke up to another news that Cardi had filed for divorce from Offset for the second time, and announcing that she is pregnant and expecting her third child in an Instagram post.

Will the birth of Cardi B and Offset’s third child reconcile them again? Drop your thoughts in the comments.
