The separation between Cardi B and Offset has been a highly publicized saga over the past year, capturing widespread attention from fans and media alike. Recent developments reveal that their ongoing divorce proceedings have taken an unexpected turn, with Offset reportedly seeking financial support from his ex-wife amid their complex post-marriage relationship.
According to TMZ on May 29, the Atlanta-born rapper, formerly a member of Migos, filed an amended response to their divorce earlier this month. In this document, Offset requests that Cardi B provide him with spousal support. Notably, the paperwork does not specify a particular amount, and he continues to advocate for shared custody of their children. He emphasizes that their children should primarily reside with Cardi at her home, which he believes should remain the main residence for their kids.
Cardi B initiated divorce proceedings in August 2024 after being married for seven years. Since then, the couple has been embroiled in a series of social media exchanges, exchanging photos and messages that keep their personal struggles in the public eye. That same summer, Cardi welcomed her third child, adding to her family of three children, including her eldest daughter Kulture and son Wave.

Offset recently attempted to address the ongoing turmoil publicly, posting on X (formerly Twitter): “Please keep my name out of this circus, thank you. I’m exhausted. I just want peace. Let people live their lives… I need tranquility, no drama. I love all Bardi Gang members. We’re grown adults. She’s happy, let her be. Neither of us needs to see this. Life goes on, and we can all remain friends.”
Meanwhile, Offset has announced that his upcoming musical project is officially completed and ready for release, signaling a focus on his career despite personal challenges.
For Cardi B, the anticipation surrounding her second album continues to build. Her debut album, Invasion of Privacy, released in 2018, earned her a Grammy and established her as a major force in hip-hop. Although she initially promised fans that 2024 would be the year her sophomore project would drop, the album has yet to materialize. She recently explained the delay to her followers, shedding light on the creative process and industry pressures.
“I genuinely enjoy working with talented artists,” she shared, without pointing fingers at anyone in particular. “It’s like I’m not trying to rush or cause chaos, but I’m craving that authentic energy now. I want that real vibe! Don’t miss this opportunity-I’ll handle the album myself if I have to. I love y’all and want you to understand that I’m eager to share this new music with you. No one should miss out on being part of this project.”
