Cardi B welcomes 3rd baby with Offset, weeks after filing for divorce

Cardi B welcomed her third baby, weeks after filing for divorce from her husband, Migos rapper Offset. The rap superstar posted numerous photos and video of herself in the hospital cradling her new baby daughter, who was wearing a pink hat, to Instagram on Thursday.

The post’s caption read “the prettiest lil thing” with two pink flowers and the date Sept. 7, 2024.

In one of the photos, Cardi B, whose real name is Belcalis Marlenis Cephus, is seen with Offset and their two other children. In another, Offset, whose real name is Kiari Kendrell Cephus, is cradling his newborn daughter. Offset also has three children from previous relationships, according to Entertainment Tonight.

The couple married in 2017 and have had several ups and downs in their relationship, with Cardi B filing for divorce twice previously. She announced her third filing in August, with her representative saying, “This is not based on any one particular incident, it has been a long time coming and is amicable,” The Associated Press reported.

Hours later, she revealed on Instagram she was pregnant with her third child. In the caption she wrote “With every ending comes a new beginning! I am so grateful to have shared this season with you, you have brought me more love, more life and most of all renewed my power.”

In early August, Cardi shared that she was expecting her third baby, confirming the news on her Instagram. “With every ending comes a new beginning! I am so grateful to have shared this season with you, you have brought me more love, more life and most of all renewed my power!” Cardi wrote in her caption alongside a few photos of herself in a red dress, baring her belly.

“Reminded me that I can have it all! You’ve reminded me that I never have to choose between life, love, and my passion! I love you so much and can not wait for you to witness what you helped me accomplish, what you pushed me to do!”

“It’s so much easier taking life’s twists, turns and test laying down, but you, your brother and your sister have shown me why it’s worth it to push through!” she concluded her post.

Her pregnancy announcement came only one day after the rapper filed for divorce from Offset after six years of marriage. A representative for Cardi confirmed the news to PEOPLE, saying, “It’s not based on cheating rumors, but rather has been a long time coming.”

Later in August, Cardi revealed that she’d recently experienced a “freak accident” that left her briefly “paralyzed” and almost caused a pregnancy loss in an X Spaces chat.

“I had a f–king freak accident. I don’t know how something — well, it wasn’t little, it actually hurt,” the singer said without specifying details or a diagnosis.

“It doesn’t really happen often, but it become [sic] so big to the point I was literally paralyzed,” she added. “And that little thing almost cost me my little one to come.”

Fortunately, “it didn’t,” she shared. “Yesterday I was feeling good. I came home, but I came home high as a kite.”

Cardi continued to update her fans on how she was feeling, saying, “Today, I woke up sober, honey. I’m dying, If I don’t feel good in four hours, I’m going to the hospital and I don’t give a f—.”

“I’mma exaggerate this s— so I can get more morphine. Morphine me down! I don’t give a damn,” she added with a laugh.
