Cardi B and Offset's romance is off once again. The "Enough" rapper has filed for divorce from the father of her children for the third time in their years-long relationship, her rep confirms to Page Six.
The divorce follows speculation that the couple had reconciled after breaking up shortly after celebrating their fifth wedding anniversary in 2023. The 31-year-old rapper had taken to Instagram Live in December 2023 to reveal that she has been "single for a minute." The breakup was the latest of several that the pair have suffered during their tumultuous relationship.
On the heels of the divorce news, Cardi revealed she's pregnant and expecting her third child with Offset.
The pair, who privately tied the knot in 2017 after a whirlwind romance, share two other children: daughter Kulture, 6, and son Wave, 2. Offset is also father to Jordan and Kalea and Kody from previous relationships.
Despite their ups and downs -- which saw Cardi previously filing for divorce twice before calling it off -- the rappers have always maintained a strong respect for one another. Here's a look at the ups and downs of Cardi B and Offset's years-long romance.
January 2017
The rappers collaborated on Cardi’s song, “Lick,” around the same time they were spotted out together. Romance rumors were quick to circulate between the two rising stars.
Feb. 5, 2017
According to a Rolling Stone article conducted with his rap group, Migos, Offset was intrigued by Cardi and her rise as an artist. He asked a publicist to set up a dinner with a group of women that included Cardi in early 2017. "I was like, 'Damn, I am on her!'" he told the publication. "I am like, ‘S**t, I like Cardi B!'" In an extremely baller move, their first date ended up being at the Super Bowl in Houston, Texas, that year, though they remained coy about their romance for months. Less than 10 days later, Cardi would post about her Valentine's Day date with her new beau, but she later deleted it.
March-April 2017
Even though they attended a New York Knicks vs Brooklyn Nets game together on March 12, the budding relationship seemed to crash to halt, at least publically, when Cardi told Fader that same month, "I'm not saying I'm dating an Altanta guy" and then wouldn't confirm if she and Offset were a couple. The following month, Offset also denied relationship rumors, simply smirking when Tim Westwood asked about his relationship status in two separate interviews. The "I Like It" rapper also chatted with Westwood, never mentioning Offset by name, but instead calling him "the boy."
April 30, 2017
The pair seemed pretty smitten when they stepped out together at a Met Gala after-party at 1OAK in New York City.
June 26, 2017
Cardi and Offset attend the 2017 BET Awards separately, with the Bronx rapper turning heads in a plunging red suit and the Atlanta native hitting the carpet with his group, Migos. In a Fader interview that same month, Cardi still does not confirm that Offset is her boyfriend.
July 2017
Holy bling, Batman! The pair were seen together backstage at a Meek Mill concert, where Cardi was rocking the personalized $60K chain given to her by Offset. Elliot Avianne, a celebrity jeweler, shared a close-up of the necklace on Instagram, captioning it "Bloody Moves" and tagging Cardi.
Aug. 27, 2017
The "I Like It" rapper shuts down engagement rumors at the 2017 MTV Video Music Awards, telling reporters that she was happy but had no plans to walk down the aisle. In fact, she was extremely direct with Charlamagne tha God on the red carpet after he asked about the rumors, singing, "Does you see a ring on my ring finger?"
Sept. 20, 2017
In what will make quite a few months of the rest of this timeline very confusing, though fans wouldn’t know it for almost a year, the couple secretly tied the knot after a series of breakups and makeups. The only person present besides the officiant was Cardi’s cousin.
Oct. 10, 2017
Despite being on tour with his group, Migos, halfway across the world in New Zealand, Offset still publicly wished his girl a very happy birthday, sharing both a sweet video in which he overlaid the message "HAPPY BDAY MI' QUEEN" as well as a candid pic of the two together. He captioned the latter, "H A P P Y B D A Y U ARE AMAZING TO ME YOU GOT IT OUT DA MUDD NO HELP NOBODY WAS BELIEVING AT FIRST BUT THAT MADE YOU GO HARDER U NOT WEAK U TAKE CARE YA WHOLE FAMILY AND ME ---- I L O V E Y O U."
Oct. 21-28, 2017
In mid-October, there was a little disagreement that caused breakup rumors to spread (a since-deleted Instagram post of Cardi that had "single" written on it didn't help), but the Bronx-born rapper would later apologize to fans for blowing things out of proportion, ended her Twitter apology, "Naaa but on a serious note I really loveeeee my man he was gifted to me from Jesus ."
Less than a week later, Offset popped the question to Cardi in front of 20,000 people during their Power 99 Powerhouse concert in Philadelphia. As we would find out later, the couple had already been secretly married at this point, but that didn’t stop Cardi from gushing about the gigantic diamond sparkler on social media. “Jesus Christ I’m so emotional, @offsetyrn I love you so much,” she wrote. “Thank you for seeing the potential in me since you met me. For giving me advice molding me and loving me.”
Dec. 13, 2017
For Offset’s 26th birthday party, the couple dazzled at his Met Gala-themed bash, “The Set Gala.” Cardi gifted her man a Rolls Royce Wraith, and later penned a sweet message for him, writing, “People see the jewelry and the money, I see the hard work you put in and how caring you are for others. You take care of family, your kids, gang and friends! You always challenge me to work harder and be better!”
December 2017-January 2018
The couple is plagued with cheating scandals, with an alleged video of Offset in a hotel room with another woman surfacing and a model claiming she was pregnant with the "Bad and Boujee" rapper's child. Both deny rumors, but Cardi isn't seen with an engagement ring during a New Year's Eve appearance. She would also later tweet her frustrations that people seemed to be forcing her to make decisions about her relationship when it was no one else's business but hers. Amidst all this, Offset also gets a tattoo of Cardi B's name on his neck, and they also attend the 2018 GRAMMYs together on Jan. 28.
March 2018
In her cover story for Cosmopolitan's April issue, Cardi got candid about the cheating rumors that had plagued her relationship with Offset from the start. “It’s like everybody is coming down my neck like, ‘Why are you not leaving him? You have low self-esteem,” she said. “I don’t have low self-esteem… I know I look good. I know I’m rich, I know I’m talented. I know I could get any man I want — any basketball player, football player. But I want to work out my s**t with my man and I don’t got to explain why.”
She went on to note, “It’s not right, what he f**king did, but people don’t know what I did, ‘cause I ain’t no angel.”
March-April 2018
First, Cardi seemingly addressed (or warned?) Offset in her March single, "Be Careful With Me." The following month, things got steamy in the music video for Cardi’s song, “Bartier Cardi,” with the couple showed off some major PDA in the back of a car.
April 7, 2018
After weeks of speculation, Cardi finally confirmed her pregnancy during an appearance as a musical guest on Saturday Night Live. The rapper wore a fitted white dress, perfectly accentuating her growing baby bump ahead of the release of her album, Invasion of Privacy. Following the reveal, she cheered, “I’m finally free!”
At the time, Offset posted a photo of himself and Cardi, writing, “Cardi and I look forward to our next chapter together.”
April 9, 2018
In an interview with GQ -- released before the pregnancy news was confirmed -- Cardi opened up about her future plans with Offset and their family, saying, "He decided, though, that we’re going to build a house in Atlanta, and that’s the house that we’re gonna raise our kids in. But my job is in New York, always, so I can barely spend time in Atlanta.”
She also addressed the cheating rumors once again. "For a long time we was in love with each other but we didn't really trust in each other... We never really trusted each other because I always feel like he could get any girl he wants -- what makes me think he's gonna want me? I think he felt the same way," she told the mag, in part.
April 19, 2018
Shortly after the pregnancy reveal, Cardi visited The Ellen DeGeneres Show, where she admitted that Offset had already chosen their future child’s name. “My dude named the baby. I really like the name,” she said. “Imma let him say the name.”
April 28, 2018
With the cat out of the bag, the expectant parents couldn’t help but show off some precious baby love at the 2018 Billboard Latin Music Awards. Cardi performed at the event, but it was Offset who was all loved up, posing while kissing Cardi’s baby bump and cradling her growing stomach backstage.
May 7, 2018
Though the two walked the red carpet at the Met Gala separately, they did take pictures together inside and at an after-party following the soiree. A couple of days later, the pregnant rapper revealed in an interview with The New York Times that she was "upset" that Offset didn't get to walk with her on the carpet. Instead, he posed for pics with his rap group, while Cardi walked with designer Jeremy Scott. She even noted that her man was originally supposed to wear the matching Moschino companion suit Jeremy donned at the gala. There was no bad blood, however; Offset simply ended up attending as a guest of Donatella Versace.
June 15, 2018
Cardi took to Instagram to share the couple's Rolling Stone cover, which features Offset kissing Cardi's bare baby bump. Emblazoned next to them on the cover were the words, "Cardi B & Offset: A Hip-Hop Love Story."
Late June 2018
Offset referred to Cardi as his “wife” when Migos accepted the BET Award for Best Group, prompting immediate speculation as to whether or not that pair had gotten secretly married. After Offset’s slip-up, Cardi confirmed that she had married the rapper the previous September in a message to her fans on social media. “There are so many moments that I share with the world and there are moments that I want to keep for myself!” she wrote. “Getting married was one of those moments! Our relationship was so new, breaking up and making up and we had a lot of growing up to do but we was so in love we didn’t want to lose each other, was one morning in September we woke up and decided to get married. We founds someone to marry us. And she did, just the two of us and my cousin. I said I do, with no dress no make up and no ring!” She also called out her haters for claiming that she was having a child out of wedlock, because, surprise, she was not.

That same day, her interview with W Magazine was released, in which infidelity was mentioned once again, where she noted that it "almost drives me crazy, because I start to believe them." She also explained why her marriage was unique -- even explaining that she basically suggested to Offest that they get married while they were in the middle of an argument. "When I got married with my dude, we still had a lot of doubts, because our relationship is not like everybody's," she told the publication. "He was always traveling, and I was always traveling. We're artists. So I used to see him, like, twice a week, and, you know, he's known for having different women, and I'm known for, like, not taking s**t from guys. But we really loved each other, and we was scared to lose each other."
Nov. 14, 2018
Cardi was loving motherhood and her husband when she spoke to ET’s Katie Krause at the launch of her Fashion Nova X Cardi B line. “He’s changing diapers, but I’ve been seeing Offset being a dad,” she told ET. “He already has three kids, so I already fell in love with the way that he was a dad already.

He added that marrying Cardi was “the best thing that’s happened” to him. “I’d seen [Cardi’s] potential, her vision, her grind,” he said. “Whatever she does, she’s going to master it. She’s like me… She brings excitement and pressure to me, but I like that… I have a wife and a child — that changed my whole everything. I was a young hothead, but now I understand the value of life.”

I told him the other day, 'Man, we should sell that porn.'" During the annual holiday concert, however, she rapped, "I turn Offset on. I told him the other day, 'We should get divorced.'” She also slyly took aim at the Migos member while performing "Bartier Cardi," putting her middle finger in the air while rapping, "Cardi got rich, they upset, Cardi put the p***y on Offset, Cartier, Cardi B brain on Offset."
Dec. 9, 2018
Cardi hopped on Instagram Live, slamming haters who claimed her marriage was fake and setting the record straight for the sake of her daughter, Kulture, who would one day be able to read all about her parents' split. "We never did anything for f**king publicity, b**ch. You think I got f**king pregnant, could've ruined my career for f**king publicity, you dumba**es? I don't regret anything because at the end of the day, I have my daughter, I learned a lot. I really knew nothing much from the music industry and my husband helped me. He made me wiser. He let me open my eyes to a lot of things and even though we're not together anymore, you know what I'm saying, I learned a lot."
That same day, Offset took to Twitter, where he pined over his ex in all-caps: "F**K YALL I MISS CARDI."
Dec. 15, 2018
Offset stormed the stage during Cardi B's headlining Rolling Loud performance to ask for her forgiveness amid cheating rumors.

"I just wanna to tell you I'm sorry, babe,” the rapper told Cardi, who looked more than irate. “In person, in front of the world, I love you. Whatever I gotta do to show you, I will.”
Social media users called the incident a PR stunt after a video surfaced of Cardi's publicist, Patientce Foster, seemingly in on it, as she was seen ushering Offset to the stage, but the "I Like It" rapper slammed those rumors in a series of NSFW posts. Still, Rolling Loud co-founder Tariq Cherif claimed in a statement to the Los Angeles Times that Cardi's management was aware of the stunt. "We were told she was going to have a guest star during her set, that it was going to be [Offset's rap trio] Migos, but we didn’t know anything about that stunt," the statement read. "We’re getting blamed as if we conspired to do this, and I just want to make it clear that we did not."

July 10, 2020
On Kulture's second birthday, Cardi defended Offset for gifting their daughter with a Birkin bag.

"Yeah, they only care about toys and candy but the thing is the kids also go outside. You know what I'm saying? Kids go to restaurants, kids go to fancy places, celebrity kids, they go do red carpets."
Cardi added, "And if I'm fly and Daddy's fly, then so is the kid. If I'm wearing Cha-nay-nay, my kid's having the same same, you know what I'm saying?" she quipped. "It's not up to what the kids like. If it was the kids, they'd be outside in diapers.

She's gonna match Mommy."

During the live session, Cardi said, "I don't know if y'all have been getting clues from me from my Live, I mean... or from my Instagram Stories, where I put certain music. When it comes to events and stuff, I don't think it's true, I don't care to find out because I have been single for a minute now."
The 31-year-old rapper acknowledged her struggle in breaking the news, saying, "I have been afraid to... not afraid, but I just don't know how to tell the world. I feel like today has been like a sign. The last time I got on Live, I kind of wanted to tell you, but I didn't know how to tell you, so I changed my mind."
Cardi emphasized that she was ready for a fresh start in 2024, expressing excitement for a new life and a new beginning.

In a new interview with Rolling Stone, Cardi B addressed her rocky relationship with her on-and-off other half, five months after she confirmed her most recent breakup from Offset back in December 2023.
While they reportedly are still legally married, their current relationship status remains hazy. They were spotted at a Miami club together on New Year's Eve and, though Cardi later confirmed they had sex that night, she also said it did not mean they were back together.
More recently, the two were photographed holding hands at a Met Gala after-party. Despite the subtle PDA, Cardi made it sound in her latest interview like they still have matters to resolve -- and, according to her, she's partly to blame when it comes to her priorities.

Cardi B is making her split from Offset official. The "Bongos" rapper filed for divorce on July 31, her rep confirmed to Page Six. This is the third time the couple has taken their breakup to the courts.
According to Page Six, Cardi is seeking primary custody of Kulture, 6, and Wave, 2.
The divorce filing came seven months after Cardi confirmed her recent breakup from Offset in December 2023. The "Press" rapper took to Instagram Live and revealed to fans that she has been "single for a while" but was unsure how to share the news with her fans.
Aug. 1, 2024
On Aug. 1, Cardi B announced she is pregnant and expecting her third child amid her divorce from her estranged husband, Offset. The GRAMMY winner announced her baby news on Instagram with an iconic reveal; a beautiful shot with a backdrop of New York City.
"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 captioned the post featuring two images of her cradling her baby bump in a revealing red dress.
She added, "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!"
The unborn child will join Cardi's older children with Offset, 6-year-old daughter Kulture and 2-year-old son Wave. The former Migos member, 32, is also father to Jordan, 14, and Kalea and Kody, both 9, from previous relationships.
