Cardi B took to Instagram Live on September 25 to seemingly put her soon-to-be-divorced husband and rapper Offset on blast. She said that she was being threatened because she was “moving on.” She then encouraged the other person she was addressing, suspected to be Offset, to “move on” as well. She then claimed that the duo was going into a “court war.” She then said that she is not afraid of being “exposed,” as she will “give her own tea.” The 31-year-old singer then stated that she was a “real gangster a*s b***h” as:

“One thing that I’m not going to do to you ever is entertaining your opps that be in my DMs trying to suck my p**sy. I will never do that because an opp to you is a n**ga that want you dead and I don’t want you dead because my kids love the f**k out of you.”
Cardi B then said that she just had to “f**k a n**ga that is better than you.”

As she seemingly continued to put Offset on blast, he commented under her livestream by claiming that she was involved with other men while she was pregnant. Offset said:

“U f**ked with a baby inside tell the truth!”

Netizens have since taken to social media to opine on the scandal with many seemingly siding with Cardi B. One internet user commented:

Internet users flooded Cardi B with supportive messages and uploaded her for standing up for herself. Some other comments read:

For those uninitiated, Cardi B is the mother of three children, her son Wave Set Cephus, her daughter Kulture Kiari Cephur, and a daughter she welcomed just weeks ago. She shares the children with Offset, who is also the father to sons Jordan, Kody, and Kalea from his previous relationships.

Meanwhile, some other reactions read:

Cardi B filed for divorce from Offset in July after six years of marriage. As rumors of cheating being the reason behind their separation, a rep for the former said in an exclusive statement to People magazine that their separation was “a long time coming” in reality. Meanwhile, other reactions to the live stream read:

Cardi B and Offset have had a tumultuous relationship since the beginning of their union
Cardi B and Offset started dating in February 2017 after collaborating on the former’s song Lick. After months of dating, the couple secretly tied the knot in September 2017. Months later, reports of the latter cheating on his wife appeared online.

Cardi also took to X to react to the alleged cheating by saying:

“No, it’s not right for a n**ga to cheat… But what you want me to do?… this s**t happens to everyone and I be too, you too… People handle they relationship differently so.”
Cardi B and Offset split in December 2018 after the birth of their daughter Kulture, but they reconciled the next month. In September 2020, Cardi filed for divorce after discovering Offset had cheated on her again. Despite this, they welcomed their son Wave in September 2021.

In June 2023, Offset accused Cardi of sleeping with another man, which Cardi denied on Twitter Spaces. As the duo were seen together publicly on and off, Cardi confirmed in July with Page Six that she had filed for divorce from Offset amid rumors of him cheating on her.

In August, a rep for Cardi told Page Six that her primary goal was “obtaining primary custody” of her children. Netizens now await to see what happens between the now-separated couple
