Surprise! Cardi B Reveals She’s Pregnant with Third Child

Cardi B is back with some big news, and this time, it's all about family!

The rapper took to Instagram on August 1st to reveal that she’s expecting her third child, and as usual, she did it with style. Draped in a silky, luxurious red gown and matching fur coat, Cardi cradled her baby bump in a pair of stunning photos, radiating happiness and confidence, that instantly set the internet on fire.

“With every ending comes a new beginning!” she captioned the Instagram announcement post, hinting at the whirlwind of emotions she’s been through lately. Addressing her unborn child, she poured her heart out, saying, “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! Reminded me that I can have it all!” It’s the kind of heartfelt message that only Cardi B could deliver, mixing raw emotion with her signature flair.

"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 [and] what you pushed me to do! It’s so much easier taking life’s twists, turns and tests lying down, but you, your brother and your sister have shown me why it’s worth it to push through," she concluded.

But wait, there’s more! The pregnancy announcement came just hours after news broke that Cardi B had filed for divorce from Offset…again. Yes, you read that right. The couple, who tied the knot in September 2017, have had their fair share of ups and downs, and this marks the second time Cardi B has filed for divorce. According to her representative, the split “is not based on any one particular incident, it has been a long time coming and is amicable.” Talk about a day full of headlines!

Cardi B and Offset‘s relationship has been quite the roller coaster ride, from baby bumps to bumps in the road. The duo’s relationship began in early 2017 and has since brought cheating scandals, a secret marriage, two adorable kids, and some hot collaborative tracks.

Cardi B and Offset secretly married on Sept. 20, 2017, before the Migos rapper proposed to her onstage at Power 99’s Powerhouse concert in Philadelphia in October that same year. According to the Fulton County Magistrate in Georgia, Cardi filed for divorce from Offset nearly three years later, on Sept. 15, 2020. The two eventually got back together weeks later, and are stronger than ever — for the most part.

The duo also share two adorable kids: Kulture Kiari Cephus, who’s already 6 years old, and Wave Set Cephus, who’s almost 3. And if you remember, Cardi B knows how to make a splash when it comes to revealing baby bumps. Back in 2018, she debuted her bump during a performance on Saturday Night Live (SNL), and in 2021, she showed off her growing belly at the BET Awards during a Migos performance. This time, though, the reveal felt even more special, tinged with both joy and the bittersweet reality of her evolving relationship with Offset.

Of course, the internet exploded with reactions as soon as the photos hit the ‘Gram. Fans and celebrities rushed to the comments to shower the beloved rapper with love and congratulations. And can we talk about that caption again? “It’s so much easier taking life’s twists, turns, and tests laying down, but you, your brother, and your sister have shown me why it’s worth it to push through!” Leave it to Cardi to drop some wisdom while looking absolutely fabulous!

So, what’s next for Cardi B? Well, one thing’s for sure: she’s got a lot on her plate, but if anyone can handle it all, it’s her. With baby number three on the way and a career that’s still soaring, Cardi B’s future looks brighter than ever. And who knows? Maybe this new chapter will inspire even more chart-topping hits. After all, if there’s one thing Cardi B has proven, it’s that she’s always ready for the next big thing—whether that’s a new baby, a new hit, or a whole new beginning.
