Cardi B has officially filed for divorce from her husband Offset, marking the end of their seven-year marriage. This move, confirmed today, follows a period of growing distance between the couple rather than any recent cheating allegations.

Her decision to file for divorce is described as a result of a long-standing emotional disconnection.

A source close to the rapper explained, “They’ve grown apart. That’s what drove her to this decision more than anything else. This is something she wants to do.”

Contrary to earlier rumors, the divorce is not linked to recent claims of Offset’s infidelity. Instead, it reflects a deeper, ongoing issue in their relationship.

“It’s not something that happened overnight… They’ve both been on the same page. There wasn’t pushback,” the source added.

She is seeking primary custody of their two children, Kulture, 5, and Wave, 2. Although there has been speculation about her possibly expecting a third child, she has not confirmed these rumors.

The couple’s previous attempts to repair their relationship included a brief reconciliation in 2020, when Cardi initially filed for divorce but later withdrew the paperwork. Despite their efforts to make things work, the distance between them continued to grow.

In December, Cardi B hinted at her emotional state through social media, posting, “You know when you just outgrow relationships… I’m tired of protecting people’s feelings… I GOTTA PUT MYSELF FIRST!” This was seen as a precursor to the couple’s eventual separation.

Cardi also addressed rumors about her financial situation on Twitter earlier this week, writing, “LMAOOO, you bum b*tches wish… Me and Offset bought that house in 2019 for $5 million, now it’s worth $7 million. Check the Atlanta market. And no, we’re not selling it… and if I ever sold it I would just sell my part to Offset since he loves Atlanta. Throwing salt on my home? Hating bad.”

With the divorce filing, Cardi B and Offset now face the challenge of co-parenting their children while moving forward separately. Despite their public appearances and attempts to reconnect, it became clear that their relationship had run its course.

“She’s focused on moving on,” a source close to Cardi said, emphasizing her determination to prioritize her well-being and that of her children.

As they navigate this new phase, the focus remains on their children and how they will manage their future interactions. Cardi B’s decision underscores a significant shift in her personal life, reflecting the complexities of their high-profile relationship.
