Cardi and Offset share two children together, their daughter Kulture (5) and son Wave (2). The outlet confirms that Cardi’s main focus at the moment is “obtaining primary custody” of their children. According to sources close to the outlet, the divorce is “not a surprise” to Offset, as the two have been, “trying to figure out what their future looks like for a while now.”
“It’s not something that happened overnight,” the source told Page Six. “They’ve both been on the same page. There wasn’t [pushback]. They’ve grown apart and that feeling has gotten stronger over time. It’s become unavoidable.”
As The Root previously reported, this is not the first time Cardi has filed for divorce from the rapper. In 2020, Cardi first filed, reportedly happening after rumors of infidelity on Offset’s side. At the time, People reported that the relationship between the two was “irretrievably broken” and that there were “no prospects for a reconciliation.”
The two eventually did reconcile months after she first filed, as The Root reported. In November 202o, the divorce was dismissed “without prejudice.” Since then, the two have remained together but not without rumors and hiccups, with Cardi often taking to social media with cryptic messages surrounding outgrowing relationships and putting herself “first.”
Earlier this year, however, it did seem as if the two were still working on their marriage, as they were spotted on a date night just this April. But now, Cardi is reportedly focused on, “moving on.”
“She has no ill will towards him,” the source tells Page Six. “She’s wishing him the best. She’s not going into this next season [of her life] with any beef or any drama. She wants everything to be very peaceful.”
