In the world of celebrity relationships, few stories are as dramatic and tumultuous as that of Cardi B and Offset. From their whirlwind romance to secret weddings, infidelity scandals, public apologies, and reconciliations, the couple’s relationship has been an emotional roller-coaster, played out entirely in the public eye.

heir on-again, off-again dynamic has left fans and onlookers mesmerized and often divided, wondering what keeps them coming back to each other despite the recurring controversies.

This saga begins in early 2017 when Cardi B, fresh off her breakout in the music world, and Offset, one-third of the hit rap group Migos, started dating. The two had first crossed paths in 2016 but didn’t officially connect until 2017. By February, they were seen together, and their chemistry was undeniable.

Their relationship moved quickly, as many Hollywood romances do, with rumors of an engagement swirling by mid-2017. Cardi, ever the entertainer, playfully denied these rumors, trying to maintain some privacy amidst the growing buzz about her personal life.

However, behind the scenes, the two were already building a life together. By September 2017, Cardi and Offset secretly tied the knot in a private ceremony, keeping the details hidden from the public for nearly a year.
It wasn’t until June 2018 that fans learned they had been married all along, thanks to TMZ breaking the news. Cardi later explained that she wanted to keep that moment for herself, away from the prying eyes of the media and fans.

Yet, even during this time of newlywed bliss, cracks were beginning to show. Just one month after their wedding, Cardi posted on social media that she was single, only to later backtrack and admit that she had exaggerated in a moment of anger.

This pattern of high highs and low lows would become a defining feature of their relationship. It wasn’t long before rumors of Offset’s infidelity began to surface, and by early 2018, the first major cheating scandal hit.

Offset’s iCloud was hacked, and videos emerged showing him with another woman, allegedly dating back to September 2017—the same month he and Cardi got married.

Fans were shocked. Cardi, known for her tough, no-nonsense persona, seemed to be standing by her man despite the public betrayal. In interviews, she admitted that Offset’s cheating hurt deeply but questioned whether leaving him would truly solve anything.

“It’s not right for him to cheat,” she said in one interview, “but what do you want me to do? Go start over and get cheated on by someone else?” This pragmatism, coupled with her deep love for Offset, seemed to explain why she chose to forgive him and move forward. It also became clear that, by this time, Cardi was pregnant.

In April 2018, Cardi made headlines again, this time for revealing her pregnancy on *Saturday Night Live* in a bold, unforgettable moment. Fans celebrated with her as she stepped into the dual roles of rap queen and mother-to-be.

That summer, in July 2018, Cardi and Offset welcomed their first child, a daughter named Kulture. For a brief moment, everything seemed perfect. The couple appeared happy, sharing intimate family moments on social media, and giving fans a glimpse of their life as new parents.

But as with many celebrity relationships, peace was short-lived. By December 2018, Cardi announced on Instagram that she and Offset had separated, stating, “Things just haven’t been working out between us for a long time.”

Once again, the public was left stunned, wondering if this was the end for the couple. Offset, however, wasn’t ready to let go. He took to social media to apologize, admitting that he had messed up as a husband, and made an even grander gesture by crashing Cardi’s performance at Rolling Loud in December 2018 with a massive “Take Me Back Cardi” display made of roses.

The gesture sparked mixed reactions from fans. While some saw it as a romantic move, others criticized it as manipulative and self-serving. Cardi herself admitted that the surprise had overwhelmed her, and it was clear that Offset’s actions were not enough to immediately mend their broken trust.

Still, the couple eventually reconciled, with Cardi sharing that they had prayed together and come to an understanding. Despite this, the cracks in their relationship were far from sealed.

By 2019, the couple was back together and trying to make things work, but the pattern of infidelity and apology persisted. Cardi expressed in interviews that while she believed in forgiveness, monogamy was a non-negotiable for her.

“I will beat your ass if you cheat on me,” she warned publicly, sending a clear message to Offset and anyone else watching. However, even with this firm stance, the rumors of Offset’s infidelity never fully went away, and their relationship remained volatile.

Their third wedding anniversary in 2020 marked another turning point. Cardi filed for divorce again, citing irreconcilable differences. This time, she seemed determined to move on, telling fans that she wasn’t waiting for another scandal to erupt.

“I didn’t wait for him to cheat again. I didn’t wait for another controversy,” she explained. The divorce filing shocked fans, particularly as rumors swirled that Offset had fathered a child with another woman. Cardi quickly shut those rumors down, clarifying that her decision to leave was more about being tired of the constant arguing and public embarrassment.

However, as with every chapter in their relationship, the divorce wasn’t the end. By 2021, Cardi was pregnant with their second child, and once again, the couple seemed to be giving their relationship another chance.

At the BET Awards that year, Cardi revealed her baby bump, and in September, their son, Wave, was born. Fans were left wondering if this would finally be the turning point in their relationship. Would the couple be able to move past their tumultuous history and build a stable life together?

As the years passed, it seemed like maybe, just maybe, Cardi and Offset had found a way to make their relationship work. But by 2023, the drama resurfaced. Offset publicly accused Cardi of cheating on him in a now-deleted Instagram post, a claim Cardi vehemently denied.

The post sparked more questions about the state of their marriage, with Offset later admitting that he had been jealous and that their arguments had become more intense. Cardi’s fiery personality and Offset’s history of infidelity continued to fuel their ongoing struggles.

Things reached a new height in mid-2023 when Cardi filed for divorce for the second time. This time, the couple was expecting their third child, adding a new layer of complexity to an already fraught situation.

Fans were left wondering why Cardi would choose to go through with a divorce while pregnant, and what this meant for their family. Many took to social media to express their frustration, questioning why someone would bring a child into such a toxic relationship.

Despite the divorce filing, the couple has continued to keep fans guessing about their future. Cardi and Offset’s interactions remain public, with each new development fueling speculation about whether they will reconcile once more or finally go their separate ways.

In August 2023, Cardi appeared at the MTV Video Music Awards without Offset, further igniting rumors that the two were headed for yet another split.

In an Instagram Live session, Cardi addressed the rumors, admitting that their relationship issues were more about internal struggles than external temptations. “I’m tired of being embarrassed,” she confessed, signaling that her patience with Offset’s behavior might finally be running out.

As Cardi navigates her pregnancy and legal battles, fans are left waiting to see what the future holds for her and Offset. Will they reconcile for the sake of their growing family, or is this the final chapter in their tumultuous love story?
