Cardi B has announced the arrival of her third child, a daughter, through a heartfelt Instagram post on Thursday. The 31-year-old rapper shared a series of photos from the hospital, including a touching image of herself breastfeeding, as well as snapshots of her family with the newborn. The baby’s name has yet to be disclosed.
Cardi B captioned the post with, “The prettiest lil thing 🌸🌸 9/7/24 💖💖💖,” marking the birth date of her daughter. The photos also featured her estranged husband, Offset, and their two other children, Kulture, 6, and Wave, 2, alongside the newborn. Offset, 32, also has three children from previous relationships.
This announcement comes after Cardi B publicly revealed her pregnancy on August 1, sharing photos of her baby bump on Instagram. At that time, she expressed her excitement about the new addition to her family, stating, “With every ending comes a new beginning,” and praising the forthcoming child for bringing her renewed strength and joy.
The post also served as an indication that relations between Cardi B and Offset may be amicable or at least civil, despite ongoing rumors and speculations regarding their relationship. The couple has faced recent divorce rumors, with Cardi B reportedly seeking primary custody of their children. TMZ has reported that while Offset is confirmed as the father of Cardi B’s third child, the couple is not reconciling.
Cardi B first filed for divorce from Offset in 2020 but withdrew the petition shortly after. Speculation about their relationship resurfaced this summer, fueled by Cardi B’s December 2023 comments about wanting a “new life, a new beginning.” In an Instagram Live session, Cardi B addressed rumors of infidelity involving Offset, though she expressed doubt about their validity and showed no interest in further investigation.
