Cardi B is going to be a mom of three. The rapper took to Instagram to confirm the news of being pregnant with baby number three on Thursday, August 1. The news comes shortly after the rapper filed for divorce from husband Offset.

"With every ending comes a new beginning! 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!" Cardi wrote in her caption alongside a few photos of herself in a red dress, baring her belly. "Reminded me that I can have it all! 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, what you pushed me to do!"

"It’s so much easier taking life’s twists, turns and test laying down, but you, your brother and your sister have shown me why it’s worth it to push through!" she concluded her post.

Fans quickly ran to the comments to congratulate the rapper on her baby news. One person said, “No matter what the media has to say Cardi b is a great mother.” Another person commented, “Sending you so much love! You’re amazing , you’re such a humble soul & I’m wishing you a healthy & amazing pregnancy [heart emoji].”

Cardi B's pregnancy announcement follows shortly after the news of her filing for divorce from her estranged husband, Offset ending their six-year marriage. A representative for Cardi confirmed to Page Six on Thursday, August 1, that she recently filed divorce documents and is seeking primary custody of their two children: daughter Kulture, 6, and son Wave, 2.

The rappers’ romance began in February 2017, with their first date being Super Bowl LI in Houston. By October of that year, Offset proposed to Cardi B on stage during a Migos performance in Philadelphia. It was later revealed that they had secretly married a month before the proposal.

In April 2018, Cardi announced her pregnancy when she debuted her baby bump while performing as a musical guest on Saturday Night Live.

The couple welcomed their first child, daughter Kulture Kiari, in July 2018. Cardi announced the news and their daughter’s name on an Instagram post, alongside a nude photo of herself among flowers which was taken during her pregnancy.

In June 2021, Cardi announced that she was expecting their second child. Cardi and Offset welcomed their son Wave in September 2022. Offset is also a father to sons Jordan Cephus, Kody Cephus, and daughter Kalea Marie Cephus from previous relationships.
