Cardi B & Offset Share Emotional Messages on Their Anniversary: ‘You Are My Safe Place In This Crazy World’
There’s nothing stopping Cardi B and Offset’s love story — not even that infamous Michael Jackson tattoo. The power couple celebrated their sixth wedding anniversary with an elaborate floral display and heartfelt Instagram tributes on Wednesday (Sept. 20).
“Thank you sooo much baby 💕 Thank you for the flowers, the empowerment, the protection and for being a great father to our children… I love so many things about you. I love the fact that I’m with a grown ass man that’s going to provide , protect and help both of us GROW and can handle my mouth ,my attitude,my confidence my weakness and all this ASS!!😜” Cardi wrote. “MY FAVORITE FAVORITE FAVORITE thing about you is that you study me and always pay attention to what I’m into From my favorite colors, my favorite brands to MY FAVORITE foods… I love that you into details like me because it’s always the lil things that make me smile or even drive me off the wall 😩Happy anniversary to US”
In the video Cardi posted to her page, she thanks Offset — “I love you, thank you!” she squeals — as she shows off tons of pink and red roses arranged in a gorgeous collection of bouquets, with scores of lit candles adorning either side of the display. In a comment underneath the post, Offset wrote, “I love you 4Ever.”
Beyoncé & Diddy’s “Summertime” — a song from the soundtrack to the 2003 musical comedy The Fighting Temptations — plays in the background as Cardi sings along. She emphasizes the lyrics, “Wanna grow old wit’ ya/ Fill a house wit’ your pictures/ Have a son for you, a little girl for me/ Together we’ll raise a family.” Cardi and Offset do, in fact, “have a son for [him], a little girl for [her]” — daughter Kulture Kiari Cephus, 5, and Wave Set Cephus, 2.
Offset — who recently dropped a music video that nods at the King of Pop — also posted clips of his anniversary gift, as well as an emotional message to Cardi on his Instagram page. “Happy anniversary my beautiful Gorgeous Pretty Wife. Since I met you I grown to become a better man no matter what you have my back and I can trust you with my life blessed to have a loyal strong woman on my side,” he wrote. “You blessed me with beautiful kids you are my safe place in this crazy world 🌎 you believe in me more than I do sometimes… I couldn’t imagine a life without you….. we gone continue life together I LOVE YOU ❤️”
The “FAN” rapper posted a photoset consisting of Cardi posing with her flowers in a cozy, no-frills home photoshoot. She pairs furry rainbow slides with a simple figure-hugging pink dress as she smiles for the camera. Cardi also took a trip to Offset’s comment section, replying, “Ride for you 🏎️ and you know that.”
Cardi and Offset’s romance began in early 2017. By June of the following year, the “Money” rapper confirmed that she and Offset married the September prior, one month before the Migos rapper publicly proposed to her. The couple’s Instagram tributes come a few months after Cardi hinted at an official wedding via X (formerly Twitter) last year.
2023 has been a solid year for both Cardi and Offset, career-wise. She is fresh off the release of “Bongos,” her newest collaboration with Megan Thee Stallion, which debuted at No. 14 on the Billboard Hot 100. Bardi and Thee Stallion linked up to perform the song at the MTV Video Music Awards on Sept. 12, where Cardi was nominated alongside GloRilla for the best hip-hop. Offset is gearing up for the release of sophomore studio album Set It Off, which is scheduled to drop on Oct. 13. And back in July, the couple released “Jealousy” — their sixth collaboration as soloists — which peaked at No. 55 on the Hot 100.
