Cardi B Says She Wants a ‘Healthy Co-Parenting Relationship’ With Offset Following Split
Cardi B is loving the new chapter in life as she dives into being a single woman following her July split from estranged husband Offset, when she filed for divorce for a second time.
The Bronx bombshell joined an X Spaces Wednesday afternoon (Oct. 16), during which she provided fans with an update on all things Cardi B as she navigates motherhood for a third time after giving birth in September.
“Life has been really weird,” she said. “I’m single and I’ve been having fun, but I feel like me being single and me having fun, I have to stop it because I don’t want it to get in the way of my work … I’m paranoid to give people my time, I’m just playing around right now. [laughs] I just want peace.”
Cardi B and Offset’s relationship issues got messy and spilled over into social media while she was in France for Paris Fashion Week in late September, when the Migos rapper accused Cardi of cheating on him while pregnant.
“I feel like two weeks ago, there was a lot of beef. I feel like things are calming down right now. I don’t want to have beef with anybody that I love,” she added. “All the divorce things that happen, I want peace and I want friendship. I just want, like, a healthy co-parenting relationship, and co-parenting means no f–king, no flirting … I want peace. I want to be like my mom and my dad, they don’t f–k with each other, they just there for me and my sister.”
While she’s having fun as a single woman for the first time since becoming a superstar, Cardi doesn’t want to lose focus of her career goals.
“Baby, I’m in heat right now,” she admitted. “So far I’m having a lot of fun. Somebody gave me a reality check yesterday: ‘You out here having fun, and it could distract you from your personal life, but don’t let it distract you from your work!'”
Cardi continued regarding juggling motherhood: “I’m also balancing my motherhood right now. I feel like I gave birth five months ago, but I really have a baby, baby. Sometimes my body be feeling weird, but of course, I gave birth six weeks ago. A lot of balancing going on right now.”
On the music side, the wait continues for Cardi B’s anticipated sophomore album. She also promised that the project is coming soon, but hasn’t shared a release date yet. “Album is coming really, really soon, announcements is coming really really soon,” she vowed. “Things are getting more done now! I’m not pregnant no more.”
