Cardi B’s Cryptic Posts Spark Offset Breakup Rumors: ‘I Gotta Put Myself First’
Rap’s biggest couple may be in trouble again. Fans are speculating that Cardi B and Offset are splitting up after the “WAP” artist shared some cryptic posts about outgrowing relationships, with some noticing that the pair seem to have unfollowed one another on Instagram.
On Monday (Dec. 4) via Instagram Stories, Cardi posted two written messages typed over a blank black background. “You know when you just out grow relationships,” read the first, followed by, “I’m tired of protecting peoples feelings…I GOTTA PUT MYSELF FIRST!”
The posts that followed were business as usual, with the Grammy winner showing followers her Chick-fil-A order. But that hasn’t stopped fans from thinking that something is awry in the Cardi-Offset household. “Ooh they over,” tweeted one X user. Added another, “If offset fumbled Cardi B that’s gonna be worse than that world cup miss that woman been nothing but loyal to that man.”
While the “Up” rapper and Migos star — who’ve been married since 2017 and share two kids together — do not appear to be following each other on Instagram at press time, they are still following each other on X.
Billboard has reached out to Cardi B’s and Offset’s reps for comment.
Cardi and Offset have had a tumultuous relationship, announcing their split several times over the years, and even coming close to ending their marriage in 2020. (Cardi filed for divorce that September, but it was later dismissed by a judge.) Offset has also previously opened up about being unfaithful to his wife and how he regained her trust.
The latest breakup rumors come about five months after the couple made headlines for a social media spat in June, which started with Offset seemingly implying that Cardi had cheated on him — an accusation she quickly shut down. The next month, they teamed up for a joint song titled “Jealousy” and appeared alongside their daughter Kulture and son Wave in the track’s music video.
