Offset, now a father of six, shares children with four different women. Besides Kulture and Wave, he is also the father of son Jordan, 15, from his relationship with Justine Watson, son Kody, nine, with Oriel Jamie, and daughter Kalea, nine, with Shya L'Amour. The rapper has been open about balancing his responsibilities as a father, though his growing family continues to draw attention.
This joyful news comes amid reports that Cardi and Offset are proceeding with their divorce. Despite their recent public appearances, such as at Wave's birthday party, the couple appears to be moving forward with their separation. According to sources, the two are focused on maintaining a healthy co-parenting relationship for the benefit of their children.
The couple, who had reunited briefly to celebrate Wave's third birthday at DreamWorks Water Park in New Jersey, have reportedly agreed to avoid any tension when it comes to being present for their children. Sources told TMZ that Cardi and Offset have never considered not being together for family events, and their amicable co-parenting continues to be a priority.
Cardi's pregnancy announcement came just a day after she filed for divorce from the Migos rapper on August 1. This is not the first time the couple has faced marital challenges; in September 2020, Cardi filed for divorce but decided to reconcile two months later. However, this time, it seems their decision is final.
A representative for Cardi told *People* that the current divorce filing is not related to rumors of infidelity but is instead the result of long-standing issues in their relationship. The rep stated that the separation has been a long time coming.

A close friend of the rapper also spoke to the publication, confirming that Cardi and Offset had been discussing the possibility of divorce for some time. "It wasn't a sudden decision," the source explained. "There wasn't a specific incident that led to it. Cardi has been very calm and focused on her kids throughout this entire process."
Despite the emotional weight of the divorce, Cardi remains optimistic and excited about her growing family and her career. The artist is reportedly in a good place, balancing motherhood and her work on new music. "She's happy with the new baby and recording new tracks, so things are actually going well for her," the friend added.
The pair, who have collaborated musically on several occasions, have experienced difficulties in their relationship for over a year. While their breakup marks the end of their romantic partnership, it is said to be an amicable split, with sources emphasizing that both parties want what is best for their family. Cardi’s friends, meanwhile, are hopeful that she will continue to find happiness as she embarks on this new chapter of her life.
