Cardi B ‘Would Have Killed’ Offset If They’d Stayed Together

Cardi B would have “ended up killing” Offset if they were still together.

The 32-year-old rapper married the Migos star – with whom she has children Kulture, six, Wave, three, and eight-month-old Blossom – in 2017 but filed for divorce until 2020, though they later continued an on/off relationship before parting for good in July last year, and she’s admitted she felt she was “losing [her] mind” towards the end of their marriage.

Speaking on X Spaces, People magazine reports she said: “I don’t think people understand how tired I was. How tired, how mentally drained I was.

“Drained, drained, drained. Couldn’t eat. I was getting frequent headaches. I was literally losing my mind.

“I was literally losing my mind. And I gave it chances after chances after chances after chances after chances after chances.

“[If I was] still there, I was going to end up going to jail, ‘cause I was going to end up killing them. Seriously, with my own bare hands. ‘Cause it was just getting so … it was just getting too much.”

The ‘WAP’ hitmaker stressed there were “more” problems in their marriage than just infidelity.

She noted outsiders view the situation as: “Oh, you left somebody because they were cheating on you.”

But she explained it was also “the constant lies, the gaslighting.”

She added: “It was really messing up with my head.

“I was so depressed, ‘cause the lies, the constant drama. I would wake up every single morning paranoid.”

At one point, before she and Offset reconciled and had their third child, Cardi’s worried management team wanted her to see a therapist.

She said: “I did therapy and I tried and I fell back in love again and I decided to have my baby and everything, and it’s just like, when it’s the end of something it’s literally the end of something. And I don’t know what people wanted me to do.”

But the ‘Up’ rapper is now in a good place and enjoying her romance with Steffon Diggs.
