Cardi B Divorce Filing ‘Wasn’t an Easy Decision’: Offset ‘Doesn’t Support Her Like a Husband Should’ (Exclusive Source)
The star considered her marriage to be “more of a distraction than support,” the source tells PEOPLE exclusively
Cardi B’s decision to file for divorce from Offset was a difficult one for her to navigate, but “a long time coming.”
A source exclusively tells PEOPLE that “filing for divorce again wasn’t an easy decision” for the rapper. “She has two kids already, is pregnant and is also a working mom. She’d love to have a great marriage too, but since it’s more of a distraction than support, she needs to end it.”
Additionally, the insider notes that people close to Cardi, 31, “support” her decision to end the marriage.
“It’s been a long time coming,” they add. “It’s not just one issue. She’s matured a lot. She knows exactly what she wants her life to look like. She’s super focused on her kids and work.”
Despite issues between the couple leading to them dissolving their union, the source maintains “they are still friendly and will co-parent” their children: daughter Kulture Kiari, 6, and son Wave Set, 2½.
Cardi and her rapper husband, 32, have had an on-and-off again relationship since they first wed in September 2017, with issues often stemming from alleged instances of Offset’s infidelity.
Cardi and Offset announced they were splitting in 2018, but ultimately reconciled. Cardi then formally filed for divorce in September 2020, which the pair also called off.
