00:00
Cardi B has filed for divorce.
00:03
She's not talking about it.
00:04
She's actually done it and we know why.
00:08
So we have told you that, you know,
00:10
there were these rumors going around
00:13
about maybe Offset was cheating again
00:16
because of this photo that came out the other day.
00:19
Turns out the photo has nothing to do with this.
00:23
It is as simple as two of them have just grown apart.
00:27
They have gone in different directions
00:29
and as it was put to us, this was a long time in coming.
00:33
Yeah.
00:34
A long time in coming.
00:35
And there's been rumors about this for a long time as well.
00:37
And this isn't the only big news
00:39
from Cardi B coming out today.
00:41
Well, we're gonna get into the second part.
00:44
Well, we might as well get into it now.
00:45
She's pregnant, which does complicate things, right,
00:48
in the middle of a divorce.
00:50
Right.
00:50
But she is pregnant and she kind of talked about
00:55
this kind of bookend thing where the marriage is ending,
01:00
but she's having a baby.
01:01
And here's what she said.
01:01
She said, with every ending comes a new beginning.
01:04
This is Cardi essentially talking to her baby
01:07
with an Instagram caption.
01:09
Saying, I'm so grateful to have shared this season with you.
01:11
You have brought me more love, more life,
01:13
and most of all, renewed my power.
01:16
I love you so much and cannot wait for you to witness
01:19
what you helped me accomplish, what you pushed me to do.
01:22
Now this would, Cardi has two other kids as well.
01:26
And this would be her third child.
01:29
And they'd been kind of quiet about this whole thing,
01:31
pretending like she wasn't pregnant.
01:33
Not just quiet, but we got these pictures
01:36
that we put up early this morning
01:37
before the pregnancy announcement.
01:39
This is on the streets of New York City.
01:42
Right.
01:43
Cardi B, if you take a close look there,
01:46
yeah, you can kind of connect the dots.
01:48
The stomach is out.
01:49
Stomach is out.
01:50
If you notice in the wider shot,
01:52
there were umbrellas that were shielding her.
01:55
But it's so weird because this was on the streets,
01:59
the crowded streets in New York City.
02:01
And by the way, this is kind of what Harvey does
02:03
when he goes out on the streets.
02:04
He has five people with umbrellas.
02:05
That's exactly what it is.
02:06
Hiding him from the public.
02:07
Can you imagine if this is your ghetto going out there?
02:10
That's crazy.
02:12
Just walk with a traveling crew of people holding umbrellas.
02:16
Right, because she has to get to a car or something.
02:18
But if you're trying to hide the pregnancy,
02:20
why have the shirt open?
02:22
I mean, there are other outfits that you could wear.
02:25
You're trying to hide that.
02:26
Here's what I think.
02:26
I think my recon is she's doing a big magazine shoot.
02:31
This could be for Vogue,
02:32
but she's doing some kind of a magazine shoot.
02:34
And maybe they were gonna announce it
02:37
online with a magazine.
02:38
I don't know, but she decided to do it today.
02:41
And by the way, in the divorce,
02:43
she is asking for primary custody,
02:45
not just of the two children,
02:46
but presumably the child that's about to be born.
02:50
It is amicable, we're told.
02:52
And they have talked about...
02:56
Let's play this, because back in December,
03:00
Cardi gave a big clue about the state of the marriage.
03:05
And what it turns out, what we're finding out now,
03:08
what she said back then, was the beginning of the end.
03:12
The career-wise, financially, and personal life,
03:15
I know where I wanna be at next year.
03:18
You know what I'm saying?
03:19
And so you gotta get rid of that weight.
03:24
When it comes to people,
03:25
we always wanna protect their feelings.
03:26
We always wanna protect their image.
03:29
We just wanna protect people.
03:32
Like, how will they feel?
03:34
Or how will life without me will be for them?
03:38
F*** that.
03:41
You know, this is no surprise
03:42
if you've been following Cardi and Offset's relationship.
03:45
It's been tumultuous for quite some time.
03:46
Like you said, we just played the sound
03:48
from her back in December,
03:49
and she basically was telling Offset
03:51
she's gotta protect herself
03:52
and she has to leave this relationship.
03:54
So to see that she's finally filed now,
03:57
it's actually a little surprising that it took this long,
03:59
but I think maybe because she did know she was pregnant,
04:01
and in those photos, she looks pretty far along,
04:04
and even in her announcement, she looks pretty far along.
04:07
So it seems like maybe the pregnancy
04:08
is what kept her around for so long,
04:10
and maybe she was on the fence.
04:12
Do I actually leave this guy?
04:13
He's the father of my three children.
04:15
Do I try to stay and make it work?
04:16
And then on the heels of this photo,
04:18
even though she's claiming that the photos
04:20
have nothing to do with it,
04:21
I'm referring to the photo of Offset
04:23
with the woman he had prior been linked
04:25
to cheating with Cardi with,
04:27
was just the end of the straw.
04:28
I don't care if he wasn't doing it,
04:29
he shouldn't have been photographed with her to begin with,
04:31
and I feel like with Cardi being pregnant,
04:33
she's stressed out, she's hormonal,
04:35
she sees this and she just says,
04:36
you know what, I'm done, enough is enough.
04:38
I have to put myself and now my three kids first.
04:41
I will say this though.
04:44
I was on the phone with people
04:45
who are kind of in the middle of all of this last night,
04:49
and what we were told is that this has nothing to do
04:54
with cheating or the other woman,
04:56
that this has been going on for months and months and months.
04:59
They tried to save it, they worked on it,
05:01
but they've just grown further and further apart, so.
05:04
What do you read into the caption that she posted online
05:08
essentially saying this baby is helping her
05:10
to push her to set her free?
05:12
I don't know.
05:14
I have no idea.
05:17
Hello, I'm Harry from London.
05:19
I think that Cardi has given Offset
05:22
many chances over the years,
05:24
and I actually feel like Offset sees Cardi
05:27
as quite like a threat.
05:29
She's like a huge artist, a lot bigger than he is,
05:32
so maybe she just sees him as a threat.
05:34
Yeah, I mean, it's probably all of that.
05:37
It's probably all of that.
05:38
I mean, remember, by the way,
05:39
she filed a couple of years ago
05:42
and then withdrew the divorce
05:44
and we're told this time that ain't gonna happen.
05:45
At least that's what they say.
05:46
That's what they say now,
05:47
but they also said yesterday that she wasn't pregnant,
05:49
so things can change.
05:51
That's true, too, that's true, too.
05:53
We just feel for the kids involved in all this as well.
05:55
Yeah, I know, but it sounds like, you know what,
05:58
it does sound like that I believe them
06:01
when we're told that it's amicable, so we'll see.
