Cardi B says she filed for divorce to teach Offset ‘lesson’

Five fun facts about record-breaking rapper Cardi B.

Cardi B is responding to Twitter theories and criticism she’s received following the news that she filed for divorce from Offset.

The 28-year-old “Press” rapper filed for divorce from the Migos rapper at a Fulton County Courthouse on Sept. 15. At the time, she said there are “no prospects for a reconciliation.”

But in tweets posted early Friday and throughout the day, Cardi may be working things out.

“If I take a break ... and I decide to work things out, that’s regular relationship (expletive),” she said in a voice message posted Friday afternoon on Twitter. “If I want to go to an extreme to teach ... a (expletive) lesson and (expletive) file for divorce, I can do that. It’s my life.”

She also responded to claims that she is in an abusive relationship with Offset, 28.

“I’m not getting (expletive) abused," she said in a voice message. “If we work things out, if we sit down and work things out and I tell a n— what I don’t like, what I want to change. When he tells me what he wants me to change, what he wants me to stop doing, we can do that. Why y’all trying to make everything abuse, abuse, abuse. Why? Chill?”

Offset and Cardi married in 2017. They have one child together, 2-year-old daughter Kulture Kiari.

As for a fan suggestion that the couple go to therapy to help them through their problems, Cardi said she takes a different approach.

“I don’t need none of that (expletive).I talk to God,” she tweeted. “My relationship is more then bag and cars before I even got my bday gift I took a break and we started talkin about our differences and wat we gotta change.”
