Offset Confirms Cardi B Pregnancy Weeks Before Public Announcement

Rapper Offset appeared to acknowledge his ex-wife Cardi B’s pregnancy weeks before she made her official announcement on Wednesday, September 17, according to multiple reports circulating on social media and entertainment blogs.

Media Speculation Preceded Official News

The pregnancy rumors began spreading in late August when fans analyzed Cardi B’s recent appearances and social media posts, claiming she appeared to be concealing a baby bump. The speculation intensified following her court appearances at a California courthouse earlier this month during a civil trial where she was eventually found not liable.

Offset reportedly responded to the pregnancy rumors weeks before Cardi’s official confirmation during her CBS Mornings interview on September 17. The Migos rapper had been addressing ongoing speculation about their personal lives, particularly after fans noticed changes in Cardi’s appearance and behavior at public events.

Courtroom Confrontation Escalates Speculation

On September 1, while leaving the California courthouse, Cardi B was confronted by a reporter who asked invasive questions about whether “Offset was bragging about getting her pregnant for the fourth time” and if she foresaw “any paternity issues with NFL star Stefon Diggs”.

Cardi responded angrily to the inappropriate questioning, throwing a marker at the reporter and delivering a sharp rebuke. “Do you see women asking those type of questions to me? Why do you feel as a man you get to ask me those type of questions? Act like you have some manners. Respect women,” she said.

Official Pregnancy Confirmation

On Wednesday morning, Cardi B officially confirmed she is expecting her fourth child during an interview with Gayle King on CBS Mornings. “I’m having a baby with my boyfriend, Stefon Diggs,” the Grammy-winning rapper announced, revealing this will be her first child with the New England Patriots wide receiver.

The 32-year-old rapper shares three children with Offset: daughters Kulture Kiari, 7, and Blossom Belle, who was born in September 2024, plus son Wave Set, 3. Her divorce from Offset has not yet been finalized despite filing papers in 2024.

Strategic Timing of Announcement

Cardi revealed she had been keeping the pregnancy private to “close some deals first” before making the announcement public. The timing coincides with the release of her highly anticipated second studio album “Am I the Drama?” set to drop on Friday, September 19.

She also announced her “Little Miss Drama Tour” will begin in February 2026, with the baby expected to arrive before the tour starts. The 30-city North American tour includes a stop at Madison Square Garden in New York City on March 25.
