Fans are awaiting the release of Cardi B's new album, "Am I the Drama?," which drops on Sept. 19, 2025. As they look forward to hearing her second studio album, they are curious about Cardi B's personal life and her three kids.
The Grammy Award-winning artist has three children with her soon-to-be-ex-husband, Offset. The rapper recently dropped his latest album, "Move On," and he was candid about the end of his marriage with the "Bodak Yellow" artist. While things may be tense between the former couple currently, they managed to have three children during their 7-year union.

Meet Cardi B’s three kids with Offset.
Cardi B and Offset — whose real name is Kiari Kendrell Cephus – have three children together: daughter Kulture Kiari Cephus, son Wave Set Cephus, and daughter Blossom Cephus. The recording artist also embraced her estranged husband's children from previous relationships — sons Jordan Cephus and Kody Cephus, and daughter Kalea Marie Cephus.
The estranged couple were secretly married in 2017, according to People. They reportedly sparked dating rumors after they went to the Super Bowl together.
"I wanted to do something that was not normally done, you know what I'm saying? I wanted to have fun," said Offset of their first date during an appearance on The Tonight Show. "So, I took her to the Super Bowl."
Offset proposed to Cardi B in Philadelphia at Power 99's Powerhouse concert and had a secret wedding on Sept. 20, 2017. At the time, the "WAP" rapper spoke about her relationship during an appearance on The Morning Mash Up.
"We're very different from each other. Yin and yang for real," she said. "But one thing that we like, both love — we both love family. We are each other's support system. I know that he backs me up a hundred percent, and I back him up a hundred percent."
Unfortunately, the couple went on to have a tumultuous relationship due to Offset's alleged infidelities. They split for a short period back in 2018 but reunited a month later. They broke up again in 2023 but quickly reunited. They broke up for a final time in 2024 just before announcing her pregnancy with daughter Blossom. Cardi B filed for divorce in July 2024.
Cardi B has spoken about her relationship with her kids and motherhood.
"With every ending comes a new beginning," she wrote on Instagram, "I love you so much, and can not wait for you to witness what you helped me accomplish, what you pushed me to do! It’s so much easier taking life’s twists, turns, and test laying down, but you, your brother and your sister have shown me why it’s worth it to push through!"
The recording artist spoke about motherhood during a recent interview with Billboard and said being a mom turned her "into a real woman."
"It turned me into a real woman. I was like, 'What makes a woman? Her body? Her cooking?' It’s her maturity and her thinking," she said. "If I didn’t have kids, I wouldn’t sacrifice so much. This summer, I haven’t even put my feet in a pool. I do everything for my kids. I’m the only provider and you know what? Ain’t no complaining about it."
"I love them so much, and they ground me," she continued. "Sometimes, I be so exhausted and it’s not even about work, it’s just life. If you think when you get rich you’re going to stop working, you’re never going to stop working. My mom used to be a freakin’ cashier and she used to work every single day."
"To this day, I still talk about how hard my mom worked. I had a very rough childhood, but my mom always made sure we ain’t go to no shelter. I want my kids to be like, 'My mom made sure I had everything that I wanted.'"
