Cardi B Finally Confirms She's Pregnant With Baby No. 3 as She Flaunts Her Baby Bump in Plunging Red Dress
Cardi B is about to be a mother of three!
The musician took to Instagram with a photograph of herself in a plunging red dress to reveal the news, showing off her baby bump with a late-night cityscape serving as her backdrop.
The news came just hours after she was reported to have filed for divorce from her husband, Offset, for the second time, and she celebrated the "new beginning" that comes "with every ending."
"I am so grateful to have shared this season with you, you have brought me more love, more life and most of all renewed my power!" she wrote. "Reminded me that I can have it all! You’ve reminded me that I never have to choose between life, love, and my passion! 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!" she concluded.
Fans grew suspicious she may be expecting after the rapper skipped the BET Awards red carpet on Sunday, June 30, where she was nominated for Video of the Year, Best Collaboration with Megan Thee Stallion, and Best Female Hip Hop Artist.
Though she didn't show off one of her traditionally flashy red carpet looks—like when she literally took over the red carpet at the Met Gala earlier this year when she stepped out in an all-black strapless dress with a huge skirt that fanned out around her and across the entire carpet, requiring nine people to work together to lift and move the dress' massive skirt as she posed for photos—she did perform later that night, and her outfit choice left viewers wondering if she was hiding her baby bump, as she did with her prior pregnancies.
She wore an oversized, bedazzled jersey with the number 11 emblazoned across it, and fans were quick to point out, "We know that pregnancy uniform ??."
"Cardi look like her hot girl summer cancelled," another joked.
Cardi B and her husband Offset have been on and off for years now, with the "Bodak Yellow" rapper filing for divorce in 2020, and the two reconciling and splitting again ever since.
The two currently share a 5-year-old daughter, Kulture, and a 2-year-old son, Wave.
