The ongoing separation between rap superstars Cardi B and Offset has taken a new and dramatic turn. According to multiple reports circulating online, Offset has allegedly demanded a significantly larger share of the couple’s marital assets — up to 70% — and is also seeking spousal and potential child support from the “Bodak Yellow” rapper.

What began as a love story that once defined hip-hop’s power couple era has now turned into one of the most talked-about celebrity disputes of the year — one that has sparked heated conversations about gender roles, equality, and parental responsibility in high-profile relationships.

The Alleged Dispute Over Spousal Support

According to unconfirmed insider reports, Offset reportedly told Cardi B that if her main reason for refusing to pay him half of her $101 million fortune was “because of the children,” then he would be willing to take full custody of the kids himself.

He allegedly argued that doing so would make her responsible for both spousal support and child support, claiming it would only be fair considering their financial disparity and the sacrifices he has made for the family.

Offset is quoted as saying that it would be “gender inequality” for society to assume that just because he is a man, he can’t take care of his own children as effectively as their mother could. He reportedly emphasized that he has always been present in their children’s lives and that fatherhood is not defined by gender stereotypes.

Sources close to Offset claim that his mother has even offered to help him take care of the kids if needed — a move that many see as a sign that he is serious about pursuing custody if the legal battle intensifies.

A Father’s Stand or a Power Play?

Reactions to Offset’s reported stance have been deeply divided. Some fans have praised the rapper, calling his actions a “power move” and arguing that he’s right to challenge the double standards that often exist when it comes to custody and financial support.

One social media post that went viral read:

“If a woman can get spousal and child support after a breakup, why can’t a man? Equality means both sides should have the same rights.”

Others, however, see the move as strategic — a way for Offset to gain leverage in divorce negotiations or publicly reshape the narrative of their split.

Cardi B’s fanbase, known for its fierce loyalty, has criticized the reported demands, accusing Offset of “playing victim” despite his own controversies in the marriage.

Cardi B Reportedly Agrees to Pay Spousal Support

In a surprising development, reports claim that Cardi B has agreed to pay Offset spousal support, though the details remain confidential. Cardi B’s net worth is estimated at $101 million, largely from her chart-topping music career, endorsement deals, and fashion collaborations.

While traditional marital law would likely result in a 50/50 split, Offset is said to be pushing for a 70/30 division in his favor. The rapper allegedly argues that Cardi B “left him with the children” while she continued to pursue her career and personal life — even claiming she became romantically involved with another man while they were still legally married.

Those allegations, though unverified, have fueled speculation that Offset may be attempting to build a case for both financial and emotional damages, positioning himself as the more stable and present parent.

A Complicated Love Story

Cardi B and Offset’s relationship has been anything but ordinary. The two began dating in 2017 and quickly became one of hip-hop’s most talked-about couples. Their chemistry was undeniable, and in September of that year, they secretly tied the knot.

But within months, rumors of infidelity began to swirl. Cardi B publicly announced a split in 2018 but later reconciled with Offset after a very public apology from him — complete with flowers, apologies, and even an onstage plea for forgiveness.

They welcomed their first child, Kulture Kiari Cephus, in 2018, and their second child, Wave Set Cephus, in 2021. Despite their ups and downs, the couple continued to present a united front until late 2024, when rumors of a final separation began circulating.

Now, the alleged legal battle suggests that the pair’s personal issues have finally spilled over into the courtroom.
