Cardi B has filed for divorce from rapper husband Offset after three years of marriage.

Cardi B, whose real name is Belcalis Marleniz Almánzar, had filed for a divorce petition on September 15, Tuesday, at Fulton County, Georgie. She requested to terminate her marriage with the Migos rapper Offset, whose real name is Kiara Kendrell Cephus.

According to the divorce petition, Cardi B is demanding legal and primary physical custody of the couple's two-year-old daughter, Culture. She is also requesting an equal division of their marital assets, as well as for Offset to pay for both child support and all of the legal fees from the divorce.

The two first wed in September 2017. A month later, Offset publically proposed to Cardi B a month later, offering her a giant engagement ring while on stage performing at a Philadelphia concert.

Back in December 2018, the same day Cardi B first introduced her daughter Kulture to the world on Instagram, she revealed that she and Offset were no longer together. At that time, an alleged mistress, model Summer Bunni, came out with a tearful apology, saying she felt ashamed and that it was never her intention to break up "a happy home".

In a now-deleted Instagram video, Cardi B said at the time that the two had been trying to make their relationship last, but that it hasn't been working out between them for a while. Still, she stressed that it's nobody's fault and that they simply fell out of love. She informed the fans that they are still friends and business partners, and she still loves him because he is her daughter's father.

Following that, Offset tweeted "F*CK YALL I MISS CARDI". During Cardi B's set at the Rolling Loud Music Festival in Los Angeles, he attempted to win her heart again. He rolled onstage with an elaborate flower arrangement that spelled out "TAKE ME BACK CARDI". However, she was not having it. She shook her head at her husband and had an inaudible word with him before sending him offstage.

In 2019, however, the two seemed to have patched things up. The duo showed up together at Grammys in January 2019. In February, she informed reporters that the two were working it out. In March, Offset appeared on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" and confessed that he loves his wife. He told the host that he "stepped to it like a man" and admitted he was wrong.
