Cardi B has some issues with an “exclusive source” who has been leaking details of her impending divorce from Offset.
On Saturday (August 3), the “Bodak Yellow” rapper took to the comments section of a Jasmine Brand Instagram post to respond to its summary of a recent article from People.
The article, published on Friday (August 2), quoted an “exclusive source” giving insight into what caused Cardi to file for divorce from her husband earlier this week.
The source told People: “As a mom, she expects a partner that contributes fully and that puts the family first. This just wasn’t happening. In general, he just doesn’t support her like a husband should. She needs good vibes and positive energy only in her life.”
Cardi took issue with this, writing in the comments: “Ok this is getting weird cause I can say he helps me a lot with my business and the kids.”
She continued, taking issue with the notion that People‘s source had any inside scoop at all.
“Never in my career no matter what I went through I had friends or family go to the media sooo I don’t know who is this damn source going to people magazine,” she continued.
“Even wit my filling I’m not askin for child support my claim is for him to only pay for the bills he already pays on the kids and the new one.”

The news of Cardi and Offset’s divorce was reported on Thursday (August 1) by TMZ, with the outlet claiming that the Bronx rap star’s decision isn’t related to cheating rumors, which have plagued their seven-year relationship.
A source close to the couple says the divorce filing has been “a long time coming” and Cardi and Offset have simply been growing apart for a while.
The insider adds that the Hip Hop power couple made an effort to reconcile earlier this year, but were unable to work through their issues.
While the split is described as amicable, Cardi has reportedly already hired a high-powered divorce lawyer and is seeking primary custody of their two children, six-year-old Kulture and two-year-old Wave.
The couple married in September 2017 after months of dating, but their honeymoon period was quickly rocked by a cheating scandal when Offset was seemingly filmed naked with another woman.
Cardi later filed for divorce in 2020 but ultimately withdrew.
