Watch: Cardi B Responds After Estranged Husband Offset Accuses Her of Cheating While Pregnant

Cardi B’s mother of three era has taken off with a bang—literally.

After a night filled with social media banter with her estranged husband, Offset, Cardi woke up and chose fashion. The 31-year-old  sat front row during Mugler’s spring/summer 2025 womenswear fashion show during Paris Fashion Week, and during the Sept. 26 show she debuted a new set of fringe bangs.

Cardi sported a pair of bangs that covered her eyes on both sides, as the rest of her hair was pulled back into a French roll. While sitting front row at the presentation, the “WAP” rapper split the bangs slightly so she could see.

As for her glam, she kept it dark, lining her lips with black lip liner. And for the jewels, the “Money” rapper kept them subtle with platinum ear cuffs.

Completing the look, the mother of three—in addition to their infant, she also shares daughter Kulture, 6, and son Wave, 3, with Offset—wore a structured dress by the fashion house that had a peek a boo cutout on the chest, allowing the Grammy-winning rapper to show a little skin.

Cardi B Debuts New Look in First Public Appearance Since Giving Birth to Baby No. 3

Cardi’s front row moment at Mugler followed a long night of trading jabs on social media with the Migos group rapper. On Sept. 25, Offset—whose real name nis Kiari Kendrell Cephus—chimed in on Cardi’s Instagram Live with a damning claim that she cheated while pregnant with their baby girl, whom they welcomed earlier this month.

As Offset, with whom Cardi is currently divorcing, put it in the comments:  “U f--ked with a baby inside tell the truth!!.”

Cardi quickly hit back on X (formerly Twitter), writing “AND DID!!!!!!” which some fans have speculated may have been her confirming Offset's claims.

While speaking to her followers on her live, Cardi said while she’s thankful for their children, she “regrets” her relationship with the “Stir Fry” rapper which began in 2016.

"But f--k you, I regret you," she said. "I'm too good for you. I've always been too good for you."

Cardi filed for divorce from the rapper in August after nearly 6 years of marriage. The same day, she announced her pregnancy with their third child.

Cardi and Offset’s social media drama came the same day as the superstar made her first appearance in public following their birth of their new baby girl.

Cardi was dressed to the nines and debuted not one, but two drastic hair looks as she hit up the Rabanne RTW Spring 2025 runway show and Balmain Womenswear Spring-Summer 2025 show.
