Cardi B filed for divorce from Offset last year

Fans have been left speechless after Cardi B revealed how much she spends on her and Offset’s three children.

The ‘WAP’ singer and the ‘Migos’ rapper were together from 2017 till 2024, when Cardi B filed for divorce for a second time, having previously done so in 2020 before calling it off.

She initially revealed that she had been ‘single for a minute’ on her Instagram Live, adding: “But I have been afraid… not afraid I just don’t know how to tell the world.”

She also revealed that she was pregnant with their third child, a daughter who she gave birth to in September last year.

Cardi B has never been someone to shy away from speaking her mind, and in a recent post on X Spaces on Friday (May 30), she revealed the cost of her three children’s lifestyles.

Her response came as a result of Offset, 33, allegedly filing spousal support, according to People Magazine.

According to the rapper, her kids, Kulture, 6, Wave, 3, and Blossom, 8 months, apparently indulge in numerous activities, share a personal driver and take weekly classes – all of which she claims that she pays for herself.

“Y’all want to know what’s the kids’ bills? Start adding,” Cardi said. “My kids got their own driver. The kids’ driver is on a retainer for $10,000 a month.”

The 32-year-old then slammed Offset for allegedly not helping out on Kulture’s private school tuition costs, which she said amounts to around $45,000.

“Kulture and Wave gets tutoring four times a week,” she revealed. “Kulture’s piano class-that’s $300 an hour, and she gets piano classes three times a week. I’m not sure how much is gymnastic and Wave’s boxing classes, but I pay for that, too.”

She went on to say that her cousin babysits her two eldest kids for ‘$3,000 a week’, adding that she has her own nanny, who is paid $500 each shift because ‘she’s only staying in the daytime.’

“This is not even including food,” she added: “My kids have a personal chef that come from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. that I pay for because people in my house don’t have time to cook.”

Cardi B also pays for 24-hour security team to be stationed outside of the home because of alleged ‘threats’ the family has received in the past.

“I bought that s**t with my sweat and tears,” she claimed, before seemingly addressing her ex by saying: “You have left me with the kids’ bill.”

Meanwhile, fans online were stunned by her claims, as one person wrote: “Cardi pays her kids driver $10K a month sign me up.”

Someone else said: “3k a week to babysit?? Gah damn”, while another wrote: “The cousin gettin paid 3k a week to babysitttt IS TEAAAA!!”

Offset’s reason to spousal support filing as Cardi B stuns fans with breakdown of monthly costs for their children

Cardi B has hit back at Offset as she revealed how much she spends on her children

Offset’s reason to a spousal support filing has been detailed after Cardi B shocked fans with a breakdown of monthly costs for their children.

Cardi B was with fellow rapper Offset from 2017 till 2024, and the pair share three children, the most recent being born in September last year after their second divorce filing had gone through.

It was TMZ that initially reported that Offset requested spousal support, but no specific amount was detailed.

A spokesperson for Offset told The Breakfast Club the rapper ‘does not need the money’ amid recent reports, and that his estranged wife ‘was trying to come at him on things that were not fair’.

Offset’s reported reasoning for the filing is because Cardi was allegedly asking for ‘everything’, including properties and cars.

On top of that, Offset filed the spousal support ‘because Cardi B is barely ever with their kids’, according to his spokesperson.

Amid all of that, Cardi has revealed how much she spends on her children and it definitely surprised a lot of fans.

According to Cardi, her kids Kulture, six, Wave, three, and Blossom, 8 months, share a driver who earns a decent wage for a month’s work.

“Y’all want to know what’s the kids’ bills? Start adding,” Cardi said. “My kids got their own driver. The kids’ driver is on a retainer for $10,000 a month.”

The singer did not clarify however how much was actually spent.

Cardi then accused Offset of not helping out financially for Kulture’s private school tuition costs, which she said amounted to around $45,000.

On top of that, she noted both Kulture and Wave get tutoring four times a week.

Cardi has also claimed her two eldest children have a ton of hobbies, and are both into their music and sports.

She said: “Kulture’s piano class – that’s $300 an hour, and she gets piano classes three times a week. I’m not sure how much gymnastics and Wave’s boxing classes, but I pay for that, too.”

The rapper has also explained that her cousin often babysits her children for $3,000 a week on top of what she pays her own nanny. The nanny reportedly is paid a whopping $500 each shift because ‘she’s only staying in the daytime’.
