American rapper Cardi B has publicly criticised her estranged husband Offset, accusing him of deliberately delaying their divorce by failing to sign the necessary paperwork.

Cardi B aired her grievances in a recent live stream on X (formerly Twitter), taking an aim at Offset for not buying Christmas presents for their children, despite appearing to show affection towards them.

She alleged that he was intentionally trying to get back at her while using their children as an excuse. Cardi B highlighted what she called his hypocrisy, noting that Offset had bought gifts for his other children in New York, while neglecting their own.

To further emphasise his lack of involvement in their family life, she revealed that he had only called their daughter once that year.

Her comments reflect the ongoing tensions in their relationship and the strain on their family dynamics.

She said: “I didn’t want to do this, but I don’t like when I’m at peace and someone wants to call me over and over, then do little things behind the scenes to annoy me. You want to see the kids? You just called your daughter for the first time this year yesterday – your newborn.

“You love your kids so much, but you didn’t buy them anything for Christmas. You go to New York to buy gifts for your other kids, but you haven’t bought my kids a thing. You’re doing this just to spite me. Stop f*cking playing with me, and sign these damn divorce papers.

“Stop using my kids as an excuse. You’re not going to use my kids as an excuse because these are the same kids you didn’t buy anything for at Christmas.”

Cardi B and Offset separated in 2023 after six years of marriage.
