Cardi B seemingly shut down rumors that she got back together with her husband, Offset, after the estranged couple reunited for Christmas with their kids.
A viral tweet by @TheePopFeed claimed Wednesday, “Cardi B has officially took Offset back after 12 days.” A fan then responded with a clip of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Kandi Burruss telling co-star Porsha Williams, “You just made that up.”
Eagle-eyed fans noticed that the “Be Careful” rapper, 31, “liked” the video, all but confirming the original tweet was incorrect.
“They don’t expect people who have kids together to co-parent,” one fan replied.
“Could she not have gone for herself and Wave,” another supporter asked.
“Y’all be going hard on Cardi. Like this some dude she just messing around with. This is her husband, her kid’s father,” a third pointed out. “Let them deal with their MARRIAGE I know a lot of y’all don’t know how that goes but folks go through s–t but don’t mean a united front won’t happen for them kids!”
Fans were convinced Cardi and Offset rekindled their relationship just weeks after their latest breakup when the pair celebrated Christmas together with their two kids: Kulture, 5, and Wave, 2.
Cardi and the Migos member, 32, both posted videos on social media of their little ones opening presents, causing many followers to believe their marriage was back on.
However, several social media users pointed out that the couple likely got together for the holidays for the sake of their young children.
“Glad they can handle co-parenting without making any scandal. Happy for their children,” one fan gushed.
“They ain’t back together, just co-parenting for Kulture. Respect that,” a second person wrote.
Cardi and Offset first sparked breakup speculation earlier this month when they unfollowed each other on social media. The “WAP” rapper confirmed their separation days later.
At the time, rumors swirled that the “Walk It Talk It” MC had cheated on his wife with fellow rapper Chrisean Rock — which he denied.
Cardi admitted she did not know whether the infidelity chatter was true but said she wanted to move on from her husband, whom she secretly married in September 2017.
“This isn’t the first time cheating rumors have rocked their marriage.”
They briefly separated in late 2020 amid speculation that Offset had been unfaithful multiple times. However, Cardi forgave him, and they got back together soon after.
More recently, Offset accused Cardi of cheating on him this past June. However, the “Hustlers” actress vehemently denied the claim.
Offset is also a father to three children from previous relationships: Jordan, 14, Kody, 8, and Kalea Marie, 8.
