Offset is pushing back against a viral rumor that reignited tension between him and Cardi B, insisting he never posted or deleted an Instagram Story related to Cardi B and Stefon Diggs’ newborn son.
The controversy erupted after a screenshot began circulating across social media, appearing to show Offset writing, “My kid lol” — a message users interpreted as him claiming legal or personal rights over Cardi’s new baby with the New England Patriots star. Because Cardi and Offset are still legally married, fans immediately tied the post to Georgia’s paternity laws, fueling even more speculation.
But according to Offset, the entire screenshot is fake.
Offset Calls the Viral Image “Manufactured Drama”
A representative for the rapper told TMZ the alleged IG Story is “completely fabricated.” According to the spokesperson, Offset never wrote or posted the quote attributed to him, calling the entire situation a calculated attempt to stir conflict between the former couple.
The rep added that Offset has remained supportive of Cardi despite their separation and “genuinely wishes her nothing but the best,” hoping to put an end to the online chaos.
Cardi B Responds — And Raises Serious Concerns
Cardi B reacted quickly to the rumor, believing the post was real at the time. Her response reflected frustration and fear over ongoing harassment and the pressure of living under constant public scrutiny.
She wrote:
“Y’all be thinking it’s so funny and it’s not… It’s all fun and games until it’s too late.”
During a candid social media rant, Cardi spoke openly about the dangers women face when online narratives spiral out of control:
“Sometimes I sleep and I wonder, ‘This is not normal.’ You see crime documentaries… women getting killed every other day.”
Her comments highlighted how misinformation can escalate into hostility — especially toward women in the public eye.
A Complicated Dynamic
Cardi and Offset secretly married in 2017 and share three children. Their relationship unraveled in 2024 after Cardi filed for divorce. She later welcomed a child with NFL star Stefon Diggs, a birth that has been heavily scrutinized by fans tracking every update about her personal life.
This latest controversy exposes the fragile nature of co-parenting under the spotlight — where even fabricated posts can spark days of viral discourse.
Offset maintains he had nothing to do with the rumor. Cardi continues to express concern about the emotional toll misinformation can take. And fans remain locked in on every twist of their unfolding story.
