American rapper Offset has finally spoken out against widespread rumours claiming he rejected a massive $10 million divorce payout from his ex-wife Cardi B, dismissing the reports as completely false and part of a deliberate hate campaign.
Offset Sets the Record Straight
The Migos rapper took to his social media platforms to address the viral claims that had been circulating across various blogs and social media platforms. Offset strongly denied ever making such financial demands from his former partner, describing the narrative as "a lie designed to stir hate" among fans and the general public.
In his post, the artiste expressed frustration with media outlets that he accused of intentionally spreading negativity around his name since his divorce proceedings became public knowledge. He wrote, "False rumors. Stop letting blogs feed hate. Real life not internet," making it clear that the reports had no basis in reality.
Background of the Celebrity Split
The divorce drama between the two hip-hop stars began when Cardi B officially filed for divorce last year after seven years of marriage that produced three children together. Their relationship has always been under intense public scrutiny, marked by both highly publicized romantic gestures and numerous scandals that played out in the media.
Financial tensions between the former couple first surfaced publicly during a Cardi B livestream in late 2024, where the "Bodak Yellow" hitmaker made cryptic comments about money disputes. She revealed during the stream that "Somebody wants me to pay for their taxes," though she carefully avoided mentioning Offset by name. Many fans and media outlets immediately connected her statement to their ongoing divorce negotiations.
Social Media Reactions and Fan Theories
The rumour about Offset allegedly turning down the multimillion-dollar settlement had gained significant traction online, with some bloggers claiming the rapper insisted he "built Cardi's brand" and therefore deserved half of their combined assets. However, social media users have been divided in their responses to Offset's recent clarification.
One user, @SugarBabiesBigo, suggested the false narrative might have originated from Offset's "thirsty stepfather," whom they described as a clout chaser spreading rumours to blogs. Another user, @jasmine221125, expressed skepticism about Offset's motives, commenting that "he's telling on himself" with his mention of a hate campaign.
Meanwhile, other supporters came to Offset's defense, with @ITZMESHAY thanking him for addressing the false claims and noting that "It's a lot of kids involved on all sides!" User @DezOnly30 criticized the media obsession with the couple, stating that "The fake news is out of control. Cardi B is an obsession for social media."
What's Next for the Former Couple?
While Offset works to clear his name from what he considers false allegations, Cardi B appears to be focusing on her career and moving forward with her life. The Grammy-winning artist recently made headlines for setting a new Guinness World Record for the most drone deliveries in one hour, partnering with Walmart to deliver her highly anticipated second album, "Am I The Drama?" directly to fans' doorsteps.
As the legal negotiations for their divorce continue behind closed doors, both artists seem determined to maintain their individual careers and co-parent their three children amicably, despite the constant media attention and speculation surrounding their separation.
