Cardi B has recently shed light on the substantial financial responsibilities she shoulders for her three children—Kulture (6), Wave (3), and Blossom (8 months)—amid her ongoing divorce proceedings with Offset. In a candid discussion on X Spaces, Cardi B detailed the extensive monthly expenses involved in raising her children, while also addressing Offset’s recent request for spousal support and joint custody.
Cardi B disclosed that she spends a significant amount monthly to ensure her children’s well-being and lifestyle. These expenses include:
- Personal Driver: A dedicated driver for the children, costing $10,000 per month.
Private Education: Kulture’s school tuition amounts to $45,000 annually, while Wave’s education costs $35,000 per year. - Tutoring and Extracurricular Activities: Both Kulture and Wave receive tutoring four times a week at $250 per hour. Kulture also attends piano lessons three times a week, each session costing $300. Additionally, the children participate in activities like gymnastics and boxing.
- Childcare: Cardi B’s cousin babysits the children for $3,000 weekly. Blossom has a nanny who is paid $500 per day.
- Personal Chef: A chef is employed from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. to prepare meals for the family.
- Security: Due to past threats, Cardi B maintains a 24-hour security team to ensure her children’s safety.
Offset’s Alleged Lack of Financial Contribution
Cardi B claims that Offset has not contributed to these expenses over the past year. She stated, “A whole year straight, you have left me with the kids’ bills.” Despite the significant costs associated with their children’s upbringing, Cardi B alleges that Offset has been absent both financially and emotionally. She mentioned that Offset has seen their youngest child, Blossom, only a handful of times since her birth in September 2024.
Offset’s Request for Spousal Support
In a turn of events, Offset has filed for spousal support and joint custody of their children. This move has been met with criticism from Cardi B, who expressed her frustration over the situation. She emphasized that she has been solely responsible for their children’s expenses and questioned Offset’s motives behind seeking financial support.
Public Reaction and Ongoing Legal Proceedings
The public has been taken aback by the revelations, with many expressing surprise at the high costs associated with the children’s lifestyle. As the divorce proceedings continue, the financial and custodial arrangements between Cardi B and Offset remain a topic of significant interest and discussion.
