Cardi B is expecting another addition to the family! Not long after it was confirmed that she had filed for divorce from rapper Offset after nearly seven years of marriage, she has announced she is expecting her third child.

The Grammy-winning musician took to social media with a pair of photographs of herself cradling her baby bump in a red gown and a fur coat.

She shared: "With every ending comes a new beginning! I am so grateful to have shared this season with you, you have brought me more love, more life and most of all renewed my power! Reminded me that I can have it all!" 

"You've reminded me that I never have to choose between life, love, and my passion! I love you so much and can not wait for you to witness what you helped me accomplish, what you pushed me to do!" 

She concluded: "It's so much easier taking life's twists, turns and test laying down, but you, your brother and your sister have shown me why it's worth it to push through!"

Despite their estrangement, the on-and-off couple are now preparing to become parents for a third time. They share children Kulture, five, and Wave, two.

In an interview with Rolling Stone earlier this year, the "Bodak Yellow" rapper spoke about her complicated marriage, saying that while the pair were often on-and-off, and were still legally married at the time, they had stuff to work on.

"We have our own bad stuff," she mentioned. "We're from two different worlds. Sometimes I cannot be… not that I cannot be a wife. It's just like, my career takes my life. You know what I’m saying?"

"My career comes first, then my kids come second. And then sometimes I don't realize that I'm putting so many things before my relationship," although added soon after: "My kids come before anything."

She continued, while acknowledging that her rapper husband was a big part of her life and a major support: "I sometimes feel like I do probably put my relationship last," and when asked what she thought of the state of their marriage, Cardi said: "I think it through. We think it through, because we do love each other."

"It's not even about love. We're best friends. And it's like, 'OK. Well, there was a time that I didn't have a best friend, or I didn't have a support system.' It's not even about, 'How do you leave a partner?' How do you stop talking to your best friend?"
