Pregnant Cardi B bares her baby bump in a sports bra after announcing her pregnancy and divorce from Offset

Pregnant Cardi B kept a brave face as she stepped out despite her split from Offset.

Just one day after ending her six-year marriage, the 31-year-old rapper, who is expecting her third child with her estranged husband, appeared in high spirits while shopping in New York’s Diamond District.

For her laid-back performance, the Grammy winner showed off her baby bump in a tiny blue Dior sports bra and ripped jeans.

She completed her effortlessly cool outfit with a patterned headscarf, bracelets and a red leather saddle bag, which she carried over her right shoulder.

Her glamorous makeup look consisted of a pair of bold false lashes, a nude lip gloss, a full-coverage foundation and bronzer for a sun-kissed glow.

The artist confirmed her pregnancy on Instagram on Thursday, hours after it was revealed she had filed for divorce amid rumors that Offset had cheated on her.

In her announcement, she showed off her baby bump in a plunging red dress as she posed on a balcony in the evening.

Cardi – who noticeably did not mention or tag her estranged husband Offset in the post – wrote in the caption, “With every ending comes a new beginning! I am so grateful I got to share this season with you all, you have renewed me with more love, more life, and most of all, my strength!”

‘Reminded me that I can have it all! You reminded me that I never have to choose between life, love and my passion! I love you so much and can’t wait for you to see what you’ve helped me achieve, what you’ve pushed me to do! It’s so much easier to take the turns in life, take the curves and leave the test, but you, your brother and your sister have shown me why it’s worth it to keep going!’

Cardi already has a daughter, Kulture, five, and a son, Wave, two, with Offset.

A source said Page Six The rumors of infidelity were not the reason for the divorce petition.

“They’ve grown apart. That’s what drove her to this decision more than anything else,” an insider told Page Six. “This is something she wants to do.”

The reports come just one day after Offset denied he had been unfaithful.

On Thursday, Offset denied cheating after the Instagram account Ig Model Tea Room posted a video of him sitting next to a woman named PrettyRedz at a casino, who they claimed was his ex-girlfriend.

“Shawty ain’t my shawty,” the 32-year-old Style Rare rapper, who has 37.5 million social media followers, responded via Instagram Live.

‘People really need to do their research… I’m gambling in a public place in a casino with a married, 8-month pregnant woman. [What the f***] I seem to be cheating outside in public [shaking my head!’ he said during an Instagram Live.

Offset’s (born Kiari Kendrell Cephus) vehement denial of the cheating rumors wound up confusing people into thinking he was referring to his wife as pregnant, which her rep quickly denied to TMZ on Wednesday.

PrettyRedz is actually seven months pregnant with the child of her late husband Kyng Rocky, who tragically passed away on June 18.

She too denied the cheating rumors, commenting on a post about the matter for The Neighborhood Talk: ‘SMH that man wasn’t with me i was already there wit my husband sister& brother and I’m 7 months pregnant… y’all really have to stop with this type of behavior.’

She also wrote on her Instagram Stories on Tuesday: ‘It’s completely crazy that I even have to do this! Please! If not for me, please respect my late husband! I am just beginning to grieve! Having a night out with my family is definitely not an opportunity for click bait!’

‘I am carrying the last gift my husband will give this Earth! All I want is peace! If [you’re] looking for a story, nothing to see here! Respect all the families involved. You guys are making things up without caring about the impact! Please stop it. I’m pregnant too! You guys are sick [as f***] here [shaking my head].

Cardi and Offset reportedly split again last November, but on July 9, they presented a strong united front with their children at Disneyland Paris.

While he was on the cover of June issue of Rolling Stoneshe talked about their relationship and what attracted her to him.

“When I met Offset, he was super rich and I had just made my first f***ing $200,000 in the bank,” she recalled. “He never made me feel small in front of him. He always told me, ‘You f***ing superstar, watch out.’

His support was a breath of fresh air compared to her previous partner, who she said made her feel too loud, broke and thin.

‘When I shut him down and didn’t care what he said anymore, [thought] about me, I started making videos on Instagram. That’s how I got famous,’ the WAP hitmaker recalled.

While discussing the challenges in her marriage, the artist admitted that they both had their own shortcomings.

“We have our own bad things,” she said. “We come from two different worlds. Sometimes I can’t… not that I can’t be a woman. It’s like my career takes over my life. You know what I mean? My career comes first, then my kids come second. And sometimes I don’t realize that there are so many things I value more than my relationship.”

Yet the artist says she doesn’t “want to grow up.”

“I remember last year when we were going through a rough time. And it was like, ‘Put your album out. You’re overworking yourself. When’s the last time we went on vacation?’ And it was like, ‘I don’t have time to go on vacation because this comes first.’ This comes first and then my kids come second. The little things that I have to take care of come second. Sometimes I feel like I put my relationship last,” Cardi said.

When asked if she had made a decision about her relationship, the Grammy winner explained that she and Offset are “best friends.”

“We think about it because we love each other. It’s not even about love. We’re best friends. And it’s like, ‘Okay. Well, there was a time when 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,'” she explained.

Offset and Cardi (born Belcalis Almánzar) were previously separated from December 5, 2018, to January 31, 2019, amid allegations of cheating.
