Cardi B explains why she had to leave Offset

Cardi B, who had an on-and-off relationship with Offset, emphasised that the relationship took its toll on her mentally after she was disappointed by the father of her children despite giving him several chances.

“I was literally losing my mind,” Cardi repeated. “And I gave it chances after chances after chances after chances after chances after chances.”

She made a jaw-dropping revelation that she could’ve ended up taking Offset’s life if they’d stayed together because it was getting overwhelming.

“I was going to end up going to jail, ‘cause I was going to end up killing them. Seriously, with my own bare hands. ‘Cause it was just getting so … it was just getting too much,” she said.

During the X Space, Cardi B revealed that she divorced Offset not only because of the infidelity, but also because of how he treated her. She accused the former Migos rapper of gaslighting, lying constantly, and messing with her head.
