Cardi B, the American rapper, and her husband, Offset, have sparked rumours of a potential rift in their relationship as they recently unfollowed each other on Instagram.

The speculation intensified following cryptic messages posted by Cardi B on her Instagram story, emphasizing the importance of self-focus and outgrowing relationships.

Cardi B wrote in one of her slides, "You know when you just outgrow relationships," followed by, "I’m tired of protecting people's feelings... I GOTTA PUT MYSELF FIRST."

Offset also contributed to the intrigue by sharing a clip from the movie Scarface on his Instagram story, featuring Al Pacino's character stating, “Hey, f**k you, man! Who put this thing together? Me! Who do I trust? Me!”

This development follows just two months after Offset surprised Cardi B with an extravagant flower arrangement for her birthday in October 2023. On that occasion, Cardi B expressed her appreciation on Instagram, expressing deep affection for her husband.

Despite a history of ups and downs in their six-year-long marriage, including a temporary divorce filing by Cardi B in 2020 due to alleged infidelity, the couple has managed to overcome previous challenges. However, rumours of trouble resurfaced in June 2023 when Offset publicly accused Cardi B of infidelity, an accusation she vehemently denied on Twitter.

The recent speculation gained momentum when Cardi B attended the Balenciaga Fall 2024 Show in Los Angeles, breaking the pattern of the couple attending events together.

With rumours circulating, fans are left in suspense, hoping that the speculations of a strained marriage are untrue.
