Cardi B made her first public appearance since the social media unfollowing incident with her husband, Offset, indicating potential relationship troubles. The 31-year-old singer was spotted looking stunning and relaxed as she went shopping on Los Angeles’ Melrose Avenue last Friday.

This outing marked Cardi B’s first public appearance since the online speculation about a split with her husband, Offset. The couple had recently unfollowed each other on social media, fueling rumors about the state of their relationship. Cardi B added to the speculation with a cryptic comment during an Instagram Live session on Tuesday. She mentioned her plans for the coming year, emphasizing the need to eliminate “deаd weight” in her career, finances, and personal life. Without directly addressing her relationship, she hinted at a focus on self-improvement.

The Grammy winner showcased a fashion-forward look during her shopping excursion, wearing an oversized top featuring two distinct plaid patterns in brown and blue/red. She paired this with extremely short denim shorts and over-the-knee, acid-washed denim boots, creating a bold and stylish ensemble. Completing her look, Cardi sported a sleek bob and carried a caramel-colored Hermes handbag.

Cardi B, born Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar, and Offset, born Kiari Kendrell Cephus, have been married since 2017. Recent social media activities, including their decision to unfollow each other, have sparked speculation about the status of their relationship. Cardi B shared sentiments about outgrowing relationships on her Instagram Stories earlier this week, expressing a need to prioritize herself.

Offset, on the other hand, shared a video clip on Instagram featuring Al Pacino’s Scarface character expressing self-reliance. The couple’s history includes previous instances of separation and reconciliation. In December 2018, Cardi B announced their separation on Instagram, but they later reconciled. Similarly, in September 2020, Cardi filed for divorce, only to reconcile with Offset a month later.

Despite the ups and downs, the couple shares two children, daughter Kulture Kiari Cephus, five, and son Wave Set Cephus, two. This recent public appearance by Cardi B raises questions about the future of their relationship, keeping fans and followers eagerly awaiting further developments.
