Cardi B isn’t on great terms with estranged husband Offset, but in her words: “It is what it is.”

In the second part of her interview with Gayle King on CBS Mornings posted Thursday (Sept. 18), the Bronx native was straightforward about where she stands with her ex, revealing that they don’t currently have a co-parenting relationship for their three kids as she thinks the Migos rapper is harboring animosity.

“I just wish he was a better person, but it is what it is,” Cardi told King. “Be a better person for your kids.”

The topic of Offset came up while the “WAP” artist was discussing how frustrating she finds it that some people continue to associate her with her former partner. As she pointed out, she’s moved on; Cardi has been in a relationship with Stefon Diggs since the spring, and she announced Wednesday that they’re expecting a baby together.

“I filed for divorce a year ago,” she told King of her estranged husband. “That should be very clear. I don’t deal with that, I don’t mess with that, I don’t have no contact with that.”

When pressed about whether ‘Set is in her life in a co-parenting capacity, Cardi said, “Not right now.”

“I think he has some type of hate in his heart right now,” she continued. “If we all move on, there shouldn’t be no animosity. Your life, my life, separate. We should be able to raise kids. We should be able to ask each other questions. We should be able to be like, ‘Hey, look what one of the kids just did,’ ‘Look at this,’ ‘Look at the report card.’ We should be able to celebrate, but it’s not about the kids. One thing I’m learning is it’s not about the kids.”

Cardi and Offset share three children: daughters Kulture and Blossom, as well as son Wave. They were married for about seven years before Cardi filed for divorce in July 2024. She’d previously filed in 2020, but the pair got back together weeks after the fact.

But despite what may be happening behind the scenes, Offset recently told TMZ that he plans on supporting Cardi’s new album, Am I the Drama?, when it arrives Friday (Sept. 19). “I just want all peace, man, for us to win, everybody gotta win,” he told a photographer for the outlet. “We got kids to take care of, we got to catch the dubs.”

Earlier this month, a jury found Cardi B not liable, after a security guard accused her of assault. The award-winning rapper’s testimony went viral. In a candid conversation, she told Gayle King about testifying: “I said what I said for real, like, just don’t lie.”
