The "Bodak Yellow" singer recently took to her Instagram stories to talk about "outgrowing relationships" and being "tired of protecting people's feelings" to the detriment of her own well-being.

It is speculated that the post was directed at her rapper husband, with whom she shares two children, Kulture Kiari Cephus and Wave Set Cephus. Further fueling the rumors about their alleged marital troubles is the duo's act of "unfollowing" themselves on Instagram. This was said to have occurred sometime between Monday and Tuesday.

After news spread of the couple's drama, many fans took to social media to accuse the duo of chasing clout.

A third follower claimed that the duo was trying to take attention from Nicki Minaj's new project due to the music rivalry between Cardi B and Minaj. The fan said, "They do this just for attention; it's Nicki Minaj's week, so they can't let her get the attention."

Since tying the knot in 2017, Cardi B and Offset have run into issues in their marriage, culminating in a separation in December 2018 after it came to light that the "Clout" crooner cheated on the female rapper.

They later reunited in early 2019, and in 2020, Cardi B opened up about why she took the decision to forgive her husband's infidelity.

"When me and my husband got into our issues—you know, he cheated and everything—and I decided to stay with him and work together with him, a lot of people were so mad at me," the female rapper said in an interview with Vogue.

She added, "A lot of women felt disappointed in me. But it's real-life s--t. If you love somebody and you stop being with them, you're not really happy on the inside until you have the conversation."
