The ‘Bodak Yellow’ artist, after facing accusations of skin bleaching, opened up about her third pregnancy and how it is currently affecting her health.
Cardi, who already shares two children, Kulture, six, and Wave, two, with her estranged husband, Offset, recently filed for divorce for the second time. Interestingly, news of her divorce and her third pregnancy broke on the same day. Sharing photos of herself cradling her baby bump on Instagram, Cardi captioned the post, “With every ending comes a new beginning!”
Unfortunately, the rapper’s appearance in the photo led some X (formerly Twitter) users to speculate that she had done something to her skin.
Cardi quickly shut down the rumours, responding to one user: “Bleaching while pregnant 😒😒😒. Why must y’all be so dumb?”
The artist went on to further explain that her paler skin is a result of her pregnancy, stating: “Actually no! I’m pregnant, I’m slightly anaemic, this baby is sucking all the energy out of my body to the point where I’m pale, eyes sunken, veins green asf, can’t tan under the sun because I get hot super fast and dizzy… please stop thinking with your asshole.”-shole!”
