Offset has admitted to “stepping out” during his marriage to Cardi B.
In an interview for Baby, This is Keke Palmer podcast which aired on Tuesday, the rapper discussed the mistakes he made during the relationship.
As Offset confirmed he had been unfaithful to Cardi, the 33-year-old music star explained how difficult it was for his high-profile romance to end “on the front screen”.
“I was definitely not perfect in the situation,” Offset conceded. “I made a lot of mistakes. (There’s) a lot of things that I did wrong. She did things that was wrong.”
When host Palmer asked Offset if there was anything he would change about his behaviour during the relationship, he replied: “I should’ve respected her way more, you know what I mean? I made bad decisions as a man, like stepping out.”
Offset, born Kiari Cephus, also touched upon Cardi’s decision to file for divorce in July 2024.
The rapper admitted his infidelity had spurred the Bodak Yellow star into ending the seven-year marriage.
“That’s why when she left, I had to take that on the chin,” he explained. “I was being selfish, you know what I mean? And I can say that as a man. I’m a grown man.”
The former couple share three children, seven-year-old Kulture, four-year-old Wave and 13-month-old Blossom. During the interview, Offset vowed to remain on good terms with his ex because the stars have “kids to live for”.
In an interview released on Monday, Cardi – who is currently pregnant with her first baby with NFL star Stefon Diggs – admitted she knew her marriage to Offset was over long before she filed for divorce.
“I felt the love dying,” Cardi, 32, told Jay Shetty during an appearance on his On Purpose podcast. “From my end, from his end… I was very lonely because I chose to be lonely.”
