Offset’s Shocking DNA Test Demand Ignites Firestorm in Cardi B Divorce Saga

Cardi B demands Offset sign divorce papers after explosive online feud -  The Statesman

In a bombshell revelation that’s sent shockwaves through the hip-hop world, Offset, the Migos rapper and estranged husband of Cardi B, has reportedly demanded a DNA test for their newborn daughter, Blossom, amid their increasingly acrimonious divorce proceedings. The explosive claim, first surfacing in a tense mediation session two weeks ago, has reignited the couple’s year-long battle over custody, infidelity allegations, and paternity doubts. Fans, who have long been divided on the on-again, off-again duo’s turbulent romance, are now dissecting every pixel of the family’s public persona, with social media erupting in memes, defenses, and outright vitriol.

The drama unfolded quietly at first, buried in the legal trenches of their high-stakes separation. According to sources close to the mediation – as detailed by gossip outlet Your Problematic Favs – Offset, 33, pushed for genetic confirmation of his fatherhood to Blossom Belle Cephus, born on September 7, 2024. The request wasn’t a casual aside; it came amid heated discussions over child support, visitation rights, and asset division. Cardi B, 33, whose real name is Belcalis Almanzar, has vehemently denied the need for such a test, firing back in a raw, unfiltered Instagram Live session that quickly amassed millions of views. “I will never do a DNA test because all my kids look like their father,” she declared, her Bronx accent laced with defiance. “The proof and the receipt is in my kids’ faces. All my kids look like their daddy – especially my newborn.”

Cardi’s response, delivered with her signature blend of vulnerability and ferocity, painted a vivid picture of family resemblance as irrefutable evidence. She teased future proof, vowing to share photos of six-month-old Blossom once the infant hits that milestone. “When my daughter is six months, I’ll post the picture and y’all will see she looks just like her baby daddy,” Cardi continued, shutting down speculation before it could fester. “My baby daddy has never asked me for any DNA tests because he knows when he’s hitting. Y’all are not gonna bait me into taking no DNA test or posting my daughter’s pictures just to prove a point. I know when I get pregnant; we know when it happened.”

This isn’t the first time paternity has reared its ugly head in the Cephus household. Offset and Cardi share two older children: daughter Kulture Kiari, 7, and son Wave Set, 3. Earlier this year, Offset publicly floated doubts about all three kids in a since-deleted social media rant, prompting Cardi to clap back with photos emphasizing their striking similarities – Kulture’s dimpled smile mirroring Offset’s, Wave’s intense gaze echoing his father’s. But Blossom’s arrival, announced dramatically on Instagram with a nude maternity shot, has amplified the scrutiny. Conceived amid whispers of Cardi’s alleged fling with NFL star Stefon Diggs – rumors she neither confirmed nor denied – the baby’s paternity has become tabloid fodder. Online sleuths point to side-by-side comparisons: Blossom’s caramel complexion and wide eyes allegedly favoring Diggs more than Offset’s sharper features. One viral X (formerly Twitter) post quipped, “I swear Offset better do a DNA test. Blossom looks just like Stefon Diggs. Do y’all really think she’ll let another [expletive] her if she’s already pregnant?”

The couple’s history is a rollercoaster of passion and pain, making this latest twist all the more poignant. They met in 2016, tying the knot impulsively in a private courtroom ceremony after just a week of dating. Kulture arrived in 2018, followed by Wave in 2021. But fidelity has been their Achilles’ heel. Offset’s 2017 cheating scandal – exposed by a leaked video – nearly derailed their union before it began. Cardi filed for divorce in September 2020, only to reconcile months later in a lavish bid for redemption. The cycle repeated in 2023 when Cardi accused Offset of infidelity yet again, leading to her current filing for divorce in August 2024, just hours before Blossom’s birth announcement.

How Cardi B and Offset's Romance Unfolded

Legal experts say Offset’s DNA demand could complicate proceedings. “In family court, paternity tests are routine when doubts are raised, especially in high-asset divorces like this,” notes divorce attorney Maria Lopez. “But Cardi’s refusal adds emotional leverage – she’s framing it as an attack on her character and their family unit.” The mediation, held under strict confidentiality, reportedly stalled over this very issue. Offset’s camp remains tight-lipped, but insiders whisper his request stems from “lingering trust issues” exacerbated by Cardi’s pregnancy-era partying and Diggs rumors. Cardi, for her part, has praised Offset’s fatherhood in the same breath as her rebukes. “My baby daddy was just yesterday at my mama’s house with all three of my kids,” she shared during the Live. “Cause I’mma give him that – he’s a good daddy. I’m going to give him just that.”

Public reaction has been a powder keg. On X, #OffsetDNATest trended globally, with fans split between Team Cardi – who see the demand as patriarchal overreach – and Offset loyalists decrying Cardi’s alleged “baiting” tactics. One post read: “Not the last baby that looks exactly like him and got his colour 😂😂 He is going out so sad!” Another, more sympathetic: “Honestly, with a father like him, I’d just be like ‘Yup, she’s not yours’ and save Blossom the trouble.” Celebrities have weighed in too; Nicki Minaj, Cardi’s longtime rival, subtly shaded the situation with a cryptic tweet about “fake receipts,” while Migos’ Quavo posted a supportive emoji under Offset’s latest track.
