Cardi B has addressed speculations about her skin tone while pregnant with her third child, calling the rumours “dumb”.
A user on X (formerly Twitter) suggested she was bleaching her skin, prompting Cardi to respond, “Bleaching while pregnant? Why must y’all be so dumb?”
The rapper revealed that her skin tone appears different due to anaemia, an iron deficiency that causes a low red blood cell count, which is common during pregnancy, according to the Mayo Clinic.
“I’m pregnant I’m slightly anemic, this baby suckin all the energy off my body to the point I’m pale, eyes sunken, veins green ASF, can’t tan under the sun cause I get hot super fast and dizzy,” Cardi explained.
“PLEASE STOP THINKING WITH YOUR A—HOLE!” she concluded.
Cardi B has opened up about her pregnancy complications, revealing a recent “freak accident” that required hospitalization and could have led to a miscarriage.
Although she didn’t disclose details, she shared that the incident left her “paralyzed” and was a close call for her unborn child.
During her hospital stay, Cardi was given morphine, but once home, the numbing effects wore off, leaving her in discomfort.
This isn’t the first time Cardi has spoken about her pregnancy challenges. She announced her third pregnancy on August 1, just a day after filing for divorce from Offset, with whom she shares two children, Kulture and Wave.
Insiders claim the couple’s split was due to growing apart, not solely because of infidelity rumours.
Cardi’s priority is reportedly obtaining primary custody of their children, but she won’t seek child support from Offset. The pair, who married in 2017, are set to become co-parents.
