The magazine revealed it was the “Bodak Yellow” rapper’s idea to include all the children so no one felt left out.

“After we got married, that’s when I first met his kids,” Cardi explained to the outlet. “I always wanted them to love me, and they really do. They tell me that. I feel it, and I hope that we always have a great relationship.”

Offset also shared his perspective on their blended family dynamic.

“It’s a blessing to be able to have them all together, and to have a wife who’s open and treats them as if they’re her kids,” he expressed. “It could be an issue, but I don’t have to go through that, and that’s beautiful.”

Additionally, Cardi B shared her hesitance to date a rapper during the early stages of their relationship, revealed that their first date was at Super Bowl LI back in 2017, how they were married in the bedroom of his Atlanta home, and more. Offset shared details about being nervous to impress the Bronx rapper.

“I was thinking, Let me go big, man,” he explained “It was a vibe.”
