Cardi B on Sunday announced that she is pregnant with her second child during a live performance with Migos at the BET Awards in Los Angeles.
She and her husband, Offset, are already parents to their 2-year-old daughter Kulture.
The award-winning rapper came out on stage in an outfit that revealed her noticeable baby bump. She also posted an announcement on social media following the performance.

Cardi B and Offset secretly married in 2017, before splitting up in 2018 after she gave birth that same year. The two have had an on-and-off relationship ever since.
The news was unexpected, and the reactions immediate.
Still not over this moment @iamcardib @Migos!
