She confirmed: “It was one morning in September we woke up and decided to get married. We found someone to marry us, and she did, just the two of us and my cousin.

Fans were confused as Cardi and Offset got engaged publicly last October – but she has now claimed that they were already married at the time.

Cardi explained: “I appreciate and love my husband so much for still wanting for me to have that special moment that every girl dreams of when he got down on his knee and put a ring on my finger and he did that for me!!”

Cardi – who is expected to give birth to the couple’s child very soon – concluded: “Well now since you lil’ nosey f***s know at least ya can stop saying I had a 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢 out of wedlock.”

Offset referred to Cardi as his “wife” while his group Migos accepted the gong for best group at the BET Awards.
