Weeks before the baby’s arrival, Cardi B confirmed that the couple had secretly wed in Atlanta in September 2017. Despite their under-the-radar nuptials, Offset publicly proposed to Cardi during Power 99’s Powerhouse concert in Philadelphia one month after the ceremony.

“There are so many moments that I share with the world and then there are moments that I want to keep for myself! Getting married was one of those moments,” she tweeted on June 25. “Our relationship was so new breaking up and making up and we had a lot of growing up to do but we was so in love we didn’t want to lose each other.”

She added: “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. I said I do, with no dress, no makeup and no ring!”
