Los Angeles, CA – October 8, 2025 – Rapper Offset opened up about a persistent rumor involving an alleged affair with Saweetie during his marriage to Cardi B, firmly denying the claims in a new interview with Keke Palmer. The conversation, part of Palmer’s ongoing series, also delved into the reasons behind Offset’s split from Cardi B, marking one of his most candid discussions on the topic since their separation.
Denying the Saweetie Rumors
The speculation dates back to 2022, when Quavo and Takeoff’s track “Messy” included lyrics hinting at infidelity within their circle. Fans speculated it referenced Offset’s rumored involvement with Saweetie, Quavo’s then-girlfriend, sparking widespread online drama. Cardi B addressed the gossip in a 2023 interview, dismissing it while acknowledging broader relationship strains.
When Palmer confronted Offset about the “sleepover” narrative, he shifted uncomfortably and responded, “No man. It was a rumor man.” He described the headlines as “weird” and suggested there might be “something deeper” to the story’s persistence, though he offered no further details. Saweetie has never publicly commented on the allegations, and Quavo has denied the lyrics targeted anyone specific.
Opening Up on the Cardi B Split
Offset and Cardi B, who share three children, filed for divorce in July 2024—Cardi’s second attempt after a 2020 filing. Confirming the process is ongoing but not yet finalized, Offset admitted his infidelity played a key role in the marriage’s end. “I should’ve respected her more,” he said, reflecting on his “stepping out” during their nearly seven-year union.
He referred to Cardi affectionately as “bro” throughout the chat, emphasizing that the breakup was “for the best” despite the pain. Cardi has echoed this sentiment in recent appearances, telling Jay Shetty she feels “the strongest she’s ever been” post-split. The couple, who reconciled briefly after the 2020 filing, have maintained a focus on co-parenting amid the legal proceedings.
Public Reaction and Broader Context
The interview clip has quickly gone viral on social media, reigniting debates about celebrity relationships and rumor mills in hip-hop. Fans on X praised Offset’s vulnerability, with posts like “Finally some real talk from Set—growth is key,” while others revisited the Saweetie drama with memes and speculation. DJ Akademiks, known for stirring gossip, recently claimed the affair was “absolutely true” on a livestream, though Offset’s denial directly counters that narrative.
Offset, 33, a former Migos member, has been navigating personal and professional changes since Takeoff’s 2022 death, including a potential reunion with Quavo. As he promotes new music, this sit-down highlights his shift toward accountability in public forums.
