The Bronx native has faced several health challenges recently, notably while pregnant with her third child. In August, she shared with fans via X Spaces that she had suffered a “freak accident” while descending stairs, leading to a serious injury. Cardi explained that she slipped and felt a painful pop in her body, making it difficult for her to move.

She detailed the frightening incident, saying, “I couldn’t get up really, and I noticed that I couldn’t walk. I was feeling pain in the lower part of my stomach.” After seeking medical help, Cardi was diagnosed with a torn ligament in her pelvis, which was dangerously close to her baby’s head. The situation became more intense as she began having contractions every two minutes and was monitored for 24 hours.

Despite the severity of the injury and the excruciating pain that required morphine for relief, Cardi’s baby was born healthy the following month, bringing relief after the terrifying ordeal.

Fans of the “Bodak Yellow” rapper are hopeful for her full recovery and look forward to seeing her return to the stage soon.
