Cardi B says an ex threatened to kill himself after she left him and that he also made threats against her life, speaking during a fan chat on X Spaces. She also revisited how people react to her relationships and criticized those who “crash out” online.
The timing is what sticks with people: Cardi B didn’t leave quietly, she says. She says an ex-partner’s response to her breakup turned dangerous.
During a recent fan chat on X Spaces. Cardi B told listeners. “You see what happens when a b**chs really leaves.” She said she “didn’t even wanna bring that situation up. ” but described what she claims happened after she ended the relationship. telling fans. “We all saw how he almost wanted to kill himself when I left.”.
Cardi B also said the situation wasn’t just emotional—it included threats about her life. She told her audience that he made threats, and said she wasn’t trying to “fake act,” adding that she was trying “to come at a n***a or something.”
She returned to that theme as the conversation shifted toward the way strangers comment on her relationships. Cardi said she notices that when breakups happen, the people involved don’t end up with the person they cheated with.
“Why they not with them? Why they don’t be with them when I leave?” she asked. She then questioned why others appear to fall into extreme behavior around her name, saying: “They getting brand new bitches. Why did they be crashing out over me?”
In her telling, the pattern is tied to her celebrity. “Since it’s only because of my name… since it’s only because of my name. since it’s only because I’m Cardi B. ” she said. Then came the blunt claim she described as playing out publicly: “why y’all damn near want to f**kingkill yourself. and y’all seeing it in real time. everybody seeing it in real time.”.
Cardi B never named the ex-partner in her X Spaces remarks, but earlier in 2025 she took to the platform alleging Offset was harassing her after she reached out to his new girlfriend with screenshots of messages he sent her. She also alleged that he was suicidal.
The legal thread around their split has been ongoing. Earlier this year. a judge reportedly denied a request from Offset demanding a paternity test for Cardi and Diggs’ child as part of their divorce proceedings. Cardi B filed for divorce from the rapper in 2024 and requested primary custody of their children.

During Cardi’s marriage to Offset, Powell claimed she was pregnant with his child. In January. Powell shared a video that appears to show her and Offset in bed. and she later claimed he was threatening her daily and owes her thousands.
The story, as Cardi framed it, is about what happens after a breakup becomes final: she says threats—against herself and even self-harm—can spill into public view, and she points to how online reactions escalate as quickly as headlines.
