Yesterday, during Cardi’s Rolling Loud Festival performance, Offset interrupted her set with a surprise gesture. He Had a flower set rolled out on stage that read “Take Me Back Cardi,” just days after making a public plea for Cardi to forgive him on his birthday.

Cardi issued a statement shortly after the event about Offset. She said while she appreciates the love from her fans and people alike, she doesn’t’t want people trashing Offset. Saying he has helped her many many were taking advantage of her, as well as stating he is a great father and Kulture loves her.

Now, Cardi has again issued statements about the incident, but this time, in defense of her publicist and friend Patience Foster. From different views of the incident, Foster can be seen leading Offset on stage, prompting many to believe that Cardi should fire her entire team (as the couple shares management). 

The public felt a way about Cardi’s friend/publicist helping Offset, distracting from Cardi’s money and business, so Cardi stepped in to defend her friend. Cardi replied to a person on Instagram, stating regardless of what happened, she won’t part ways with Foster. Stating that Foster “is my publicist and become my friend…She was there when I gave birth to my daughter and the only person I have kept with me since the beginning of my career.”

Foster also posted a message on her Instastory. “The good we try to do and the efforts we make to right our wrongs is only intended for the people we wish to be on the receiving end. Not for the recognition or affirmation of a delusion third party.”

Cardi also went on IG Live to speak on Foster again.
