Cardi B has expressed strong outrage following a disturbing incident where an anonymous prank caller falsely reported her children to Child Protective Services (CPS). The Grammy-winning rapper shared the ordeal during an Instagram Live session from a hospital bed, where she has been recovering from an illness.

The false report led to CPS and police officers arriving at Cardi’s gated mansion at 11 p.m., where her children were asleep. The caller falsely claimed that her children were being abused, prompting an urgent investigation by the authorities.

Visibly angered by the situation, Cardi B made it clear that she would not let the incident go unpunished. “You motherf–kers have taken s–t too far when you mess with my f–king kids,” she said during the live stream, adding that the prank had left her feeling "f–ked up." Cardi emphasized that the prank was not only an invasion of her privacy but also an attack on her family, stressing that false claims about child abuse are no laughing matter.

Cardi, who shares three children with her ex-husband, rapper Offset, has vowed to take legal action against both CPS for the distress caused and the individual behind the anonymous call. She explained that her family, including her six-year-old daughter Kulture and three-year-old son Wave, are well cared for and that she spares no expense when it comes to their upbringing. She revealed that she spends $45,000 a year on Kulture's private school tuition and $700 a day on a nanny for her children, underscoring the lengths she goes to ensure their well-being.

In her Instagram Live session, Cardi also made it clear that her family is off-limits, saying that she and her ex-husband Offset, with whom she co-parents their children, will defend their kids against anyone who dares to cross the line. She reiterated that her children have never been abused and that she and Offset take pride in giving their kids the best care possible.
