Talking to PEOPLE, the insider stated that filing for divorce again was tough for Cardi B. They stressed the fact that the Thru Your Phone artist has two kids with Offset and is also pregnant with a third one while being a working mom. Talking about her side, the source mentioned that the rapper would love to have a happy married life, adding that the time with Offset has simply become a distraction rather than a support, and hence it is wise to end it.

"It’s been a long time coming. It’s not just one issue. She’s matured a lot,” added the insider.
