Cardi B said she was in complete disbelief. “I smacked him and I said, ‘Don’t say that. Like, don’t say that!’ And then he [was] just screaming and just throwing things, throwing up, running all over and I was so scared,” she said, adding, “I was just crying so much. It was terrible.” 

She further said that she felt “hopeless” trying to comfort her husband following the sudden death of his cousin. “We don’t want no sympathy. We ain’t no charity case, but no lie, I have been feeling so hopeless trying to make my husband happy, trying to make him crack a smile,” she explained.

The rapper further said, “Seeing him randomly cry, seeing him trying to distract his mind, completely f*****’ schedule been changing, trying to keep up with work after everything he’s been through these past couple of weeks."

Cardi B has been slammed by the internet for sharing such intimate details about the reactions of his husband after Takeoff's death.
