Cardi B has expressed her outrage after an anonymous prank call led Child Protective Services to visit her home, falsely accusing her of child abuse. She took to Instagram Live on October 21, from a hospital bed, where she revealed that CPS arrived at her gated mansion at 11 p.m. while her children were asleep. "Motherf***ers have taken s*** too f***ing far when you mess with my f***ing kids," Cardi said. The authorities were responding to claims that her children were in danger.
Cardi has been in the hospital since October 19, dealing with an illness, and the prank added to her frustration. She emphasized that the situation was not a joke and announced her intention to take legal action. "I'm gonna hire the best private investigator... because y'all take joking too far," she said. She also defended her parenting, stating that her children live well, with her daughter's tuition costing $45,000 and her son's nanny at $700 per day.
The rapper also highlighted that she and her family are the only people of color in their neighborhood, adding that the incident felt racially motivated. "We're the only colored people in my neighborhood and for motherf***ers to pop up in my house with cops and CPS because motherf***ers wanna do an anonymous call involving my children... I promise you this, I'm gonna sue CPS," she stated.
Cardi did not stop at legal threats. She warned the prankster that they would face physical consequences if discovered. "If you're a boy, my baby father is gonna beat you the f*** up. If you're a woman, me and Hennessy are gonna beat you the f*** up," she said.
"My kids live great... we take very great care of our kids. Don't you ever in your f***ing life play with my motherhood or my ex-husband's fatherhood," she concluded.
