Cardi B's Sister Hennessy Defends Her From Pregnancy Backlash: 'It Hurts'

Cardi B is pregnant and happy about it. However, she still gets backlash from people who disagree that she should welcome a baby into the world, so early in her career. But, Cardi's little sister, Hennessy Carolina, isn't having it.

In an interview with PEOPLE, Carolina defends her sister against these haters. “Why is anyone saying anything so mean to someone? A baby is a blessing,” she told the publication. “Why would you talk about it like it’s a bad thing? My sister is such a good person, I wouldn’t want nobody to talk bad about her. It really hurts. But I’m not gonna let them stress me out anymore. I’m tired of it!”

Cardi is reportedly giving birth to her first child in July with fiancé, Offset. The couple is extremely excited to welcome the new addition. So are the families of both artists. However, the "Money Bag" artist had to hide her baby bump for most of her pregnancy. It wasn't until she served as the musical guest on "Saturday Night Live" that she finally exposed it.

Carolina continues about Cardi's pregnancy: “I know she’s happy. No more people talking about her. I know she’s happy and she’s free. She can go out and eat food, not hide what she wants to wear.”

Many people believe that Cardi is having a girl because of a previous IG post from Carolina, which initially used the word "her" to describe the unborn child. But, "her" was later replaced with "the baby" when fans started questioning Carolina about the baby's gender.
