For starters, that $50 million figure is based on an estimate that Cardi B’s brand could be worth more than $100 million over time and the assumption that New York’s Domestic Relations Law Section 236 B mandates that Offset would be entitled to half of that fortune. The truth is “Equitable Distribution means that the marital property will be divided between spouses in a way that is equitable, or fair,” entertainment lawyer Desiree Talley, Esq., explained to us via email. “In the event that Cardi B and Offset in fact divorce, she may not have to pay him half of her fortune. Assuming New York law applies, the court will follow the equitable distribution laws of the state. Equitable distribution does not necessarily mean half. It means fair.”
