Kody Cephus Parent's Relationship
Kody Cephus' parents Offset and Olier Jamie were in a relationship for two years, starting in 2013, before they welcomed their child, Kody Cephus. They haven't disclosed when they ended their relationship.
Allegedly, one of Offset’s close friends believed Oriel was the right match before Offset chose to be with Cardi B. Oriel has previously expressed concerns about Offset’s parenting.
Following news of Cardi B and Offset's engagement, Jamie took to Snapchat to express her disappointment that Offset hadn't introduced Cardi to their son, saying, "Congratulations to my son's father and his stepmother, whom he hasn't met yet. Hopefully, he'll at least get an invitation to the wedding." Despite the early problems, things seem better now between them.
Kody Cephus Half Siblings
Kody Cephus has three half-siblings through his father, Offset, and different relationships. His older half-brother is Jordan, and he has two younger half-sisters, Kalea Marie Cephus and Kulture Kiari Cephus.
Offset had his first child, Jordan, with a woman when he was 17. He mostly kept her life private but made headlines when she sued Offset in 2017 for child support.
She claimed he provided minimal financial assistance, rarely contributing to medical expenses, education, and other needs. Offset sought retroactive child support and $15,000 for attorney's fees.
Offset revealed that creating his album "The Father Of Four" was emotionally challenging, drawing inspiration from his struggles with fatherhood. The journey of becoming a father for the first time was difficult for the "Bad And Boujee" rapper. He admitted that during Jordan's birth, he was still trying to find himself and felt too young for such a responsibility.
Kody is Offset's second child, born to his ex-girlfriend, Oriel Jamie, in 2015. After their relationship ended, Offset briefly dated a rapper named Shya Lamour, with whom he had his third child, Kalea Marie Cephus. However, their relationship lasted only a few months.
Following this, Offset had a highly publicized relationship with Grammy-winning artist Cardi B. They welcomed their daughter, Kulture Kiari Cephus, making her Cardi B's first child and Offset's fourth. They also have a son named Wave Cephus.
