Cardi B has opened up about how she finds it difficult to disconnect from her career and has credited husband Offset for coming through with creative ways to help her relax and unwind.

The rapper gave an interview at her Fashion Nova x Cardi B launch party where she admitted that she finds it tough to let things go.

"It's really hard for me to disconnect, but you know, my husband he was just like, 'You know what? You need to go, you need a vacation'," she said.

Explaining that he once booked a mini-break purely to help her chill out, she told E!: "So he actually flew me out to the Dominican Republic and he took away my phone."

While there, Offset put some ground rules into place – namely that she was only allowed to look at her phone in order to post an image to Instagram. She joked that in response she tells him: “Sorry, dad,” before adding: “I swear to God he is like a dad."

This comes as Cardi got honest about her post-partum body: "My body actually shut down from all the work and I've been very overwhelmed cause I was trying to lose weight in the beginning and then now I'm trying to gain the weight," she explained.

"It's been so hard to gain the weight back because my appetite has been so down and it's just so much, but the work at least is getting done."

Where can we find a partner who books trips to the Dominican Republic on a whim?
