Cardi followed up by sharing another photo which featured her first-born, daughter Kulture. In the photo, Cardi is dressed in a Grecian-inspired gown, a massive headwrap, and stacked gold jewelry. 

Kulture is seen sporting a similar ensemble to Cardi’s, while holding her hand lovingly on her mother’s belly. 

Cardi accompanied the photos with a caption that read: “I just know these two will love each other soo much and argue soo much since they’re 3 years apart… just like me and Henny,” referencing her sister, Hennessy Carolina.
