Rappers Cardi B. and Offset have decided to delay their fall wedding amid their booming careers.

Cardi B., or Belcalis Almanzar, is having the best year of her life. Just a year after she left reality series "Love & Hip Hop: New York," she rose to become one of the most prominent household names in 2017.

Last Sunday at the Grammys, she was nominated for two awards — Best Rap Song and Best Rap Performance — for her hit single "Bodak Yellow."

Even though she did not win, she is still arguably among the top female rappers right now and it looks like there is no stopping her from moving further up, even her wedding.

Talking to E! News at Clive Davis' Pre-Grammy Gala at Sheraton in Manhattan last Saturday, the 25-year-old rapper revealed that while she really wants to get married later this year, they might not be able to accommodate it in their schedules.

"I really want to get married around the fall time, I love the fall time," she told the media outlet. However, she is afraid the wedding might take more time than they could give.

"It's not only about the wedding date. It's not just one day, it's gotta be a whole almost two weeks type of thing," she added. "We want a honeymoon. Do we even have time for that?"

Cardi B. added that she keeps getting asked whether she wants to tour around fall. With her touring and putting out an album, and with Offset, who is part of the trio, Migos, doing the same thing, it's hard to find the time.

The Billboard chart topper added, "We're really into our careers in our lives... We are really workaholics. It's crazy."

Offset proposed to Cardi B. on stage at the Power 99's Powerhouse concert in Philadelphia in October 2017. He got down on one-knee offering a $550,000 eight-carat diamond ring. They have since received multiple offers to make their wedding a huge TV special, worth around a million dollars.

In the UK, gender equality conversations often focus on pay gaps or female representation in leadership, but in Nepal the struggle is far more basic. It is whether a girl can go to school, whether a woman can seek medical care without permission from her husband, and whether she can live in her own home without fear.
