One source told Page Six that the fight started because someone pushed Cardi from behind while another said Cardi was the instigator. A photo showed that Cardi suffered a bump to her head and Page Six reported that her dress "was ripped totally down the back." A photo also showed Cardi leaving the party without a shoe.

Cardi later took to Instagram to talk about why she had a problem with Nicki. In her post, Cardi claimed that Nicki had made comments about her ability to take care of her daughter. (You can see the full post here but be warned that it contains expletives.)
