She told fans last year she wanted a breast "renovation" once she had given birth.

Well, she's got them new boobs now and isn't scared to flaunt it.

Known for being honest with her followers, Cardi captioned the pic, "I can't swim so I bought these t**tties so I can float."

The snap has since caused a stir, boasting more than three million likes on Instagram.

Sharing her body changes after giving birth, Cardi wrote on Instagram that her daughter  Kulture "did me bad" and in May had her breasts "redone".

The star previously clapped back at critics who shamed her for getting liposuction and a breast augmentation after she cancelled several shows to take time to heal.
