Since the lyrics say:
	Now, as I'm coming for you,		*present tense
	All I see is Rudi.
	I die with him, again and again.	*past tense
	And I'll feel good in my revenge.
	I'm gonna fill your head with lead	*future tense
	And I'm coming for you!			*present tense
so Rudi here would be her killed husband.

Then:
	One in your belly, and one for Rudi.
so the attacker is not Rudi, and since "they say":
	It must have been Rudi's child
I would assume it was, of course doesn't have to be, if it was then
it would have to have mean a "shotgun wedding", maybe someone had
a problem with that (eg brother/father/previous boyfriend)?

Notice the video has Paddy as the husband killer.

I ask though "Bang-bang--Out! like an old cherootie,"
what relevance is a "cigar with both ends cut square" to the song?
Well, that's what my dictionary has!
