Stefon Diggs Prepares for Fatherhood as Cardi B’s Due Date Approaches — Inside Their Relationship, Drama, and Growing Family

Stefon Diggs is stepping into a brand-new chapter of his life as he prepares to welcome his first child with his pregnant girlfriend, Cardi B. With the baby’s arrival drawing closer, excitement and curiosity surrounding the couple have reached an all-time high. Fans, reporters, and even fellow athletes have been closely watching the pair as they navigate romance, media attention, and personal challenges — all while preparing for a newborn who’s already generating headlines.

During the 2025 CFDA Fashion Awards on November 3, Diggs gave the public one of the most open and genuine glimpses into his private life. “It’s supposed to happen real soon,” the 31-year-old NFL star told Extra, revealing how close Cardi is to giving birth. His tone carried a mix of nerves and anticipation — emotions many first-time fathers share.
The New England Patriots receiver then laughed lightly and said, “Wish us both luck,” making it clear that this experience is as thrilling as it is overwhelming.

At the same fashion event in New York City, Diggs confirmed the gender of their baby, proudly telling People: “It’s a boy.”
According to witnesses, Diggs looked emotional — even relieved — to finally share the news publicly, especially after months of speculation on social media.

A Baby Boy Long Before the Confirmation

Fans of Cardi B noticed long ago that she had hinted at wanting a baby boy with Diggs. In her song “On My Back” on the album Am I the Drama?, she playfully raps about hoping their children will inherit Diggs’ facial features. One lyric even teased, “I told my girl I’m ’bout to give this man a boy.”
With the gender now confirmed, fans have rushed back to decode the lyrics, realizing Cardi may have been dropping clues for months.

Addressing the Pregnancy Rumors

Back on September 17, Diggs subtly addressed pregnancy questions during an NFL press conference. When a reporter asked about “the baby rumors,” Diggs smiled and responded: “Oh, my personal life? We won’t talk too much about that.”
His coy reaction only intensified public curiosity at the time.

When asked what he looks forward to most as a new father, Diggs answered instantly. Having a son, he said, is “enough” for him.
“I can’t wait to make him do push-ups and sit-ups and run around,” he added, joking about how he plans to bring a bit of NFL discipline into parenthood.

Cardi B’s Pregnancy Glow and New Beginning

Cardi B, now 33, celebrated her birthday in breathtaking fashion. The rapper took to Instagram on October 12 to share photos of herself in a crimson, floor-length sheer gown that highlighted her growing baby bump. Cardi looked radiant and confident, showing the world that pregnancy has only amplified her star power.

Cardi is already a mother to three children — Kulture, Wave, and baby Blossom — whom she shares with ex-husband Offset. The former couple ended their six-year marriage in July 2024, and shortly after the split, rumors began swirling about Cardi’s connection with Diggs.

A Romance That Took the Internet by Storm

Cardi and Diggs were first linked in October 2024 after her divorce filing. At first, Cardi denied the rumors. But the chemistry was obvious — fans spotted them together at events, liked posts, and exchanged subtle social media interactions that kept the internet guessing.

Then came June.
Cardi posted a cozy photo with Diggs on a yacht, officially confirming what fans had already suspected. Romance speculation instantly turned into trending headlines.

Three months later, she confirmed her fourth pregnancy — her first with Diggs — during her appearance on CBS Mornings with Gayle King. “I am having a baby with my boyfriend,” Cardi said proudly. “I’m excited.”
It was one of her most genuine and heartfelt public statements in years.

Football, Fame, and Personal Turmoil

Even while preparing for fatherhood, Diggs found himself in the middle of a legal situation. Weeks before Cardi announced her pregnancy, a woman named Aileen Lopera filed a lawsuit in December 2024 claiming Diggs was the father of her 7-month-old daughter.

In a July 17 court filing, Diggs strongly denied the claim, requesting genetic testing and stating he was certain he was not the baby’s father. He added that if testing somehow proved otherwise, he would seek joint legal and physical custody.
The situation briefly captured media attention, but it did not derail Diggs’ focus. Nor did it shake Cardi’s support.

Cardi B Becomes His No. 1 Fan

Cardi has shown unwavering dedication to Diggs and his football career.
During an episode of the “Call Her Daddy” podcast, she wore his Patriots jersey and opened up about the beginning of their relationship. “It wasn’t a DM thing,” she said. “But I could feel the vibe that he liked me.”
Fans loved the honesty — and admired how natural their connection sounded.

On November 2, Cardi was spotted at the Patriots’ home game against the Atlanta Falcons. Wearing a deep burgundy coat barely hiding her bump, Cardi sat next to Patriots owner Robert Kraft at Gillette Stadium.
The game ended in a dramatic 24–23 victory, and Cardi celebrated on social media with photos — including a touching moment of Diggs bending down to caress her belly.

She captioned the post:
“PAT NATION ❤️🤍💙”

Diggs jumped into the comments, writing:
“Goodluck charmmm huh? 🙂‍↕️😏💞”
Fans took it as a sign that Cardi might just be his ultimate good-luck charm.

A Growing Family and a New Chapter

As Cardi’s due date approaches, the couple appears more united than ever. Diggs is preparing for fatherhood with enthusiasm, humor, and a bit of nervous energy. Cardi, meanwhile, is embracing motherhood again while balancing her music career and maintaining a powerful presence in the public eye.

Their journey — filled with love, challenges, public scrutiny, and tender moments — reflects a modern celebrity romance unfolding in real time. With a baby boy on the way, fans can’t wait to see the next chapter of Cardi B and Stefon Diggs’ fast-growing love story.
