NFL Shockwave: Stefon Diggs Faces Paternity Drama Amid Cardi B Pregnancy Bombshell
In a whirlwind of celebrity headlines that’s blurring the lines between Hollywood glamour and gridiron grit, NFL star Stefon Diggs finds himself at the epicenter of a paternity scandal just as his girlfriend, rapper Cardi B, joyfully announced her pregnancy with their first child together. The timing couldn’t be more dramatic: Cardi’s confirmation on September 17, 2025, during a CBS Mornings interview with Gayle King, came mere days before court documents resurfaced detailing Diggs’ separate paternity suit, igniting speculation and fan frenzy across social media and sports outlets. What Diggs “admitted behind closed doors”—his uncertainty about fathering another woman’s child and request for genetic testing—has sent shockwaves through both worlds, raising questions about trust, accountability, and the high-stakes personal lives of athletes and entertainers.
Cardi B, born Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar, dropped the pregnancy news with her signature unfiltered charisma, revealing she’s expecting baby No. 4—her first with Diggs, the New England Patriots wide receiver. “I’m having a baby with my boyfriend, Stefon Diggs,” she told King, emphasizing her excitement and sense of empowerment despite the demands of her career. The 32-year-old Grammy winner, already mom to Kulture, Wave, and Blossom from her previous marriage to Offset, described Diggs as a stabilizing force: “He makes me feel very confident… And it makes you feel like you could take over the world.” Their romance, which sparked rumors in October 2024 and went public in May 2025 at an NBA playoff game, seemed like a fresh start post-divorce. Cardi even joked about the timing, urging fans to buy her new album Am I the Drama? to help stock up on diapers.
But the celebration was short-lived. Just a day after Cardi’s announcement, details emerged of a paternity lawsuit filed against Diggs by model Aileen Lopera, known online as Lord Gisselle or GiGi. Lopera, who claims an “intimate relationship” with Diggs, filed in December 2024 while pregnant, seeking to establish him as the father of her daughter, Charliee Harper Diggs-Lopera, born April 2, 2025. She named the child with Diggs’ surname and requested sole custody, visitation rights for him, and coverage of pregnancy, birth, and legal expenses. Diggs responded in July 2025, admitting to a one-night stand but contesting paternity: “The respondent contests that parentage is as alleged.” He requested DNA testing and, if confirmed, joint custody and shared costs. A judge ordered testing in mid-July, but results remain pending, leaving the “confession” of doubt as the bombshell fueling the narrative.
This isn’t Diggs’ first brush with fatherhood scrutiny; he already co-parents an 8-year-old daughter, Nova, from a prior relationship. The overlap—potentially welcoming two infants from different partners—has amplified the drama, especially with Cardi’s high-profile reveal. Fans and media speculate on timelines: Diggs and Lopera’s alleged encounter predates his public romance with Cardi, but the suit’s publicity timing has sparked cheating rumors and accusations of Diggs’ “wild reputation.” Social media erupted, with X posts questioning Cardi’s choice and resurfacing old claims, including infidelity allegations from influencers like Brittney Jones and Skymarlenee, who shared purported texts and DMs. Even Offset weighed in indirectly, allegedly calling Diggs a “f*cking bum” in a recording.
Cardi, ever the unbothered icon, addressed the chaos with her trademark nonchalance. In an Instagram Live shortly after the suit details broke, she shrugged off questions about Diggs’ potential other child, saying, “What now? I don’t fking know. We’ll figure it out, bch.” When a reporter grilled her outside a courthouse about the paternity drama, she fired back, defending women’s privacy and slamming the intrusion: “Do you see women asking those types of questions to me? Why do you feel as a man you get to ask me those types of questions? Act like you have some manners.” Her response highlights a recurring theme in her life: navigating public scrutiny while prioritizing her family and career. Despite the “evil energy” she sensed post-announcement, Cardi powered through, performing at the Global Citizen Festival and promoting her album.
Diggs, meanwhile, has stayed mum on the suit, focusing on his $69 million Patriots contract and on-field performance. When asked about the pregnancy, he deflected: “Oh, my personal life? I told you about that. We don’t talk too much about my personal life.” His attorney’s no-comment stance leaves the “behind closed doors” admission—his court-filed doubt and test request—as the core revelation. Critics point to Diggs’ history of off-field controversies, from yacht party videos to past lawsuits, painting him as a playboy whose lifestyle clashes with impending fatherhood.
The intersection of sports and entertainment has long been fertile ground for such scandals, but this one feels particularly raw. Cardi’s resilience—balancing pregnancy, a new album topping charts, and legal wins like her recent assault case dismissal—contrasts Diggs’ evasion. Fans are divided: some defend the couple’s privacy, others demand transparency, with X threads buzzing about “paternity plot twists” and Cardi’s unbothered vibe. As testing looms, the truth could redefine their legacies. For now, it’s a reminder that fame amplifies personal storms, leaving the public dying for answers while the stars navigate the fallout.
