It’s been a whirlwind year for New England Patriots receiver Stefon Diggs, one that will get even wilder after announcement from girlfriend and superstar rapper Cardi B.
The couple are expecting their first baby together, Cardi B announced in a Sept. 17 interview with Gayle King on “CBS Mornings.”
“Well, well, yes, I am, I’m having a baby with my boyfriend Stefon Diggs,” Cardi B told King in the interview. ” … I’m actually very, I’m excited. I’m happy. I’m in a good space. I feel very strong, I feel very powerful that I’m doing all this work. I’m doing all this work while creating a baby.”

She added: “Me and (Diggs) were very supportive of each other. We’re like in the same space in our careers — You know what it is? I feel like we’re really great and one of the best at what we do, and me and him think the same way: It’s like, yeah, we’re one of the greatest, but what’s next? What are we doing again? We have to do it again all the time. We’re never comfortable. We just want to keep doing it. That’s just how we both are.”
Diggs and Cardi both have children from previous relationships. Diggs has on child, a daughter, while Cardi has three kids from her previous relationship with ex-husband, rapper Offset.
Cardi B Inspired by Diggs’ Worth Ethic
It’s hard to say just how long Diggs and Cardi have been dating, but rumors of a potential relationship date all the way back to October of 2024. The two were spotted together in public on multiple occasions after that, including courtside at a New York Knicks playoff game, but they didn’t hard launch the relationship until June of this year.
Cardi revealed recently that she’s been inspired by Diggs’ work ethic, saying it’s eye-opening how much work goes into being a professional athlete. In fact, Diggs’ workload has probably been even higher since they started dating, as he spent a bulk of that time rehabbing a torn ACL that cost him a chunk of the 2024 season.
“Creatively, it’s a little different because we do different jobs, but personally, I’ll never complain about my job,” she told Billboard in a recent interview. “I will never complain about lack of sleep. I will never, never, never complain. I’m not going to lie to you. … One thing I’ve been learning is to be more organized, not complain, because he has two different things: He has to learn his (playbook), so not only do you have to study, you always have to get physical, and you have to be in bed at a certain time. (It’s like) you’re literally in the military.
“You like really work hard. It’s like, I work hard, but I can take a little break. I can lay back, you know what I’m saying? I don’t have to be running, running, running, but it’s very inspirational to see how hard somebody works. It’s like, wow, you should be proud of yourself.”
