Cardi B confirms pregnancy with Stefon Diggs’ baby 19 days after lashing out at reporter over rumors outside LA courtroom

Cardi B is having her fourth baby, and it’s her first with NFL player Stefon Diggs. She shared the news in an interview on "CBS Mornings" on Wednesday:

“I feel very strong. I feel very powerful that I’m doing all this work… while I’m creating a baby. Me and my man, we’re very supportive of each other.”

She added:

"Stefon Diggs just makes me feel safe and very confident and very strong."

On Sept. 2, outside a Los Angeles courtroom, Cardi had denied being pregnant. When a paparazzo asked if she was having baby No. 4 and mentioned both Offset and Stefon Diggs, Cardi threw a pen at him and said:

“Stop disrespecting me. … Act like you have some manners.”

Later, on Instagram Live, she said:

“No, you stupid b**** … I’m just out of breath ’cause I have asthma.”

Cardi’s baby with Stefon Diggs is expected before February, right before her arena tour starts.

She joked in the interview on "CBS Mornings":

“Now y’all could buy my album so I can buy Pampers and diapers and all that stuff.”

The Patriots wide receiver's girlfriend also said she waited to share the news until she could “close some deals first,” and added that her parents still don’t know.

“I’m scared of them,” she teased.

The baby news came just before her new album, "Am I the Drama?", drops on Friday.

Cardi B and Diggs went Instagram official in May.

Cardi shares three children (daughter, Kulture Kiari Cephus, 7; son Wave Set Cephus, 3; and daughter Blossom) with her ex-husband, Offset. They got divorced in July 2024, ending their seven-year marriage.

Before the baby, Cardi B failed to dedicate time to Stefon Diggs ahead of 2025 NFL season

Just before Week 1 of the NFL season, Stefon Diggs was left without support from his girlfriend Cardi B, as she skipped a planned meetup ahead of his big game against the Las Vegas Raiders.

Cardi said she was too busy preparing for her new album, "Am I the Drama?"

On Sept. 4, via The Jasmine Brand Music, she said:

“This was my boyfriend's last weekend off before his season starts, and I couldn’t even spend my time with him because I've been so busy. … But he definitely understands. We've been talking about this season. We've been talking about September for such a long time because we've been working so hard for what we got going on.”

In the first two games of the 2025 NFL season, Stefon Diggs is slowly getting back into action after his injury.

In the Patriots' 20-13 Week 1 loss to the Raiders, Diggs caught six passes for 57 yards. His longest catch was 16 yards.

After two games, including a 33-27 Week 2 win over the Miami Dolphins, he has 10 catches on 12 targets for 89 yards.
