In a whirlwind of personal joy and professional turmoil, NFL star Stefon Diggs and Grammy-winning rapper Cardi B find themselves at the centre of multiple legal battles, mere weeks after welcoming their first child together. The couple, who became parents to a baby boy in November 2025, are now navigating paternity and assault allegations that have spilled into the public eye, even as Cardi B makes a strong show of support for her partner.
Legal Storms Cloud New Parenthood
The legal troubles for the new parents are twofold. First, Stefon Diggs has been sued by Aileen Lopera, the mother of one of his other children, who is seeking a court order for DNA testing. Simultaneously, Diggs's former private chef, Mila Adams, has filed a formal complaint accusing the Patriots wide receiver of physical violence. The chef's allegations have further entangled Cardi B, suggesting that Diggs's girlfriend asked her to drop the matter, though Cardi B was not directly named in this claim.
Cardi B's Public Defence and Support
Amid a barrage of online criticism for standing by Diggs, Cardi B has taken a firm and public stance. She recently shared a heartfelt post celebrating Diggs's on-field achievement, noting he is the first Patriots wide receiver to surpass 1,000 receiving yards since Julian Edelman in 2019, marking the seventh 1K season of his illustrious career. Her caption, "Covered ALWAYS…Amen!", was a clear message of solidarity.
More directly, the "Bodak Yellow" singer addressed the assault allegations head-on. She posted a screenshot of a text message she claims is from the former private chef, which reads, "I’m sooo sorry, I can’t talk to you… please contact my mediator." In a fiery caption, Cardi B denied any prior knowledge of the assault claims, stating, "Not once has that woman said anything to me about being touched.. NOT ONCE!!" She concluded by asserting her faith in the legal process, vowing to let the courts handle the situation.
Diggs Denies Allegations, Focuses on Field
For his part, Stefon Diggs has strongly denied all allegations levelled against him, maintaining his innocence as he continues to play for the New England Patriots. The legal scandals erupted just as he returned to the field, adding a layer of intense personal pressure to his professional commitments. The situation presents a complex tableau of new family life intersecting with serious legal and public relations challenges for one of sports and entertainment's most talked-about couples.
