Cardi B Expecting First Child with Stefon Diggs

Cardi B has officially confirmed that she is pregnant with her fourth child, the first she will share with her boyfriend, **Stefon Diggs**, the wide receiver for the New England Patriots. The announcement came during a CBS Mornings interview, where Cardi expressed excitement, strength, and confidence about balancing motherhood with her music and career. She is set to release her second studio album, *Am I the Drama?*, and has a tour lined up, but says the baby is due before it begins in February 2026.

Cardi B’s Children and Family Background

• Kulture Kiari Cephus – born 2018 (~7 years old)
• Wave Set Cephus – born 2021 (~4 years old)
• Blossom Belle – born September 2024 (~1 year old)

Cardi and Offset’s relationship has been high-profile and turbulent over the years, including splits, reconciliations, and public scrutiny. She filed for divorce in 2024, and since then has moved forward personally and professionally. She confirmed her relationship with Diggs publicly in June 2025, though rumors had circulated before then.
