NEW YORK – After vehemently denying that she is with child again, American rapper Cardi B has announced that she is expecting her fourth child, this time with National Football League (NFL) star Stefon Diggs.
Cardi, who has three other children with rapper Offset, delivered the big news during her September 17 appearance on CBS Mornings.
The pregnancy announcement arrived just two days before the September 19 release of her highly anticipated album “Am I the Drama?”
The project marks a significant return for the artist, who has been building anticipation through strategic singles and social media campaigns.
“Yes, I’m having a baby with my boyfriend, Stefon Diggs.”
She added, “I’m excited. I’m happy. I feel like I’m in a good space. I feel very strong, I feel very powerful that I’m doing all this work, but I’m doing all this work while I’m creating a baby.”
The Bronx-born rapper admitted she had been deliberately keeping her pregnancy private despite mounting speculation from fans and media outlets. Her decision to finally confirm the news came with careful consideration about timing and platform choice.
Cardi also opened up more about her relationship with Diggs, saying they’re “very supportive of each other” and are motivated to excel in their respective careers.
“We’re never, like, comfortable. We just wanna keep doing it, and that’s just how we both are,” she said.
Cardi B and Buffalo Bills wide receiver Diggs have been romantically connected since October 2024. Their relationship began following the rapper’s divorce from Offset, which was finalised in July 2024.
