Cardi B wears Stefon Diggs jersey in Call Her Daddy interview as she reveals pregnancy

Cardi B is pregnant and marked the moment with a bold fashion statement during her Call Her Daddy interview, wearing Stefon Diggs’ New England Patriots jersey paired with a plaid skirt, statement Vivienne Westwood pearls, and black-rimmed glasses. The look, described by Cardi as a way to honor her partner while staying true to her personal style, included the singer noting, “I wanted to do a jersey, but I wanted to do my style,” when host Alex Cooper asked about the ensemble.

The appearance provided a vivid entry point into Cardi B’s evolving relationship with the NFL wide receiver, who is the father of her unborn child. The couple had been the subject of romance rumors dating back to last year, after being photographed together in February and then making their relationship public with a PDA-filled NBA outing in May. Cardi’s interview offered insight into how Diggs has influenced her life, with the performer recalling how respectful he was from the start: “I could feel the vibe that he liked me, but he, like, never approached me.” The two began talking for long stretches, and Cardi described days when she would talk for hours, sometimes six or seven hours, realizing that she wanted him in her life.

Last week, after concealing her pregnancy for months with strategic styling choices, Cardi revealed that she and Diggs are expecting. She shared the news during a television interview with Gayle King on CBS Mornings: “I’m having a baby with my boyfriend, Stefon Diggs. 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.” A few days later, the pregnant entertainer appeared at her Apple Music album launch event for Am I The Drama?, turning heads in a daring sheer black lace catsuit with an exterior pearl bra and cascading strands of pearls, complemented by a pearl choker and voluminous platinum blond waves that channeled old Hollywood glamour.

Cardi has shown throughout her career that pregnancy won’t slow her stylistic ambitions. She has described her due date as prior to a planned tour in February, and she indicated that she intends to continue pursuing her music despite impending motherhood. The performer spotlighted that she plans to tour in February, asserting that she will balance artistic commitments with her growing family. The broader arc of Cardi B’s public life—encompassing chart-topping hits, high-profile collaborations, and bold fashion moments—continues to intersect with motherhood as she navigates the next chapter of her career.
