Diggs cryptic response to Cardi B pregnancy amid paternity suit

Cardi B announced on CBS Mornings on Wednesday that she is pregnant with Stefon Diggs' child, a revelation that has drawn attention to the NFL star's personal life amid a high-profile paternity case. New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs faced reporters the next day and gave a cryptic answer when asked about the baby rumors. "Oh my personal life, I told you about that. We don't talk too much about my personal life," Diggs said, adding that he had "heard about it" but would not provide further comment.

In Los Angeles, Aileen Lopera filed a paternity petition last December naming Diggs as the father of her unborn daughter, Charliee Harper Diggs-Lopera. Lopera, who uses the moniker Lord Gisselle on social media, was pregnant at the time of the filing, and the child was listed as due before the next chapter of legal proceedings. The court filing also notes that Diggs and Lopera are tied to the case through the child, who is identified with the surname Diggs-Lopera. Cardi B announced she is pregnant with Diggs' child during a national interview, with the public attention intensifying as the paternity matter moved through the courts.

Diggs publicly addressed the suit in July, saying he is unsure if the child is his, despite Lopera listing both of their last names for Charliee. Lopera has sought sole custody, while Diggs has requested joint legal and physical custody. The filing also requests that Diggs cover pregnancy and birth expenses in addition to attorney fees.

Diggs signed a three-year, $69 million contract with the New England Patriots in March, with $26 million guaranteed. Cardi B’s pregnancy announcement came during her CBS Mornings interview, and the due date was noted as coming before her next tour starts in February. The overlapping headlines place Diggs at a crossroads of professional obligations and a highly public personal matter, drawing continued scrutiny from fans and observers of NFL and entertainment news alike.

The case remains active in the Los Angeles courts, with both sides asserting their positions about custody and financial support. While the public attention has grown, the parties have limited public comment beyond court filings and scheduled appearances. The intersection of sports contracts, celebrity relationships, and paternity litigation has kept Diggs in the spotlight as both a player and a public figure.
