As previously reported by REVOLT, Cardi B announced her pregnancy with Diggs in September while promoting her sophomore album, AM I THE DRAMA? During an interview on CBS Mornings, she confirmed, “I am having a baby with my boyfriend, Stefon Diggs.”
The 33-year-old described how the NFL player helped her heal and regain her confidence after a difficult public breakup. “He just makes me feel safe and very confident and very strong,” she said.

Cardi also shared that Diggs restored her faith in love after heartbreak. “He just told me, ‘Let me heal you. Give me a chance for me to heal you,’” she said — and it seems he’s doing exactly that.
