Baby Makes Six: Cardi B and Stefon Diggs Welcome Their First Child Together in Style
In the ever-evolving narrative of Cardi B’s extraordinary life, the Bronx-born rap royalty has just penned her most intimate chapter yet. The 33-year-old Grammy-winning artist has officially welcomed her fourth child—a baby boy—with her boyfriend, New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs, her representative confirmed to TODAY.com on November 13.
True to form, the “Bodak Yellow” sensation kept details refreshingly minimal, allowing the momentous announcement to speak for itself. However, eagle-eyed followers had already begun connecting the dots after Cardi posted a mesmerizing Instagram video of herself commanding attention while strutting to her track “Hello.” The accompanying caption read like poetry—a meditation on transformation, resilience, and the beautiful chaos of motherhood.
“My life has recently been a combination of different chapters and different seasons,” she penned with characteristic vulnerability. Now embarking on what she describes as a “new season,” the artist-mogul reflected that while starting over is “never easy,” it has been “so worth it.” She continued with the kind of raw honesty that has made her a cultural force: “I brought new music and a new album to the world! A new baby into my world, and one more reason to be the best version of me.”
Cardi first revealed her pregnancy during a September 17 CBS News interview with Gayle King, radiating the kind of confidence only she can muster. “I’m having a baby with my boyfriend, Stefon Diggs,” she declared. “I’m excited. I’m happy. I feel like I’m in a good space.” Ever the powerhouse, she noted the remarkable feat of creating life while simultaneously building an empire: “I feel very strong, I feel very powerful that I’m doing all this work while creating a baby.”
The arrival comes strategically timed before her highly anticipated 2026 tour, because naturally, Cardi B doesn’t do anything without meticulous planning.
This newest addition joins Cardi’s three children with ex-husband, rapper Offset: daughter Kulture, son Wave, and daughter Blossom, born in 2024. After filing for divorce from Offset for the second time last year, Cardi has clearly turned the page toward a fresh romantic chapter with Diggs, who is also father to a daughter from a previous relationship.
During an October 6 appearance on the “On Purpose with Jay Shetty” podcast, Cardi offered rare insights into her parenting philosophy and deepest fears. “Please don’t be lazy. Don’t be a bum,” she implored, her voice carrying the weight of maternal devotion. “Some people have the look, the intelligence, the talent… but they don’t go nowhere because they’re lazy.”
While pledging to support her children financially well into adulthood—apartments, cars, the works—she made her expectations crystal clear: “Please become something. Please don’t be nothing. That would be the worst disappointment.”
It’s vintage Cardi: unapologetically honest, fiercely protective, and utterly unfiltered. Welcome to the world, baby Diggs. You’ve been born into quite the dynasty.
