It’s official! NFL wide receiver Stefon Diggs has been confirmed as the father of Instagram model Aileen Lopera’s baby girl, Charliee Harper. This confirmation comes after a court-ordered paternity test, settling a legal matter that began when Lopera, also known online as Lord Gisselle, filed a lawsuit back in December 2024.
Paternity Confirmed, Legal Battle Continues
Lopera’s attorney, Tamar Arminak, released a statement confirming the results: ‘The paternity has been confirmed. Mr. Diggs is the father of the child.’ She added that her client hopes they can now work together to be great parents to their daughter, Charliee Harper, who was born in April 2025.
While the DNA results have established paternity, the legal journey isn’t quite over. Lopera’s legal team indicated that the case remains active, and further proceedings could occur if Diggs and Lopera can’t reach an agreement on custody arrangements and financial responsibilities.
Custody and Expenses: The Next Steps
When Lopera initially filed the lawsuit, she requested full custody of Charliee Harper, with Diggs being granted visitation rights. She also asked that Diggs cover all medical and legal expenses related to the child. Diggs’ response in July included a request for the paternity test and a proposal for joint custody, should he be confirmed as the father. He also expressed a desire to split the costs with Lopera.
Diggs’ Expanding Family
This news comes as Stefon Diggs has also gone public with his relationship with rapper Cardi B, who is expecting their first child together. Cardi B, already a mother to three children with Offset, confirmed her pregnancy in September. For Diggs, Charliee Harper would be his third confirmed child, as he also has a 9-year-old daughter from a previous relationship.
