It seems Cardi B and NFL star Stefon Diggs have called it quits once again. Reports indicate that the rapper ended the relationship just days before Diggs’ team, the New England Patriots, faced a tough loss in the Super Bowl. This isn’t the first time the couple has reportedly hit a rough patch, with sources suggesting their relationship has been on-again, off-again.
Signs of Trouble Before the Super Bowl
Whispers of a split began to surface after Cardi B’s public demeanor towards Diggs seemed to change. While she was famously seen celebrating passionately after the Patriots’ AFC Championship win on January 25th, her attitude shifted just a couple of weeks later. When asked by an ESPN reporter for an ‘inspiring message’ for Diggs the day before the Super Bowl, Cardi’s smile faded, and she simply replied, ‘Good luck,’ before quickly walking away.
The situation was further solidified when both Cardi and Diggs unfollowed each other on Instagram shortly after the Super Bowl game, confirming the rumors of trouble in paradise. This pattern of on-again, off-again behavior has been noted by insiders close to the couple.
Cardi B’s Newfound Freedom
Despite the breakup, sources close to Cardi B say she’s doing well and embracing her single status. ‘Cardi is single and putting herself out there again. She feels free,’ an insider revealed. Friends have reportedly been encouraging her, suggesting that Diggs wasn’t the right fit for her and that she deserves better, especially given alleged past betrayals.
Cardi B and Stefon Diggs first sparked dating rumors back in 2024, a few months after Cardi finalized her divorce from Offset. The rapper shares two children, Kulture and Blossom, with Offset. In September 2025, Cardi announced she was expecting her first child with Diggs, a baby boy born on November 4th. However, this news came shortly after a paternity test confirmed Diggs has a 7-month-old daughter with model Aileen Lopera. Diggs is also facing legal charges related to an alleged assault, to which he has pleaded not guilty.
Focusing on Music and Tour
With the drama surrounding her relationship with Diggs now behind her, Cardi B is reportedly dedicating her energy to her music career and her ‘Little Miss Drama Tour.’ The insider mentioned that she’s realized she doesn’t want to be distracted by him while she’s on the road. This focus on her career seems to be a priority for the artist.
While Cardi hasn’t directly addressed the breakup publicly, she did offer a cryptic hint during a February 15th tour stop. Performing her song ‘Pretty & Petty,’ she seemed to reference past relationship issues, possibly alluding to fellow rapper Bia, who had recently made a jab at Diggs on social media regarding his number of children.
