New England Patriots star Stefon Diggs is definitely excited about becoming a father again, and he also can’t wait to welcome his unborn child with his girlfriend, Cardi B.
In an interview with PEOPLE at the 2025 CFDA Fashion Award, Diggs, 31, touched on his unborn child and even revealed the baby’s sex.
“It’s a boy. That’s enough for me,” he disclosed. “I can’t wait to make him do push-ups and sit-ups and run around.”
In a separate interview with Extra at the event, Diggs also touched on how soon their baby was going to be born. “It’s supposed to happen real soon, so wish us both luck,” he said.
In September, Cardi, who shares three children with her estranged husband Offset, announced that she was expecting her fourth child with Diggs. And though Diggs is excited about welcoming his unborn child with Cardi, it appears that the NFL star has a paternity case to resolve, as a model is claiming that he’s the father of her months-old baby, Face2Face Africa previously reported.

According to TMZ, Aileen Lopera, an influencer and model, was pregnant when she filed a petition in Los Angeles County in December 2024 to confirm parental relationship. At the time, Lopera, who goes by the username Lord Gisselle on social media, claimed in the petition that her yet-to-be-born baby’s father was Diggs.
But the New England Patriots wide receiver stated that he was “not certain” about being the father of the child. Lopera welcomed her baby in April, and Diggs, who filed a response in July, claimed that he couldn’t tell if he was indeed her father. Diggs asked for official genetic testing to resolve the case.
Lopera and Diggs were ultimately ordered to undergo genetic testing after a judge signed a stipulation on July 17. But it could not be established whether Lopera and Diggs had undergone the tests. It could also not be determined if there was ultimately an outcome, that is if the pair had indeed done the tests.
“My client looks forward to the day Mr. Diggs acknowledges and provides for his infant daughter in Los Angeles,” Tamar Arminak, who is Lopera’s lawyer, told The U.S. Sun.
