Stefon Diggs and Cardi B

After hard-launching at a Knicks playoff game, Cardi B and her boyfriend, New England Patriots receiver Stefon Diggs, appear to be deep in the honeymoon phase — or, rather, they appear to be in the renting-out-a-13th-century-fortress-in-the-French-countryside phase. In an Instagram Story posted on Tuesday, Cardi shared that, since she’s always wanted to visit the Palace of Versailles, Diggs decided to rent out an entire castle for their trip. “He said, ‘Bitch, you want a castle? I’ll give you a castle,’” she summarized. He probably could’ve just taken her to Versailles, but still.
Thankfully for those of us who have not Eurotripped to a castle, Cardi gave her Instagram followers an MTV Cribs–style tour through the lavish venue. “Why this man got us staying in a castle? I’m talking about a real castle,” she said, starting her video by showing off the property’s moat with “real alligators” and working her way through bedrooms, a grand dining room, and a suspicious-looking toilet.
Based on the images Cardi shared, it looks like the couple is staying at the Château de Frenneville, which is 45 minutes outside of Paris. The castle appears to be mainly used for luxury weddings, though a French wedding website points out that the property is great for corporate seminars, private retreats, and “luxury gatherings,” which feels like the correct classification for Cardi’s romantic getaway. There’s a heated indoor pool, a spa, a private velvet-clad theater, a music room, a tennis court, and an underground wine cellar. According to the website, the castle can host up to 400 guests and sleep 90, and it apparently starts at €10,600 a night. (That’s about $12,354.)
I’m not quite sure exactly why the couple needs this much space on their trip to France, but at least they’re not the only ones enjoying the property. In one of her Instagram Stories, Cardi posted a clip of Diggs working out with at least two other people. Looks like a luxury gathering to me!
