Cardi B stunned fans on Wednesday, Sept. 17, 2025, when she confirmed she is expecting her fourth child and first with New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs. The Grammy-winning rapper broke the news just months before her “Little Miss Drama” tour started in February 2026.
She described the moment as empowering, saying she has been doing all this work while creating a baby, underscoring how she and Diggs have supported each other through the process.

In her interview with CBS News, Cardi B explained why she waited to go public. She said she wanted to “close some deals first” and ensure her baby’s health before making any announcement. That decision aligns with her high-profile career, which includes three children with ex-husband Offset: daughters Kulture and Blossom and a four-year-old son, Wave. Diggs also has a daughter from a previous relationship.
Cardi B confirms exclusively to @GayleKing that she is pregnant with her fourth child with boyfriend Stefon Diggs, and she will give birth before her tour begins in February:

The 32-year-old artist emphasized the strength of her bond with Diggs.
“I feel like I’m in a good space. I feel very strong. I feel very powerful that I’m doing all this work. But I’m doing all this work while I’m creating a baby, and me and my man, we’re very supportive of each other…He just makes me feel safe and very confident, and very strong… And it makes you feel like you could take over the world,” she said, framing the pregnancy as both personal and professional momentum.
Her remarks echo her Instagram post earlier this year in which she pushed back on breakup rumors, showing the couple’s stability before this milestone.
This announcement caps a notable month for Cardi B. Earlier in September, a California jury found her not liable for assault in a 2018 civil case brought by former security guard Emani Ellis. The jury deliberated less than an hour before siding with Cardi, who warned she would countersue any future “frivolous lawsuit” attempts.
The timing is also significant for Diggs, who is now in his first season with New England. The wideout remains a centerpiece of the Patriots’ offense after his trade from Buffalo, and now he heads into the NFL’s midseason with major personal news off the field.
