Cardi B and boyfriend Stefon Diggs received a special shoutout from the NFL following heartwarming personal news.
The award-winning singer has been making headlines after giving birth to their first baby together.
On Nov. 13, the "Bodak Yellow" hitmaker quietly welcomed their baby boy and shared the news in a subtle, low-key way.
In an Instagram post, the New York native shared a video of her lip synching to her song "Hello."
What caught fans off guard was that Cardi B was no longer rocking her baby bump, hinting that she had already given birth.
However, she clarified this in the comments, explaining that she was gearing up for a "new season" from her new bundle of joy to her upcoming tour.
"My last chapter was the beginning of a new season. Starting over is never easy, but it's been so worth it! I brought new music and a new album to the world! A new baby into my world and one more reason to be the best version of me, one more reason to love me more than anything else or anyone else so I can continue giving my babies the love and life they deserve."

The comment section was flooded with congratulatory messages from her fellow celebrities like Paris Hilton, Naomi Campbell, Lizzo, Lala Kent and fans who were delighted with the news.
In addition to that, the NFL also marked the couple's milestone with a sweet tribute.
The league posted a thoughtful message to the pair as they welcomed their little one.

Unfortunately, others had a different take on the NFL's move after Cardi B and Diggs' baby announcement.
"I wish these sports networks would just post things about SPORTS," a fan noted.
"This is a bit wild. NFL ain't TMZ," another echoed.
A commenter sarcastically said, "Good promotion, NFL. Great family structure here."
"Now what does this have to do with the NFL???" a fan wondered.
A commenter even mentioned another NFL WAG and said, "People complained nonstop about the NFL Travis and Taylor who are totally wholesome but will gladly embrace ts."
While this is the couple's first baby together, the Grammy-winning singer shares three other children, daughters Kulture and Blossom and son Wave, with her ex-husband Offset.
As for the Patriots' wide receiver, he is a father of two daughters named Nova and Charliee.
