There were plenty of reasons to speculate why Cardi B and NFL star Stefon Diggs might’ve been an item following her split from rapper Offset. The pair appeared to confirm as much during a cozy courtside date in May 2025, with fans spotting Diggs and the Grammy winner cheering on the New York Knicks during the team’s showdown against the Boston Celtics. At one point, Cardi was seen on the Jumbotron lovingly squeezing Diggs cheeks.
The following month, Cardi and the athlete would make their relationship Instagram official, making this the “Bodak Yellow” rapper’s first public relationship since filing for divorce from Offset in July 2024. Cardi is used to her relationships being in the public eye, dating all the way back to her Love & Hip-Hop days in 2015. Aside from Offset, Cardi’s only other major public relationship was with rapper Tommy Jeez, from whom she split in 2017.
Things would soon get even more serious between the two lovebirds, with Cardi announcing during the rollout for her Am I the Drama? album that she and the football player are starting a family together. While their baby on the way would mark their first child together, both stars were already parents before their romance began. Cardi shares daughters Kulture and Blossom and son Wave with ‘Set, while Diggs is a dad to a little girl named Nova.
As one of the most talked-about romances in pop culture right now continues to unfold, Billboard is keeping track of all the major milestones in Cardi and Diggs’ love story. Check out a timeline of their relationship below.
