“Pregnant Cardi B’s Boyfriend Stefon Diggs Hit With Explosive Paternity Suit: Model Claims NFL Star Fathered 5-Month-Old Baby as Rapper Prepares to Welcome Their First Child Together”
The worlds of hip-hop and professional football have collided in a storm of controversy after shocking new claims surfaced involving Buffalo Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs and rap superstar Cardi B. Just days after Cardi proudly announced her pregnancy—her first child with Diggs—court filings revealed that the NFL star is facing a paternity lawsuit from a model who insists he fathered her infant daughter earlier this year.
According to documents obtained by Page Six, Colombian model Aileen Lopera, known online as Lord Gisselle, filed a petition in Los Angeles Superior Court in December 2024 while pregnant, seeking to establish Diggs as the legal father of her child, Charliee Harper Diggs-Lopera, who was born in April 2025. Lopera has requested legal and physical custody of the baby while offering Diggs visitation rights, a move that suggests she expects him to play a role in the child’s upbringing.
The bombshell comes at a sensitive time, as Cardi B recently revealed she is expecting her fourth child overall, but her first with Diggs. The “WAP” rapper and the NFL standout went public with their romance earlier this year, drawing plenty of attention from fans and gossip blogs alike. News that another woman is claiming Diggs fathered a baby just months before Cardi’s pregnancy announcement has now set social media ablaze, sparking debates, memes, and fierce speculation about the future of their relationship.
Diggs, for his part, has strongly pushed back against the allegations. In his official response to Lopera’s filing, the 30-year-old athlete asked the court to order DNA testing to determine whether he is indeed the father of the child. His legal team has also requested that any financial support or custody arrangements be postponed until the results are confirmed. As of now, no ruling has been made, and the case remains ongoing.
This is not the first time Stefon Diggs has found himself in the spotlight for his personal life. He is already the father of a daughter, Nova, born in 2016 from a previous relationship. The star wide receiver has often spoken publicly about the importance of fatherhood, sharing glimpses of his bond with Nova on social media.
For Cardi B, who is no stranger to public scrutiny herself, the timing of this legal drama could prove especially challenging. The Grammy winner had recently been celebrating the next chapter of her life with Diggs, gushing about motherhood and her growing family. Now, fans are wondering how the unfolding paternity dispute might impact her pregnancy journey and her relationship with the NFL star.
As the story develops, one thing is certain: with Cardi B’s star power and Stefon Diggs’ high-profile NFL career, this case will continue to generate headlines far beyond the courtroom. Until the results of the paternity test are revealed, the allegations remain unproven—but the drama has already captured the attention of the entertainment and sports worlds alike.
