Cardi B welcomes fourth child, her first with boyfriend Stefon Diggs

Grammy-winning rap sensation Cardi B has announced the birth of her fourth child, her first with NFL star Stefon Diggs. The artist, whose real name is Belcalis Almánzar, shared the joyous news on Instagram, expressing her excitement about this new chapter in her life. “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,” she wrote. The baby boy’s arrival comes shortly after the release of her highly anticipated sophomore album, *Am I The Drama?*, which she humorously promoted as a means to afford diapers. Cardi B, who shares three children with her estranged husband Offset, filed for divorce in July 2024. While she has not disclosed specific details about the birth, her spokesperson confirmed to *People* magazine that both mother and baby are “healthy and happy.” Diggs, the New England Patriots wide receiver, revealed the baby’s gender during a recent red-carpet event, stating, “It’s a boy. That’s enough for me. I can’t wait to make him do push-ups and sit-ups and run around.” This marks the second child for Diggs, who has a 9-year-old daughter from a previous relationship. Cardi B also hinted at a fresh start in her Instagram post, sharing a clip from her single *Hello* and emphasizing her commitment to self-improvement and providing her children with the “love and life they deserve.” She told her 163 million followers that she is preparing for a tour to support her new album and is focused on delivering the “performance of a lifetime.” Reflecting on her personal growth, she wrote, “I’ve learned, I’ve healed, and I’m loving the woman I’ve become! That’s what this next era means to me, and I’m stepping into it better than ever.”
