Cardi B might be stunning with a new diamond on that finger.

Grammy-winning singer Jhené Aiko’s boyfriend, NFL wide receiver Stefon Diggs, hinted at a possible engagement. While he’s focused on winning the Super Bowl against the Seattle Seahawks on February 8th, he suggested a ring for Aiko could be coming soon.

When reporters asked about a possible engagement, Stefon playfully responded on February 2nd, saying it was ‘on the agenda.’ He then added with a laugh, ‘Maybe, right? I need to get my own first!’

I’m so thrilled for Stefon! Before they dive into wedding planning, he’s taking a moment to appreciate Cardi – she’s been amazing, especially after welcoming their little boy in November. It meant so much to see her fully embrace the other wives and girlfriends of the Patriots players during what was such a fantastic season for him. It just feels like everything is falling into place for them!

Stefon shared during an interview how much he values his partner’s support. He described her as an incredible person and acknowledged it isn’t easy being with him. He makes a point of showing her how grateful he is, not just during games, but for everything she does, even when she’s not physically present.

He explained that she had been watching the games and was also texting him both before and after, checking to see if he was okay.

Cardi B, who shares children Kulture (7), Wave (4), and Blossom (16 months) with her husband Offset, was in attendance to watch Stefon and the Patriots win against the Denver Broncos on January 25th, securing their spot in the championship game.

The rapper, known for her song “Outside,” recently started dating Stefon after finalizing her divorce from Offset in August 2024. She enthusiastically celebrated on the field after this significant achievement.

Cardi, age 32, excitedly announced the team’s win in a now-deleted Instagram Story, shouting, “We’re going to the Super Bowl!” She also playfully told Stefon Diggs, “You’re amazing!”

As for cheering the loudest for her man, Cardi promised to do it errtime.

Cardi B shared her excitement and pride for her partner in a recent interview with the NFL Network. She was thrilled to see his recovery from an ACL injury and how far he’d come, from first starting to run again to now playing in the Super Bowl with the Patriots. She also expressed her excitement for the entire team, acknowledging all their hard work.

Cardi B praised Stefon’s dedication and rigorous training as the key to his achievements, simply stating, “Discipline, discipline, and hard work.”

It’s not about feeling instantly motivated; it’s about discipline. That means consistently going to bed and waking up early, and never taking a day off work. It requires real, consistent hard work and dedication.

To look back on Cardi and Stefon’s romance, keep reading…

Fans were already aware of Cardi B’s love for Balenciaga shoes when, in October 2024, rumors started circulating about a possible romance with NFL player Stefon Diggs. These rumors gained traction after the pair were photographed together on Valentine’s Day 2025.

Cardi hasn’t shared the details of how they met, but she has said she was immediately attracted to him.

“I thought he was cute,” she explained on an episode of Today in September 2025. “I knew I wanted to get to know him.”

Instead of trying to downplay the buzz, the Grammy-winning musician and the athlete happily embraced the attention when they were seen together at a Met Gala after-party in May 2025.

Okay, so things really heated up for Cardi B and Stefon Diggs later that month! They officially confirmed they were dating while enjoying a fun night out at the Celtics-Knicks game in New York. It was a pretty public debut, and everyone was definitely buzzing about it!

It’s hard to keep a relationship private. And dating in your thirties is challenging, but I really like him – I’m in love with him, right now,” Cardi B told Billboard in September 2025. “I’ve always been afraid of dating because I’ve been in a long-term relationship since I was about 21.

Cardi B and Stefon Diggs appeared to have a fantastic Memorial Day weekend, enjoying themselves on a yacht in Miami.

In June 2025, the actor known for “Money” and their football player partner publicly confirmed their relationship, first on Instagram and then with a trip to Paris.

As a huge fan, I, along with everyone else, started to get worried when Cardi and Stefon’s initial announcement post disappeared from Instagram back in July 2025. But then Cardi quickly put our minds at ease! She posted a TikTok in August showing off this gorgeous Patek Philippe watch Stefon got her. She explained he surprised her with it while they were at London Jewelers – she thought he was buying a watch for himself, and then boom, it was for her! It was so sweet, and definitely reassured us things were still great between them. Honestly, it was the cutest!

Rumors began circulating weeks later that Cardi B might be expecting another child. When directly asked about the baby’s father, she quickly shut down the question. In September 2025, while leaving a courthouse in Los Angeles after winning a high-profile case, she firmly told the person who asked, “You’re being disrespectful. Don’t ask me that.” She continued, pointing out the double standard, “Do you ever see women being asked those kinds of questions? Why do you think you have the right to ask me that? Show some respect – your mother should have taught you to respect women.” Cardi already shares three children – Kulture, Wave, and Blossom – with her ex, Offset.

Later that month, Cardi B confirmed she and Stefon Diggs are expecting a baby. This will be their first child together, but Cardi is already a mother of three, and Stefon has one daughter from a previous relationship named Nova.

In an interview with CBS Mornings in September 2025, Cardi joked, “Everyone told me to have fun, and we had a little too much fun, and now here I am!” She and Stefon shared that they are very excited and happy about the new arrival.

Cardi also had a playful message for those who had been speculating about her pregnancy. “Now you can all buy my album so I can afford diapers and everything the baby needs!” she said, referring to her album Am I the Drama? “I told you I was pregnant. Now go support my album because I’m a mom of four now!”

Cardi B shared that starting a relationship with Stefon after her divorce required her to be open and trusting. He offered to support her emotional healing, telling her he wanted to help her feel better. Stefon is both supportive and encouraging; he defended her when criticism arose around her new album. Cardi explained that his encouragement boosted her confidence, making her feel safe and empowered. She feels like she can achieve anything with his support. The support is mutual, and Cardi has even become a football fan, enthusiastically cheering during games and offering her opinions on the plays.

Shortly after Cardi announced her pregnancy, Stefon made headlines over a lawsuit model Aileen Lopera filed in December 2024 in which she accused him of fathering her baby girl born in April 2025, per court documents obtained by People. According to his response obtained by the outlet, Stefon has contested the allegation that he fathered the child and has requested genetic testing to determine paternity.

Cardi then appeared to address the drama on social media.

“Hello, Barbara. This is Shirley,” she said in a September 2025, giving a nod to the lyrics of Shirley Brown’s song “Woman to Woman” in which a woman calls up her partner’s mistress. “That’s your baby daddy, b—h? That’s my baby daddy, too. Well what now? I don’t f–king know. We’ll figure it out b—h.”
