Stefon Diggs has revealed the gender of his incoming child with rapper Cardi B. 

The New England Patriots wide receiver, 31, announced on Monday, Nov. 3, that he and the "Savage" singer, 33, are expecting a baby boy. 

Diggs shared the big news while attending the 2025 CFDA Fashion Awards at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City. While walking the red carpet alongside the likes of Rihanna, A$AP Rocky and Naomi Watts, the NFL star told People, "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."

At the event, Diggs also revealed to "Extra" that he and the "Am I the Drama" singer are expecting the baby to arrive "real soon," though he didn't share a specific due date.

Inside Stefon Diggs and Cardi B's growing romance 

Diggs and the Grammy winner have been hot and heavy for several months.

The pair were first spotted together during a Valentine's Day outing in Miami in February 2025, as first reported by TMZ.

They made their public debut while sitting courtside at a Knicks vs. Celtics game at Madison Square Garden three months later. And in September, Cardi B revealed on "CBS Mornings" that she and the NFL wide receiver are expecting a child while doing a media tour for her freshly dropped "Am I The Drama" album.

"I feel very strong,” Cardi told Gayle King. “I feel very powerful that I’m doing all this work, but I’m doing all this work while I’m creating a baby."

Despite the pregnancy, Cardi B doesn't seem to have any plans of slowing down. The rapper is set to kick off her Little Miss Drama Tour on Feb. 11 in Palm Desert, California. 

This will be Cardi B's fourth child. She shares three other children with her ex, rapper Offset.

Diggs, on the other hand, has one child, a daughter named Nova, whom he welcomed with an unknown partner in 2016.
