In a shocking twist of events, it has been confirmed that Cardi B’s boyfriend, Stefon Diggs, did, in fact, father Aileen Lopera’s seven-month-old daughter. 

Lopera dragged Diggs to court last year, claiming that he was the father of her child, who was unborn at the time. However, the NFL star denied the claims and requested genetic testing to ascertain the baby’s paternity. 

Meanwhile, Diggs is also expecting a child with his girlfriend, Cardi B, who announced her pregnancy in September.

Lopera, an Instagram model also known as Lord Giselle, gave birth to a child in April, and the child’s paternity has now been confirmed. 

As reported by Page Six, Lopera’s attorney said, “The paternity has been confirmed. Mr. Diggs is the father of the child.” 

The attorney also emphasized that the influencer is interested in finding a way to raise the child amicably with Diggs in the picture. “Now that the child’s paternity has been established and Mr. Diggs has acknowledged his daughter, my client hopes they can work toward being great parents to their child,” the attorney added. 

Following confirmation of the paternity of Lopera’s daughter, Charliee Harper Diggs-Lopera, the model’s attorney clearly stated that the case is still far from over. Since there are still other logistics to figure out concerning raising the child, Lopera’s legal team intends to “move forward” with the case if the model and the NFL star are not able to amicably sort their issues out. 

When Lopera filed the paternity lawsuit against Diggs in December 2024, she asked the court to grant her legal and physical custody of the child. She also asked that Diggs be granted visitation rights, adding that he should pay for her pregnancy, delivery, and attorney expenses.

After Lopera filed the suit against the American football wide receiver, he denied her claims, stressing that he doubted the validity of her accusations.

As The Blast reported, the judge then ordered both parties to undergo mandatory genetic testing to ascertain the paternity of the child. 

Diggs requested that if he was proven to be the father, he should have joint legal and physical custody of the child. He also asked that the pregnancy, birth, and attorney expenses be split between him and Lopera.

While Diggs and Lopera’s paternity suit was ongoing, Cardi B was growing a bun for the NFL player. She then hopped on Instagram Live to indirectly declare support for her partner despite the allegations. 

According to The Blast, the “Bodak Yellow” rapper quoted Shirley Brown’s line on “Woman to Woman,” referencing how Brown reached out to another woman who was having an affair with her partner. 

Cardi B declared that whatever the case was, she was ready to figure it out with all parties involved. “That's your baby daddy, b-tch? That's my baby daddy, too. What now? I don't f-cking know. We'll figure it out, b-tch,” she said.

Before Cardi B reacted to her lover’s legal drama with Lopera, the NFL star was seen with an unidentified woman and a baby carrier, as The Blast reported.

In September, a four-month-old video resurfaced showing Diggs leaving a New York medical facility while holding a baby carrier and walking to an SUV. Meanwhile, there was an unidentified woman in the backseat of the car. 

At the time, there were reports that the woman might have been Lopera. However, the Instagram model’s lawyer came forward to refute the claims, stressing that her client was not the woman in the video.
