Stefon Diggs Shares First Comments About Baby Boy After Cardi B Gives Birth to Their Son

Stefon Diggs has officially broken his silence — and he did it with unmistakable pride and tenderness. Days after Cardi B revealed the first photos of their newborn son, the New England Patriots wide receiver jumped into the comments of her Instagram post with messages overflowing with affection for both his girlfriend and their baby boy.

Cardi’s post, shared on Wednesday, Nov. 19, marked the first time fans had seen the little one since news broke that she had welcomed her fourth child earlier this month. In one photo, the rapper cradles her son in a serene nursery, the sleeping newborn bundled in a Patriots cap and matching onesie — a sweet, deliberate nod to Diggs’ team. The soft lighting, the gentle hold, and the simplicity of the moment gave fans their first intimate glimpse into the family’s newest chapter.

Diggs didn’t hesitate to make his feelings known. “Proud of you boo butt !!!! Love you 💕,” he wrote, adding several more comments as he scrolled through the carousel of photos. Seeing his son in the tiny Patriots outfit, he added, “There he issssssss,” stretching out the words with the kind of excitement that needs no explanation. Then came a third message: “Baby brim 😙😙😙😙😙,” a reference to the baby’s nickname — one the couple has been using privately and now shared with millions of fans. The child’s full name remains undisclosed, but the affection in Diggs’ words said everything his followers needed to know.

Cardi also included a hospital photo taken shortly after the birth. In it, she and Diggs sit close together, their newborn tucked between them, his face intentionally blurred as they continue to protect his identity. Another image shows Cardi curled gently around her sleeping son, and a final close-up captures the details of his tiny outfit. Her caption — a simple “11/4 🧸🩶🏈” — revealed his birth date and subtly tied together the motifs of babyhood, family, and football.

Earlier this month, Cardi’s rep confirmed to PEOPLE that she had given birth to a healthy baby boy on Nov. 4. “Cardi is healthy and happy,” the statement said, marking the joyous moment for the rapper, who shares daughters Kulture and Blossom and son Wave with her ex-partner Offset. This baby is Cardi’s first child with Diggs, who has two daughters of his own: Nova and Charliee.

The path to this moment has been unfolding for months. Cardi first publicly confirmed her pregnancy during an interview on CBS Mornings that aired on Sept. 17. In the sit-down conversation with Gayle King, Cardi didn’t shy away from sharing the news directly — and proudly. “I’m having a baby with my boyfriend, Stefon Diggs,” she said with a smile, her hand resting on her stomach. King congratulated her, and Cardi responded with the kind of honesty that has become her trademark. “I’m excited,” she said. “I’m happy. I feel like I’m in a good space. I feel very strong, very powerful that I’m doing all this work — but I’m doing all this work while I’m creating a baby.”

Since announcing the pregnancy, the couple has kept much of their relationship private, but fans have noted how openly supportive Diggs has been throughout. His comments on Cardi’s new photos only reinforced that image — a father excited for the newest addition to his growing family, and a partner expressing love in the simplest, most genuine way.

For Cardi, this marks both a new beginning and a continuation of the family life she has built over the past several years. For Diggs, it’s another chapter in fatherhood — one he seems eager and ready to embrace. And for fans, the photos and the comments were more than just celebrity updates; they were a glimpse into a joyful moment shared between two people who have rarely been this publicly tender.

The couple has yet to reveal their son’s name or additional details, and for now, they seem content to savor the early days privately. But with these first photos — and Diggs’ heartfelt messages — they’ve given the world a warm, hopeful look at their new life together as a family of three.
