New England Patriots
“She wasn’t a football girl before I converted her over. But, I’m just thankful to have her in my corner.”
FOXBOROUGH — Stefon Diggs tends to spend most of his press conferences in New England focusing on both his and his teammates’ play on the field.
But on Wednesday, the Patriots wide receiver was candid about the support he’s received from his girlfriend, rapper Cardi B.
“I just appreciate the support. She’s been an amazing support of just me and the Patriots. She wasn’t a football girl before I converted her over,” Diggs said Wednesday. “But, I’m just thankful to have her in my corner. She’s an amazing woman, and [we] continue to build that relationship.
“I don’t talk too much about my personal life. But she’s an amazing woman, and I just appreciate her. Hopefully I can build on that and watch that tree grow.”
Diggs and Cardi B made their first public appearance as a couple in May 2024 while attending a playoff game between the Celtics and Knicks at Madison Square Garden. They welcomed their first child — a son — back in November.
Cardi B has been a familiar face around New England during this Patriots season.
She was spotted sitting with Patriots team owner Robert Kraft at Gillette Stadium during the regular season.
She also took to social media to call out ESPN after all five panelists on “NFL Live” picked the Texans over the Patriots in the divisional round of the playoffs.
“What are y’all talking about?” Cardi B posted on X after New England’s win. “Nothing!”
Cardi B captioned the video, “THEY DIDN’T BELIEVE IN US !!! I LIKE US!!!!! WE ALL WE GOT!!!!! WE ALL WE NEED !!!! #Patsnation.”
Diggs and the Patriots will look to punch their ticket to Super Bowl LX on Sunday when they take on the Denver Broncos in the AFC Championship Game. Kick-off is set for 3 p.m.
