Grammy-winning rapper Cardi B has issued a direct plea to her followers, urging them to 'calm down' after intense online speculation about the state of her relationship with NFL star Stefon Diggs.
Fans Fuel Speculation After Christmas Absence
The rumours began swirling after observant fans noted that Stefon Diggs was conspicuously absent from Cardi B's Christmas posts on Instagram. Reports subsequently indicated that the couple, who welcomed their first child together just in November, spent the festive period separately. This absence sparked a wave of conjecture across social media platforms about a potential rift.
Cardi B's Blunt Response to Critics
Addressing the rumours head-on, Cardi B did not hold back. She directly challenged followers who had been making demands, telling those asking her to 'leave my man' or 'put my baby back' to stop. In her statement, the artist highlighted the dual pressures she is currently facing: navigating new motherhood and preparing for significant work commitments, including extensive tour rehearsals.
Cardi B explicitly requested support from her fanbase during this busy and personal time, rather than criticism and unfounded speculation.
A History of Public Scrutiny
Cardi B and Stefon Diggs first made their relationship public in May 2023, following earlier romance rumours. This is not the first time the couple has been the subject of breakup talk. Previous speculation in July was dismissed by Cardi B, who attributed it to being 'dramatic' and simply archiving old social media posts.
The rapper also used the opportunity to share major personal news, announcing that she is expecting her fourth child. This revelation adds another layer to the current narrative surrounding her family life and relationship with Diggs.
