Popular American rapper Cardi B has publicly responded to mounting criticism from fans regarding her relationship with NFL star Stefon Diggs. In a heartfelt plea, she asked her followers to be less harsh as she navigates the complex demands of parenthood, her personal life, and preparations for her upcoming music tour.
A Candid Plea on Social Media
In a raw and unfiltered video shared on her social media platforms on Monday night, December 30, 2025, the 'Bodak Yellow' hitmaker expressed clear frustration with the constant public scrutiny. Cardi B stressed that she cannot alter decisions made in the past and is now entirely focused on building her future. She called for more empathy from critics, highlighting the significant emotional impact that relentless judgment can have on a person.
Balancing Motherhood and a Blended Family
The rapper's personal life has been a major point of discussion. Cardi B and Diggs, who plays as a wide receiver for the New England Patriots, welcomed a baby boy together in November 2025. They had first confirmed their relationship publicly back in May of the same year.
This new addition expands both stars' existing families. Cardi B is also a mother to three children from her previous marriage to fellow rapper Offset, from whom she is now estranged. Meanwhile, Stefon Diggs is a father to three daughters from his own prior relationships.
Ending on a Positive Note
Despite the serious tone addressing the negativity, Cardi B's video also featured her signature moments of humour and blunt honesty. She concluded her message on an uplifting and forward-looking note.
The Grammy-winning artist encouraged her fans to support her professionally by attending her upcoming tour, enjoying the music, and choosing to spread love instead of engaging in online negativity. She expressed her wishes for prosperity and happiness for all her supporters and hoped to receive the same positive energy in return.
