Offset requests paternity test for Cardi B and Stefon Diggs child

The ongoing divorce proceedings between estranged spouses Cardi B and Offset have taken a significant legal turn following reports of a paternity dispute.

According to TMZ, Offset, born Kiari Kendrell Cephus, filed a court order on 25 February 2026, requesting a DNA test for the child Cardi B shares with NFL star Stefon Diggs.

The infant, born in November 2025, has been a focal point of recent filings, although a judge has reportedly denied the specific request regarding the newborn.

While the petition for the youngest child was rejected, the court has approved a DNA test for one of the "Bodak Yellow" artist's other children.

Cardi and Offset, who wed in 2017, share three children: Kulture, 7; Wave, 4; and Blossom, 1. The rappers’ relationship was marked by multiple reconciliations before Cardi filed for divorce again in July 2024.

She subsequently moved on with Diggs, confirming their romance in May 2025 and welcoming their son later that year.

Despite reports that Cardi and the New England Patriots receiver unfollowed each other following the 2026 Super Bowl, reconciliation rumours surfaced after Diggs attended her "Little Miss Drama Tour" in Washington, D.C., this past Wednesday.

Cardi previously expressed her happiness regarding this new chapter on CBS Mornings, stating she felt she was in a "good space."

For professionals in Pakistan and beyond who monitor celebrity lifestyle news and high-profile legal reports, this development underscores the complexities of high-performance careers played out in the public eye. The rappers’ history continues to influence their current legal strategies and family dynamics.
