The paternity test results have confirmed that NFL player Stefon Diggs is the father of model Aileen Lopera‘s baby girl. According to Lopera’s attorney, Tamar Arminak, the confirmation was announced on November 5, 2024. Arminak stated, “The paternity has been confirmed. Mr. Diggs is the father of the child.” With this acknowledgment, Lopera hopes to establish a cooperative parenting relationship as they navigate their new roles.
Lopera, who is known on social media as Lord Giselle, initiated legal proceedings against Diggs in December 2024 in Los Angeles. She filed a paternity suit requesting both legal and physical custody of her daughter, named Charliee Harper Diggs-Lopera, who was born in April 2024. The suit also seeks child support and reimbursement for pregnancy-related expenses and legal fees.
Diggs, who plays for the New England Patriots, responded to the suit in July, expressing uncertainty about his paternity and requesting a genetic test. He also sought joint legal and physical custody should the test confirm his role as the father. Arminak indicated that the case remains active and will proceed if the parties cannot reach an amicable resolution.
In September, Arminak shared with Us Weekly that her client looks forward to the day when Diggs recognizes his responsibilities toward their daughter. Meanwhile, Lopera has maintained a public presence, including a notable comment during an Instagram Live session where she remarked on the complexities of their situation.
Meanwhile, Diggs has been in a relationship with rapper Cardi B, who recently disclosed in an interview with Gayle King that she is expecting a child with him. Cardi, aged 33, expressed her excitement about their growing family and indicated that Diggs provides her with a strong sense of support.
This revelation about Diggs’ paternity status has captured public attention, especially given the dynamic within the entertainment and sports communities. Cardi, who shares three children with her ex-husband Offset, described Diggs as someone who makes her feel “safe and very confident.”
As both Diggs and Lopera navigate their new circumstances, the implications of their legal proceedings will likely unfold in the coming months. The situation underscores the challenges that public figures face in balancing personal relationships with their professional lives, especially when children are involved.
