Cardi B Responds to Backlash Over Stefon Diggs Christmas Absence

Cardi B is making one thing clear: the internet needs to relax.

After fans questioned why she and boyfriend Stefon Diggs spent Christmas apart, the Rap star took to social media to shut down the growing criticism.

More details below…

The chatter began after it emerged that the couple’s newborn son spent Christmas with Cardi, while Diggs celebrated separately with his two older children.

As speculation mounted, Cardi addressed the situation directly in a video shared to X.

“Y’all need to calm down. I can’t change nothing. I already had a baby. We can only go forward now.”

The 33-year-old also opened up about feeling overwhelmed as she prepares for a demanding 2026 tour schedule, noting that time away from her children will already be difficult without added online scrutiny.

“I need my support system, my fans, to love me,” she added, urging followers to show grace instead of judgment.
