Stefon Diggs officially became the father of his sixth child in November 2025 after genetic testing confirmed his paternity for Charliee Harper Diggs-Lopera. The legal confirmation resolves a dispute that began in July when Diggs filed a court response stating he was "not certain" of parentage. The NFL wide receiver now shares custody obligations with Aileen Lopera, a Fashion Nova ambassador who filed the original paternity suit in September 2025.
Lopera alleged in her filing that she had requested both legal and physical custody of the daughter, born in April 2025, along with reimbursement for pregnancy and childbirth expenses. Diggs countered by seeking joint legal and physical custody if the testing confirmed he was the father. The court documents also outlined a plan to share the costs of delivery and legal fees. The November test results settled the question, adding Charliee to Diggs' existing five children.
The expansion of Diggs' family occurred rapidly during 2025. Reports indicate the former New England Patriots star welcomed four children that year. Grey, born to Diggs and Cardi B, turned one on November 4, 2025. B marked the occasion on Instagram, describing the period of his birth as a time of high pressure where the unborn son provided her with extra strength. She wrote that Grey gave a new meaning to what a grey day feels like.
Diggs also welcomed Colm, a son shared with Instagram model K'yanna Barber, during the 2025 holiday season. Barber, known for her connection to Drake's song "In My Feelings," shared photos of the boy on social media. In the same period, Diggs celebrated the first birthday of Peyton, a daughter he has with Instagram model Cayy Benji. Page Six reported that Benji and Diggs hosted a princess-themed party for the child in May 2025.
Before the 2025 arrivals, Diggs had already fathered two other children. Nova, born in October 2016, is his eldest daughter, shared with former partner Tyler-Marie. Shiloh, born in 2023 to Kennedy Moore, attended several of her father's NFL games and joined him on the field. Moore documented Shiloh's first birthday celebration in a 2024 TikTok video featuring a Hello Kitty theme.
The family dynamic has drawn public attention due to the volume of new arrivals. Cardi B and Diggs reportedly ended their romantic relationship in February 2025 but have spent time together again. A source told People in May that Diggs made an effort to work things out for the sake of their son. The source noted that B had distanced herself due to trust concerns but was becoming more open to the relationship.
Diggs' mother, Stephanie, posted on Instagram to celebrate Grey's first birthday, referring to him as King. The wide receiver has shared glimpses of all six children on social media, including holiday photos from 2025 that featured Colm and Peyton. The confirmed paternity of Charliee marks the final step in a year that saw Diggs' family size double.
