Cardi B speaks out on X

Cardi B took to X to defend Stefon Diggs after his former personal chef accused the Patriots receiver of physical abuse during a salary dispute in early December. In the post, Cardi wrote, “Not once has that woman said anything to me about being touched.. NOT ONCE!!” and shared a screenshot she said came from the chef. The post was later deleted; Cardi has not explained why.

What Cardi said and why it matters

Cardi’s public support is notable because of her high profile and vocal presence on social media. Her claim that the chef never raised accusations directly to her echoes statements from Diggs’ legal team, which has denied the allegations. Cardi’s post aimed to cast doubt on the chef’s account by sharing what she said was a private exchange, though the full context of that screenshot has not been independently verified.

Allegations and legal timeline

The former employee alleges Diggs choked and slapped her during a dispute over pay in early December. Diggs’ attorneys have called the allegations untrue. According to reports, Diggs is scheduled to appear for arraignment on Jan. 23.

Why the date is significant

The arraignment is set two days before the AFC Championship Game, a timing that drew attention because of its proximity to a major NFL event. Legal proceedings and team decisions could affect Diggs’ availability depending on how the case progresses.

Team reaction and recent play

Sources say the Patriots are standing with Diggs. On the field, Diggs played against the Miami Dolphins and recorded three catches for 43 yards, demonstrating he remains active for the team amid the controversy.

What’s next

Authorities and the courts will handle the legal process. Cardi B’s public defense and the deleted social post add a social-media chapter to the story, but the case’s outcome will depend on the investigative and legal procedures ahead of the Jan. 23 arraignment.

We will update this story as more details become available from official filings, team statements, and court records.
