Cardi B Sparks Breakup Rumors After Removing Stefon Diggs Photos from Instagram
Cardi B has once again set the internet ablaze—this time not with a hit single, but with a mysterious social media move that has fans questioning the status of her relationship with NFL star Stefon Diggs.
Just weeks after going Instagram official with the New England Patriots wide receiver, Cardi appears to have scrubbed all traces of Diggs from her profile, prompting speculation of a split. The change came shortly after the pair’s ultra-luxurious vacation in France, where Diggs reportedly rented out the medieval Château de Farcheville as a romantic gesture. “I’m talking about a real castle,” Cardi had gushed in a June Instagram Story.
A Strategic Cleanse or Trouble in Paradise?
While fans are debating whether this marks a breakup or a PR strategy, Cardi has remained tight-lipped. One theory making the rounds is that she archived the photos in anticipation of her upcoming album Am I the Drama?, slated for release on September 19. Industry insiders note it’s not uncommon for artists to wipe their accounts before a major rollout.
Adding to the ambiguity, the rapper and Diggs still follow each other on Instagram, leaving room for interpretation. No official statements have been made by either party’s representatives as of now.
Cardi Addresses the Hustle, Not the Headlines
Instead of speaking directly on the rumors, Cardi chose to highlight her current grind. In a July 6 Instagram Story, she vented about exhaustion while getting glammed up, saying, “That’s why I don’t want to hear no complaining from no fing body because I’m working my ass off. But I want this s f***ing bad.”
Her remarks appear to refer to her upcoming album push, suggesting that her focus remains firmly on her career—for now.
A Timeline of Romance and Reactions
Cardi and Diggs were first linked earlier this year, sharing cozy moments during Valentine’s Day and making waves at Coachella in April. The relationship became Instagram official in June, when Cardi posted pictures of the two enjoying a yacht trip—solidifying what many assumed was a serious romance.
However, not everyone welcomed the new love publicly. Cardi’s ex-husband Offset—whom she divorced in August 2024, just a month before giving birth to their third child—seemed to take a swipe at the reveal. He posted and quickly deleted a cryptic message on X, writing, “Good roll out n PR,” followed by a GIF captioned “TODAY I PASS.” Offset has since remained quiet, while Diggs appeared unfazed, sharing a focused black-and-white shot of himself on the field via Instagram Stories.
Public Mourning and Private Moves
Though fans continue dissecting every detail, it’s worth noting that Cardi has been fiercely private during past relationship transitions. Whether this is a strategic reset for a new era of her music or a real romantic fallout remains to be seen.
Until then, her fans—and the internet at large—will be watching closely as Am I the Drama? nears its release. For now, Cardi B seems less interested in clarifying love rumors and more committed to delivering a career-defining album.
After all, if there’s one thing Cardi never fumbles, it’s a comeback.
