Offset Requests DNA Test for Cardi B’s Newborn with Stefon Diggs, Court Denies the Request
Court documents disclose a paternity conflict as divorce tensions rise.
The tension surrounding Cardi B and Offset’s separation is intensifying in court, as paternity issues have now emerged as a significant aspect of the ongoing fallout. Newly surfaced legal documents related to their ongoing divorce reveal that Offset has requested DNA testing concerning Cardi’s youngest child, prompting questions about whether he or Stefon Diggs is the biological father.
In February 2026, a judge examined the request and ultimately denied the motion concerning that particular child while granting a different paternity-related request involving another child. The ruling addresses part of Offset’s challenge, leaving some aspects unresolved, but it affirms that the issue has entered official proceedings rather than remaining as mere online speculation.
The information regarding the children is still partially sealed, with their birth dates redacted in the order. Nonetheless, the court identified one child as a newborn, which corresponds with reports indicating that Cardi gave birth to a baby in late 2025. Cardi and Offset welcomed their most recent child together in 2024.
The court issued a firm directive to both parties, prohibiting them from making any disparaging or defamatory statements about one another in public or on social media. The clause indicates that underlying tensions have escalated to a point where legal boundaries have become essential.
Cardi initiated divorce proceedings in 2024 following a pattern of public separations and reunions. Although the couple had previously succeeded in rebuilding their relationship, this latest development seems more conclusive, particularly with the introduction of paternity disputes.
Together, they have three children from their relationship, and Cardi’s reported fourth child has introduced an additional layer of complexity to an already high-profile split that is still unfolding in court.
