Stefon Diggs has "converted" Cardi B to loving NFL.

The New England Patriots player appreciates the support he gets from his 33-year-old partner - who gave birth to his son last November - in his career, particularly because she was never interested in football before they met.

Promoting his side earlier this week, the 32-year-old sportsman said in a clip shared to X: "I just appreciate the support. She's been an amazing supporter [of] me and the Patriots.

"You know, she wasn't a football girl before I converted her over, but I'm just thankful to have her in my corner. She's an amazing woman."

Stefon - who has three other children from previous relationships - is looking forward to seeing his romance with the WAP hitmaker "grow".

He added: "You know, [we're] continuing to build that relationship. I don't talk too much about my personal life but she's an amazing woman. I just appreciate her. Hopefully I can build on that and you know, I guess watch that tree grow."

Cardi - who also has three children with ex-husband Offset - recently insisted Stefon makes her feel "safe and very confident and very strong".

She explained on CBS Mornings: "I mean, like, two weeks ago, I was literally having a panic attack. I was, like, crying and crying and crying, just because I was just getting really nervous with you know, the whole album rollout.

"People were coming at me very hard. You know, sometimes people love you, people hate you. And people was just saying very mean things about me."


But with the NFL star, Cardi said: "He makes me feel very confident … And it makes you feel like you could take over the world."

Cardi now joked she hopes her fans will buy her new album so she can support her expanding family.

She teased: "Now y'all could buy my album so I can buy Pampers and diapers and all that type of stuff.

"I told you. Now go support my album, cause I'm a mother of four now."

The Bodak Yellow hitmaker announced she had given birth in November.

She wrote on Instagram at the time: "My life has always been a combination of different chapters and different seasons. My last chapter was the beginning of a new season. Starting over is never easy but it's been so worth it! I brought new music and a new album to the world!

"A new baby into my world, and one more reason to be the best version of me, one more reason to love me more than anything else or anyone else so I can continue giving my babies the love and life they deserve.

"This next chapter is Me vs. Me! It's me against all odds me against everything meant to get in my way. (sic)"
