The couple reportedly started dating earlier this year after their first public appearance together during a New York Knicks Game in May. The couple confirmed their relationship on Instagram in June.

Although Stefon Diggs and Cardi B went Instagram official in June, a month later, breakup rumors started to swirl after the American rapper deleted Diggs' pictures from her social media accounts.

Cardi B praised boyfriend Stefon Diggs for his support

However, the Grammy Award winner has put those rumors to bed with her latest announcement. Cardi B shared the space she is in her relationship with Diggs.

"Me and my man, we're very supportive of each other. We're like in the same space in our careers," Cardi B said. "I feel like we're really great and one of the best at what we do. And me and him think the same way.

The 31-year-old rapper also praised the Patriots wide receiver for making her feel "strong and confident."

"He just makes me feel safe and very confident and very strong,' Cardi B said. "Two weeks ago, I was literally having a panic attack. I was like crying and crying and crying, just because I was getting really nervous with the whole album rollout. "I was like, 'See, this is why I don't put music out?' This is my art and something I put a lot of time to and it's just like sometimes, when people just rip it apart, it just hurts you and it crushes you And he was just like, 'Girl, you better get it together.' ... I feel like feeling safe, feeling confident, it makes you feel like you can take over the world."

Diggs is 1-1 with the Patriots after the team bounced back in the Week 2 clash for a 33-27 win against the Miami Dolphins. He is coming off an ACL tear that ended his 2024 season in Week 8.

Although having started out professionally as a cricket writer in 2022, Chaitanya's curiosity and indiscriminate interest in all sports in general eventually introduced him to America's favorite pastime.

While Chaitanya's favorite player from the current crop is the dynamic Venezuelan Ronald Acuna Jr., his all-time favorite, however, is Pedro Martinez, for his self-belief and consistency. He also rates Jose Bautista's iconic bat flip in 2015 as his favorite moment in baseball history.

Chaitanya specializes in reporting on technical aspects of the game or analyzing patterns behind specific plays. He also likes pondering over players' self-assessments following the conclusion of a game as it helps him get an idea of how they think about the sport in general.

When not cheering for his favorites across sports, Chaitanya likes being transported to the past through a good war documentary or a historical documentary in general.
