Love’s not supposed to look like this—at least not in the middle of a coffee shop parking lot.
A video that hit the internet on Wednesday, May 13, caught rapper Cardi B, 33, and former football player Stefon Diggs, 32, in what looked like a heated moment outside a Burtonsville, Maryland, gym and coffee shop. In the clip, Cardi appeared visibly frustrated, gesturing emphatically with her hands while Diggs leaned against his car. A third party even stepped in, seemingly trying to de-escalate the tension. The kicker? There’s no audio, so nobody knows exactly what sparked the argument—which, naturally, sent the internet into overdrive speculating about what went wrong.
This latest flare-up comes just days after the pair looked like they were actually making it work. On Mother’s Day, Diggs wrapped his arms around Cardi’s waist at a charity event hosted by his foundation, and the two posed together for photos. According to an insider who spoke to Us Weekly, the pair had decided to give their relationship another shot after splitting earlier this year.“She is giving him a second chance but is not fully committing to him,”the source revealed, adding that they were“slowly”letting him“back in”and that“things are no longer contentious.”Apparently, contentious has made a comeback.
The rollercoaster is nothing new for these two. Cardi and Diggs first started dating after her split from Offset, and they welcomed their first baby together in November 2025. When they called it quits a few months later ahead of Super Bowl LX, a source told Us that“they are always so up and down. This isn’t the first time they have broken up.”Translation: breaking up is basically their love language at this point.
So here’s the real question hanging over this whole thing: can on-again, off-again actually work when a baby’s involved, the whole relationship is being litigated on social media, and you keep having blow-ups in parking lots? Cardi’s got three kids with Offset, 34, and Diggs has two from previous relationships. That’s a blended family dynamic that gets complicated fast. For now, it looks like round two of Cardi and Diggs might be heading toward round three—the breakup version.
