Stefon Diggs Faces Paternity Lawsuit From Instagram Model Aileen Lopera

NFL star Stefon Diggs is currently in the spotlight for personal reasons after being hit with a paternity lawsuit filed by model/influencer Aileen Lopera, better known as Lord Gisselle on social media. The case adds complexity to Diggs’ already public life, which includes his relationship with Cardi B and recent announcement that she is pregnant with his child. 

What the Lawsuit Says

• Lopera filed her petition in December 2024, while still pregnant, to officially establish a parental relationship with Diggs.  
• Her daughter, named Charliee Harper Diggs‑Lopera, was born in April 2025.  
• In her filing, Lopera requested legal and physical custody of the child, with Stefon Diggs granted visitation rights, pending the determination of paternity. She also asked that Diggs cover expenses related to pregnancy, birth, and legal fees.  

Stefon Diggs’ Response

• Diggs has publicly contested the paternity claim, stating that he is not certain the child is his. He has requested a DNA test to resolve the matter.  
• If the test confirms he is the father, Diggs is seeking joint legal and physical custody and a split of responsibility for pregnancy/birth expenses as well as attorneys’ fees.  

Context & Public Reactions

• The lawsuit comes at a time when Diggs and Cardi B have also announced they are expecting a baby together, which further intensifies media scrutiny around his personal life.  
• Diggs is already a father; he has an 8‑year‑old daughter named Nova from a previous relationship.  
• Social media has been active with reactions—some calling for David to honor his responsibilities, others emphasizing the need for the DNA test to clarify matters.  

What to Watch For

1. The results of the DNA test and whether custody arrangements will be determined through the courts.
2. How this lawsuit may impact Diggs’ public perception, especially with the pregnancy announcement involving Cardi B.
3. Whether Diggs will be required to make financial reimbursements (pregnancy, birth, legal fees) depending on the outcome.
4. Any statement from Diggs himself beyond the legal filings—especially addressing the public or media directly.
