Stefon Diggs has been wrapped up in a legal battle with Instagram model Aileen Lopera for several months. Now, however, it looks like that battle has finally come to an end. In December of 2024, Lopera filed a lawsuit against the athlete, alleging that he is the father of her daughter. She asked for sole legal and physical custody of the child. She also wanted him to cover child support, pregnancy expenses, and legal fees.
In November, Lopera's attorney confirmed that a DNA test had been conducted and that it proved Diggs was the child's father after all. Now, Us Weekly exclusively reports that Lopera has dropped the lawsuit. "The matter has been resolved," her attorney, Tamar G. Arminak, told the outlet.
News of Diggs' paternity arrived just a couple of months after his girlfriend, Cardi B, gave birth to their first child together. The two of them still appear to be in a relationship despite the ordeal.
Stefon Diggs Assault Allegations
Diggs' legal battle with Lopera may have come to an end, but he still has another case to worry about. Last month, it was reported that he's facing charges of strangulation or suffocation and misdemeanor assault and battery.
His former private chef alleges that he attacked her over a salary dispute earlier that month. David Meier, Diggs's attorney, was quick to deny the allegations on his client's behalf. "The timing and motivation for making the allegations is crystal clear: they are the direct result of an employee-employer financial dispute that was not resolved to the employee's satisfaction," he said.
"Stefon looks forward to establishing the truth in a court of law," Meier continued, adding that the allegations are "unsubstantiated, uncorroborated, and were never investigated -- because they did not occur."
