Cardi B’s Boyfriend Stefon Diggs Caught in Explosive Legal Battle with Ex Who Claims He Gave Her a Concussion
NFL star Stefon Diggs, now famously dating Cardi B, is back in the headlines—this time for all the wrong reasons. His ex-girlfriend Mulan Hernandez, known from Basketball Wives Orlando, has filed a shocking lawsuit claiming he punched her in the head and tried to silence her with an NDA.
The drama reads like something straight out of a reality show—only this one’s unfolding in a Texas courtroom.
Mulan Strikes Back with Shocking Allegations
Court records reveal Hernandez filed a counterclaim in April, accusing Diggs of assault during a fiery argument on June 7, 2024. She says the NFL receiver hit her from behind with a closed fist, causing a concussion.
According to her, Diggs panicked after the incident. She claims he tried to cover it up. He flew his personal assistant to Houston. His assistant was meant to push her into signing a non-disclosure agreement. She refused—and took her story to court instead.
Now she’s demanding between $250,000 and $1 million in damages, insisting she won’t back down.
“He assaulted me from behind, and I ended up concussed,” Hernandez said earlier this year. “I will not be intimidated or silenced.”
Diggs Says She’s the Violent One
But Diggs tells a very different story. In February 2025, he filed a lawsuit against Hernandez, accusing her of assault. He said she showed up at his home intoxicated, stormed into his gaming room, and destroyed his belongings.
According to his version, Mulan smashed a $130,000 watch, wrecked his gaming console, and threw his phone in the toilet. He claimed she also punched him in the chest, screamed “I’m not going anywhere,” and even threatened his football career by shouting, “You won’t be playing this year!”
Diggs alleged she later tried to extort him, teaming up with her friend Brianna Mack.
Two Stories, One Explosive Night
Both agree that something chaotic happened on June 7, 2024—but that’s where the similarities end.
- Mulan’s version: Diggs hit her and tried to hide it.
- Diggs’ version: Mulan attacked him and trashed his home.
- Mulan says: He used his fame to silence her.
- Diggs says: She used drama to ruin him.
It’s a bitter he-said, she-said battle playing out under the full glare of celebrity attention.
Mulan Goes Public
After Diggs filed his suit in February, Hernandez immediately fired back online. She accused him of twisting the truth to protect his image and called his lawsuit a “smokescreen.”
“This is his attempt to get ahead of the truth,” she wrote. “He hit me. He’s just trying to rewrite the story.”
The post went viral, with fans divided over who to believe.
Cardi B Steps Into the Spotlight
Just as the court documents surfaced, Diggs made his new romance official. In May 2025, he and Cardi B went public—and not long after, she announced she was pregnant with his child.
The internet exploded. Some fans celebrated the new couple. Others warned Cardi to “stay away from the drama.”
Now, with Mulan’s lawsuit back in the headlines, Cardi finds herself caught in the middle of her boyfriend’s off-field chaos.
NFL Career at Risk
At 31, Stefon Diggs has built a superstar reputation. He signed a three-year, $69 million deal with the New England Patriots in March 2025. He even led the team to a thrilling 23–20 win over his old team. They played against the Buffalo Bills just days before the lawsuit hit the news.
But the NFL doesn’t ignore off-field scandals—especially those involving violence. League insiders say this case could trigger an internal review, and any suspension could cost him millions.
What Happens Next in Court
The Texas court has listed the case as active, and both sides are digging in for a legal showdown. Lawyers expect:
- Discovery requests for texts, medical reports, and witness statements
- A possible NFL investigation if new evidence surfaces
- Settlement talks if the case gets too damaging for either side
Both claim to be the victim, and neither shows signs of backing down.
Social Media Divides Over the Scandal
Fans are clashing online over who’s telling the truth.
“If Mulan’s telling the truth, that’s disgusting,” one user posted on X.
“He’s innocent until proven guilty,” another replied.
“Cardi B doesn’t need this mess,” a fan wrote. “She just started a family with him!”
The drama now lives both in court filings and trending hashtags.
The Fallout Could Be Massive
The scandal threatens to hit every corner of Diggs’ life—his career, his relationship, and his reputation. Hernandez says she just wants accountability. Diggs says he’s being framed.
As the story unfolds, insiders expect more details to surface about that night in Houston. Until then, both stars remain locked in a legal standoff that’s growing uglier by the day.
“The truth will come out,” Hernandez said. “I’m not afraid anymore.”
Quote of the Week:
“I will not be silenced,” Mulan said. “Not by fame. Not by fear.”
