Cardi B Vows Pregnancy Won’t Halt Her Tour: “I’ll Be Doing Splits and Somersaults”
Cardi B Says Pregnancy with Stefon Diggs Won’t Halt Her 2026 Tour Plans

Cardi B stunned many fans when she announced on September 17, 2025, that she and her partner, NFL star Stefon Diggs, are expecting a child — a revelation that came just a day after she revealed ambitious touring plans.
In a post on X later that same day, posted hours after her appearance on CBS Mornings, she thanked supporters and reassured them that pregnancy won’t compromise the athleticism she intends to bring to her upcoming shows. Cardi wrote that by the time the tour rolls around she expects to be performing splits, somersaults, backflips and handstands, and that she’s following a strict regimen to deliver both a strong album and an energetic live run.
The announcement follows a separate revelation the day before, when she laid out a 30-date North American tour scheduled for 2026. Cardi also told The Jennifer Hudson Show she’s already preparing physically — hitting the gym and taking dance classes — in anticipation of the demanding schedule.
Speaking with Gayle King on ABC, Cardi confirmed the pregnancy outright: “Yes, I am [pregnant],” she told the host, adding that she and Diggs are supportive partners as they prepare to expand their family.
Cardi — who is also a parent to three children with her estranged husband Offset — is simultaneously preparing a new record. Her album Am I the Drama? is set for release on Friday, September 19, 2025.
The rapper’s full X post is embedded below.
