Cardi B’s close friend Ken Barbie has questioned why the rapper and her newborn son didn’t spend Christmas with boyfriend Stefon Diggs.
The blogger, whose real name is Ken Davis, addressed the speculation online, saying that both Cardi and Diggs are dealing with the dynamics of blended families.
“Cardi has her own kids, so does Stefon,” he wrote, referencing Cardi’s three children, including Kulture, 7, Wave, 4, and Blossom, 1, and Diggs’ children with multiple women.
Ken added that the boundaries of co-parenting are not always clear and take time, especially for a relatively new couple.
Ken also responded to the renewed attention surrounding Diggs welcoming multiple children within a short period of time, saying the information wasn’t new and wondering why people were suddenly shocked.
He said Diggs’ choice to spend the holidays with his children should not be seen as controversial. The friend explained that Cardi would never support a partner who didn’t show up for his children.
On Christmas Day, Diggs shared photos of himself celebrating the holiday with some of his children, including newborns and a toddler daughter.
The NFL star later reposted a photo of Cardi holding their son, who was born last month, leading to confirmation that they spent the holidays separately.
Cardi and Diggs first sparked romance rumors in February and went public in June.
