Assault allegations against NFL star Stefon Diggs have resurfaced in the public conversation after his recent acquittal. Jamila Adams, his former chef, is speaking out about what she describes as troubling patterns of behavior—and she’s not holding back.
In a powerful video that’s been circulating online, Adams shares a message directed at another woman connected to Diggs, recounting experiences that sound deeply painful. She references assault allegations with specificity that suggests real documentation and shared experiences between the women involved.
“The way he treated you when you were pregnant, the way he talked to you when you were pregnant… I will never understand,” Adams says in the video. She goes deeper, mentioning moments during the delivery room and after the baby’s birth—moments that paint a picture of behavior she characterizes as abusive.
What’s striking is that Adams and this other woman apparently exchanged messages documenting Diggs’ alleged behavior over time. While she keeps those details private out of respect, she does something else: she calls out Cardi B, suggesting the rapper witnessed this behavior firsthand. “That’s not my story to tell,” Adams says before offering a direct apology to the woman she’s protecting.
The legal side of this is interesting too. Diggs faced felony strangulation and misdemeanor assault and battery charges connected to Adams’ claims after an alleged altercation at his home. He was acquitted, with his legal team arguing there wasn’t enough physical evidence and that deleted text messages created inconsistencies in the narrative. It’s a familiar pattern in these cases—one that speaks to larger conversations about documentation, credibility, and whose stories get believed.
What’s really worth noting here is Adams’ resilience in continuing to speak her truth even after the legal outcome didn’t go her way. That kind of vulnerability takes real courage, especially when you’re standing beside another woman who experienced similar pain.
Meanwhile, reports suggest Cardi B recently decided to give Diggs another chance because he was “willing to put the work in.” That detail alone opens up bigger questions about accountability, redemption, and what it really means to do the work.
