Stefon Diggs' Ex Aileen Lopera Files Motion to Dismiss Paternity Lawsuit

After claiming that a paternity test confirmed Diggs was the father of her child, Lopera filed documents requesting the case to be dismissed without prejudice.

Stefon Diggs’ ex-girlfriend, Alieen Lopera, is seeking to dismiss her paternity and child support lawsuit against the New England Patriots wide receiver.

As reported by TMZ, Lopera filed documents this week to dismiss the lawsuit, which she initially filed in December 2024. In the lawsuit, she alleged that her then-unborn daughter, Charliee Harper Diggs-Lopera, was Diggs’ child.

Lopera's attorney, Tamar G. Arminak, told US Weekly, “The matter has been resolved.”

Diggs responded to the lawsuit in July 2025 and said that he wasn’t sure he was the father of the child and requested a paternity test. He said that if the test determined he was the father, he would want joint custody and “joint payment of reasonable expenses of pregnancy and birth and attorney’s fees and costs.”

As reported by Page Six in November, Arminak alleged the paternity test confirmed Diggs was the father.

“The paternity has been confirmed, Mr. Diggs is the father of the child,” Arminak said. “Now that the child’s paternity has been established and Mr. Diggs has acknowledged his daughter, my client hopes they can work toward being great parents to their child.”

In her initial filing, Lopera requested sole legal and physical custody of her daughter but permitted Diggs visitation rights. She also asked for him to pay her child support and any expenses associated with her pregnancy.

Shortly after Lopera's legal counsel said the paternity test confirmed he was the father, Diggs welcomed his first child with Cardi B.

Earlier this week, Diggs called Cardi “an amazing supporter” and said he's thankful that she's enthusiastic about football.

"She wasn’t a football girl before I converted her over," Diggs said. "But, I’m just thankful to have her in my corner. She’s an amazing woman. And continue to build that relationship."
