Social media is abuzz with rumors of a possible romance between American rapper Cardi B and Nigerian soccer player Maduka Okoye. The chatter began following their appearance together at Paris Fashion Week.
Video footage showed Okoye assisting the performer to her seat beside him and offering her a hand fan for comfort. Additional clips depicted the two chatting on a balcony, where Cardi B appeared to be in high spirits. These interactions have led many to suggest a budding relationship.
According to DAILY POST, this follows the rapper’s separation from former partner Stefon Diggs approximately five months ago. Cardi B confirmed that breakup in February 2026, citing infidelity. The pair had welcomed their child in November 2025, which occurred shortly after her divorce from musician Offset, also attributed to claims of unfaithfulness.
