American rapper, Cardi B caused a scene outside court on Tuesday after a reporter asked her about a possible pregnancy with Stefon Diggs.

Naijaonpoint reports that the Yoga crooner is facing a $24 million civil lawsuit from her former bodyguard who accused her of assault.

She appeared to have a baby bump as she left the courthouse.

While signing an autograph for a fan, Cardi B reacted angrily when a reporter questioned her about rumours of expecting another child with Offset and hinted at paternity issues with Diggs.

She threw a pen toward the reporter and demanded to be treated with respect.

Her bodyguard quickly intervened, guiding her away from the crowd.

The reporter asked: “Insiders are claiming that Offset is publicly bragging about getting you pregnant for the fourth time. Do you foresee any paternity issues with Stefon Diggs?”

She replied: “Stop disrespecting me. “Do not disrespect me.”

“I still love you even though you just threw some stuff at me,” the reporter responded.

She replied: “I don’t care. You’re disrespectful, don’t do that. Do you see women asking those type of questions to me? Why do you feel, as a man, you get to ask me those type of questions? Act like you have some manners. And your mama taught you: respect women.”

The incident has fueled speculation among fans after Cardi’s earlier court appearance on August 28, where she wore a loose suit and held her stomach, leaving many to wonder if she is expecting her first child with Diggs.

Despite the confrontation, she still took time to sign autographs before leaving in an SUV with her bodyguard’s assistance.
