Stefon Diggs assault case: what we know about the private chef alleging she was slapped and strangled over pay

Stefon Diggs, wide receiver for the New England Patriots, is facing serious legal allegations involving a woman who worked as his personal chef. According to court documents and police reports, the chef has accused Diggs of hitting and choking her during a dispute over unpaid wages. The identity has not been publicly released, and details about the incident remain limited as the case moves through the courts.The woman is described in legal filings as Diggs’ personal or private chef. She reportedly began working for Diggs around July 2025, continuing through the NFL season. Court documents refer to her only as “the woman” or “the victim,” and no reliable source has yet published her name. Any speculation on her identity is unverified.According to court filings, the dispute started when the chef asked Diggs for money she said he owed her. The documents claim that during the argument, Diggs allegedly slapped her and wrapped his arm around her neck, making it hard for her to breathe before letting go. The filings also mention text messages between Diggs and the woman about the unpaid wages. These are allegations at this stage and have not been proven in court.Following the report, Diggs was charged with felony strangulation or suffocation and a misdemeanor assault and battery charge. He is expected to be arraigned in the coming weeks, and the case remains active. Being charged does not mean he is guilty, and the legal process will determine the outcome.Courts often protect the privacy of alleged victims in assault and harassment cases. That is why her name has not been released. Media reports consistently refer to her only as the “private chef” or “the woman,” and her personal details are being kept confidential.So far, public information about the private chef is limited to her role, the allegations in court documents, and the ongoing legal process. The case is still unfolding, and further details are expected as Diggs appears in court and the legal proceedings continue.Also read - Stefon Diggs denies serious charges as his attorney speaks out, says allegations “did not occur”
