Cardi B, soccer star Maduka Okoye set tongues wagging with Paris Fashion Week flirt fest

Cardi B fans are shipping the rapper with Nigerian soccer star Maduka Okoye after the duo’s Paris Fashion Week flirt fest.

The duo was first seen sitting side by side at the Jean Paul Gaultier Haute Couture show on Wednesday.

The rapper, 33, was wearing a show-stopping zebra bodysuit with platform black boots.

The athlete — who has been in an on-again, off-again relationship with Dutch model Jelicia Westhoff since late 2021 — sported a mint green vest, matching pants and a white tank to the event.

After he held Cardi’s hand to help her to her seat, TikTok users gushed over the pair “look[ing] good together.”

Later, the two were spotted in the middle of a flirtatious exchange on a Parisian restaurant’s terrace.

Cardi and Okoye, 26, were all smiles while chatting in a viral clip, before the Grammy winner was seen laughing.

“Maduka is really making Cardi B blush out here,” one fan tweeted, with another claiming the songwriter “look[ed] like she [was] having butterflies.”

Others, however, poked fun at social media going into “meltdown mode” over the pair’s interactions.

Cardi’s rep did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.

The “Bodak Yellow” hitmaker’s last public relationship was with another athlete — NFL player Stefon Diggs.

The on-again, off-again couple debuted their romance in May 2025 on the heels of Cardi and estranged husband Offset’s split.

The American Music Award winner announced four months later that she was pregnant with baby No. 3, her first child with Diggs.

The little one, now 8 months, was born in November 2025, and his name has yet to be revealed.

Cardi and Diggs, 32, broke up earlier this year, only to pack on the PDA while celebrating Mother’s Day — and then have a heated coffee shop clash caught on camera in May.

The current status of their romance remains unclear.

As for Okoye and Westhoff, they share a son named Isaiah.
