Just days after claims that NFL star Stefon Diggs assaulted her, his former personal chef was seen in a video enjoying herself, dancing, and laughing at a colleague’s home. This footage was presented at the conclusion of the trial.
Jamila Adams, who served as Diggs’ live-in chef at his mansion in Massachusetts, sought refuge at the home of her coworker, Xi Charles, for a week following the alleged incident.
The video, recorded by Natalia “Tally” Moses, the final witness in the two-day trial, was shown to jurors just hours before Diggs was found not guilty of the charges.
“We were just having fun in Xi’s room, playing music and dancing,” Moses explained during her testimony.
The brief clip shows Adams moving rhythmically to the music playing on the television, as her friends chuckled and joined in the lighthearted moment.
Moses admitted that Adams’ behavior at the time didn’t align with her claims surrounding the purported attack.
Prosecutor Drew Virtue noted that Adams didn’t share the allegations with anyone in Diggs’ circle because of how much they relied on his good graces—fiscally and personally.
“[Diggs] was a sometimes lover, boss, landlord, athlete, celebrity, financially powerful, surrounded by people who were all on his payroll and who liked him. Her behavior does make sense,” Virtue said.
Charles, who Adams stayed with for a week after the alleged assault, was employed as Diggs’ hairdresser.
Virtue, too, admitted that Adams wasn’t the “perfect witness,” in part because of her “complicated” relationship with Diggs, but said that didn’t mean “you should throw away everything she said.”
Meanwhile, Diggs’ lawyer, Andrew Kettlewell, said the prosecution’s whole case relied on Adams’ word and was moot otherwise.
When Adams took the stand on Monday, she cried while testifying that Diggs allegedly slapped her “with an open hand” and choked her at his home on Dec. 2, 2025.
The day of the purported attack, Adams said that she texted Diggs from her bedroom in his house about how she was upset he wasn’t taking her to Miami for the Art Basel expo, even though she had been planning to coordinate outfits with Diggs’ girlfriend Cardi B.
“What was all that s–t you was talking?” Adams recounted Diggs asking before he allegedly smacked her.
“He took his arm and he came around my neck with his elbow … and he began to choke me,” she said through tears.
Adams worked for Diggs from July through December 2025, making $2,000 a week.
She claimed that she and Diggs had a sexual relationship before he hired her.
Three weeks ahead of the trial, Adams’ lawyer may have demanded $5.5 million from Diggs, but she dodged all inquiries relating to the purproted payout.
Diggs pleaded not guilty and was acquitted on Tuesday afternoon.
He faced up to five years in prison on the strangulation charge and two-and-a-half years in jail for misdemeanor assault.
