Stefon Diggs’ alleged assault victim speaks publicly for first time

Mila Adams responds to Stefon Diggs case, denies settlement talks, says focus is on healing and integrity

Mila Adams, the personal chef who accused NFL star Stefon Diggs of choking her following a Patriots game in December 2025, has spoken publicly amid the ongoing legal proceedings. 

Her statement came shortly after Diggs entered a not-guilty plea during his first court appearance in Boston on February 13, 2026.

Adams emphasized that she “would never make false claims for personal gain or to damage someone's reputation” and stressed that she reported the matter through proper legal channels. She also called on the public to avoid spreading misinformation or engaging in personal attacks on social media, noting that this is an active criminal case.

“My focus is on healing, my work, and moving forward with integrity,” Adams wrote. “I trust the legal process to address the facts, and I hope anyone following this matter will do the same.”

The chef also addressed circulating claims that she was engaged in settlement discussions with Diggs, firmly denying them. “I have never sought money nor engaged in settlement discussions to settle this matter; statements suggesting otherwise are harmful and untrue,” she stated.

Stefon Diggs, 32, was formally charged on December 29, 2025, following allegations that he slapped and choked Adams over a salary dispute. Diggs’ attorney, Mitchell Schuster, told reporters that they are confident the allegations will be proven false once all evidence is reviewed. “We’re confident that after the facts and evidence are reviewed in this case, he will be completely exonerated,” Schuster said.

Diggs is scheduled to return to court on April 1, 2026, as the case continues to unfold. The public and media are closely watching the proceedings, with both parties emphasizing the importance of the legal process in determining the outcome.
