Cardi B Has Newborn’s Umbilical Cord Turned Into Gold Heart Keepsake

The placenta-encapsulation company behind the piece publicly documented the heart-shaped, gold-chrome process on Instagram.

Overview

  • Mommy Made Encapsulation shaped the cord with wire, dehydrated it, dyed it blue for processing, and finished it with a gold chrome coating in a graphic video.
  • The keepsake is listed as a $50 add-on to the company’s $500 placenta encapsulation service, which Page Six and others report Cardi B also used.
  • The provider says it has processed more than 40,000 placentas and touts prior celebrity clients, with records showing it worked with Cardi in 2024.
  • TMZ reports Stefon Diggs cut the cord at the November 4 birth, which is Cardi B’s fourth child and her first with the New England Patriots wide receiver.
  • Social media reaction remains split, with some praising the sentimental value and others expressing discomfort at the procedure shown online.
