SEAN ‘Diddy’ Combs’ children have broken their silence after his sex crimes arrest but haven’t defended their dad from the accusations against him.
Quincy Brown and Christian, Jessie and D’Lila Combs instead released a statement slamming the “horrific conspiracy theories” against their late mother Kim Porter.
The 54-year-old music producer behind many iconic ’90s hits was denied bail by a second judge and remains in jail following his arrest last Monday evening at a Manhattan hotel.
Last Tuesday, he pleaded not guilty to all the charges against him, which include racketeering, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution.
He is currently being held in the infamous Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, New York, which formerly housed fellow disgraced musician R. Kelly and Ghislaine Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein’s right hand.
On Tuesday night, the disgraced hip-hop mogul’s children took to Instagram to defend their late mom, who tragically died from pneumonia in 2018 aged just 47.

They wrote: “We have seen so many hurtful and false rumors circulating about our parents, Kim Porter and Sean Combs’ relationship, as well as about our mom’s tragic passing, that we feel the need to speak out.”
Former model Porter dated Combs on and off from 1994 to 2007.
They had three children together: 26-year-old Christian, and twin daughters Jessie and D’Lila, 17.
Porter had her first child, son Quincy, 33, with her former husband singer Al B, who Combs later adopted when he was just three years old.
The siblings’ declaration comes after the release of a memoir riddled with typos allegedly written by Porter prior to her death.
The children slammed the 60-page book, titled Kim’s Lost Words, which purports to be an assortment of Porter’s diaries.
The memoir allegedly gives a glimpse into Combs’ love life from the 1990s to Porter’s final year.
It includes alleged philandering with both male and female rappers and top musicians as well as debauched orgies at his house that Porter participated in.
It has also caused social media to swirl with suspicions and conspiracies about Porter’s untimely death.
But the kids were quick to shut the rumours down, writing: “Claims that our mom wrote a book are simply untrue. She did not. And anyone claiming to have a manuscript is mispresenting themselves.
“While it has been incredibly difficult to reconcile how she could be taken from us too soon. The cause of her death has long been established. There was no foul play.”
They continued: “We are deeply saddened that the world has made a spectacle of what has been the most tragic event of our lives.
“Our mother should be remembered for the beautiful, strong, kind, and loving woman she was. Her memory should not be tainted by horrific conspiracy theories.”
The children did not comment on the charges Combs is currently facing as he sits in jail.
The disgraced rapper is said to not be eating in prison as he fears that he will be poisoned, reports claim.
He is is sharing a cell in a New York jail with crypto fraudster Sam Bankman-Fried following his arrest last week.
NewsNation reports that a former prisoner in Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center said the entertainer may be refusing to eat due to paranoia.
Larry Levine said: “Imagine if someone paid someone off on the inside to poison his food, give him a heart attack and he dies.
“If somebody got to one of the correctional officers, and this could happen. They don’t make a lot of money and there’s people out there that he’s got stuff on that do have a lot of money.”
Combs and his bodyguard are also being accused of allegedly drugging and raping a woman and filming the brutal attack to sell as porn.
Thalia Graves has now filed a lawsuit against the music mogul accusing him of sexual and physical abuse in 2001.
She alleges Diddy and Joseph Sherman, his former head of security, bound her and then violently raped after her after she was knocked out by a drugged glass of wine.
In her complaint, Graves claims the brutal attack happened at the star’s recording studio in New York.
Sherman has since issued a statement denying the accusations and says he had never met Ms Graves.
He described the lawsuit as a “money grab”.
