The children of American music mogul, Sean “Diddy” Combs have broken their silence after their father was charged with sex trafficking and racketeering.
Diddy’s children, who did not address the charges against him, focused on dispelling “horrific conspiracy theories” surrounding their late mother, Kim Porter.
In a joint statement, Christian, 26, and twins Jessie and D’Lila, 17, expressed their outrage over the false rumors about Porter, who was in a long-term relationship with Diddy from 1994 to 2007.
Porter passed away in 2018 at age 47 from pneumonia. She also had an older son, Quincy, 33, with singer Al B. Sure!, whom Diddy had adopted.
The rumors have been fueled by a recently published memoir titled *KIM’S LOST WORDS: A Journey for Justice, From the Other Side*, which claims to be based on Porter’s writings. The book has led to speculation about Diddy’s sex tapes and Porter’s death.
The Combs children responded on Instagram, rejecting the book’s claims and asking for respect for their mother.
They clarified that Porter never wrote a book and said anyone claiming to have a manuscript is misrepresenting her.
Diddy’s children also stated that any so-called friends speaking on their mother’s behalf are not genuine.
“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,” the statement said.
“Claims that our mom wrote a book are simply untrue. She did not, and anyone claiming to have a manuscript is misrepresenting themselves.
“Additionally, please understand that any so-called ‘friend’ speaking on behalf of our mom or her family is not a friend, nor do they have her best interests at heart.”
Their statement also appeared to address Al B. Sure!’s calls for an investigation into Porter’s death, reiterating that her passing was caused by natural reasons and there was no foul play involved.
The children expressed deep sadness over how their mother’s death has been turned into a public spectacle, asking that people honor her memory without being influenced by false theories.
Porter’s children said: “Our lives were shattered when we lost our mother. She was our world, and nothing has been the same since she passed. 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. Grief is a lifelong process, and we ask that everyone respect our request for peace as we continue to cope with her loss every day.”
“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.
“We ask that everyone please respect our mother, Kim Porter, and hold her legacy in high regard so that she may rest in peace. It’s what she deserves. We love you and miss you Mommy. Quincy, Christian, Jessie & D’Lila.”
