Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ children are backing their father up amid sex trafficking and abuse allegations that have shaken up the entertainment industry.
They took to social media to condemn conspiracy theories and declare support for their dad in the second statement since his arrest.
Quincy Taylor Brown (Diddy’s adopted son), Chance Combs, Justin Dior Combs, Christian Combs, Jessie Combs and D’Lila Combs jointly wrote: “The past month has devastated our family. Many have judged both him and us based on accusations, conspiracy theories, and false narratives that have spiraled into absurdity on social media.”
“We stand united, supporting you every step of the way. We hold onto the truth, knowing it will prevail, and nothing will break the strength of our family. We miss you and love you dad.”
Diddy’s children first spoke out about his ongoing legal trouble and the buzz surrounding the situation in a statement released on September 25.
At the time, they slammed “hurtful and false rumours” about their parents’ relationship, while maintaining a united front.
They denied reports that their mother wrote a book, Kim’s Lost Words: A Journey for Justice from the Other Side, a purported memoir that was published days before Diddy’s arrest.
“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.”
The Combs kids added: “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.”
The post comes a day after seven new lawsuits were filed against Sean Combs, including two from accusers who claim they were minors at the time they were allegedly drugged and assaulted by him, per CNN.
“More than two dozen suits have been filed against Combs, who is currently in federal custody as he awaits trial on his indictment in the Southern District of New York on counts of racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking and transportation to engage in prostitution. He has pleaded not guilty.”
