Diddy’s legal battles and accusations of worrisome behavior continue, whether from unrelated artists or people close in the Bad Boy circle. This latest claim comes from the latter camp, specifically former label artist Mark Curry, who alleged that the record mogul broke Kim Porter’s nose once while they were together. Not only that, but these were claims that previously emerged in Sean Combs’ former bodyguard Gene Deal’s interview with The Art Of Dialogue, who asked Curry about it in the first place. In addition, his former signee claimed that he also wiretapped Porter’s phone, which was another bad sign of controlling behavior and rampant jealousy.
“Busted her nose, man,” Mark Curry said of Diddy and Kim Porter. “It was all insecurities. Anytime a man would go out of his way to wiretap someone’s phone or put taps in their home just to monitor their conversations, that’s a sign of insanity. So, when you see someone doing that, you can imagine everything else they do. What do you think he’s gon’ do if he found her on the phone talking to someone or feels that she’s cheating on him with somebody sleeping with his girl? What you think he’s gon’ say? ‘I caught you. I heard this.’ Nah, he gonna come in– it’s gonna be a fight.
Mark Curry Claims Kim Porter Got A Broken Nose From Diddy: Watch
“I think he’s very capable of doing it,” Mark Curry added regarding the multiple lawsuits against Diddy. “It’s in his character, that’s who he is. That’s what comes with power, that’s what comes with arrogance. That’s what comes with what makes him, that’s the selfishness that makes you be like that. He’s being humbled right now. It took a long time. It takes a long time to humble an arrogant person.”
Meanwhile, other figures in Puff Daddy’s life who spoke out against him during this time either left social media altogether or haven’t found the audience and reach they probably wanted. Of course, it’s impossible to tell what’s going to captivate people and what people are going to ignore. In this case, we can only hope that this doesn’t all get swept under the rug without fair scrutiny. For more news and the latest updates on Diddy, come back to HNHH.
Diddy’s former bodyguard, Gene Deal, says that he once witnessed Kim Porter attack Diddy in self-defense. Speaking with The Art of Dialogue, Deal alleged that the since-deceased Porter slashed the Bad Boy mogul’s wrists in an attempt to protect herself from his abuse. The comments are circulating after Cassie recently filed a lawsuit against Diddy, accusing him of rape, sexual abuse, and more.
The conversation arose with Deal reacting to Diddy’s track dedicated to Porter on his new project, The Love Album: Off The Grid. “I think that’s a great thing to do, to honor the person that you said you love,” Deal said. “To honor the woman who gave you a scar on your wrist for the rest of your life that you could always look at and remember, you know what I’m saying?”

He continued: “One night, when they were at home, at Kim’s house […] he wanted to, you know, put his hands on her in the wrong way. And Kim took one of those corkscrews and ripped his wrists up and she hit an artery. And when she did that, he had to rush over to St. Luke’s Hospital.”
Gene Deal Discusses Diddy’s Relationship With Kim Porter
In Cassie’s lawsuit, she accused Diddy of several wrongdoings including rape, physical abuse, introducing her to alcohol and drugs, and more. She claimed that Diddy forced her to travel to luxury hotels across the United States where she would perform with male sex workers while he masturbated. When she attempted to leave the relationship, Diddy would allegedly threaten her career in the entertainment industry. The two have since reached a settlement. Be on the lookout for further updates on Diddy and Cassie on HotNewHipHop.
Diddy says that his late partner, Kim Porter, still visits him in his dreams. He spoke about their relationship during a recent interview with Access Hollywood, following the release of his new album, The Love Album: Off The Grid. Diddy named one of the songs on the project after Porter. She passed away from lobar pneumonia in 2018. She and Diddy shared three children together.
“I got with Babyface, and I really told him the story of me and Kim, and I showed him this picture, and I said, ‘Babyface, I know your voice will penetrate the heavens above. I need you to sing this song to Kim, and I need her to hear it so she can come and visit me in my dreams,’ and that’s the story I really told him,” Diddy shared.

He added: “And we started writing the song, and I was like, ‘I feel like I really want to make sure she gets the message’ and I call John Legend, and I was like, ‘John, I need you to sing to the heavens above’ and that’s how we got ‘Kim Porter.’ And she has come and visited me in my dreams. So I have, you know, been able to live the best of both worlds.”
In addition to working with John Legend and Babyface on his “Kim Porter” track, Diddy also brought in the likes of Busta Rhymes, Jacquees, Fabolous, Swae Lee, Summer Walker, French Montana, The Weeknd, 21 Savage, Justin Bieber, and more across the rest of the 23-song tracklist. The Love Album: Off The Grid hit streaming platforms on September 15. It’s his first solo effort since 2006’s Press Play. Be on the lookout for further updates on the project on HotNewHipHop.
As a rap luminary, Diddy officially changed his name to “Love” in May 2022. Unsurprisingly, it’s clear that this sentiment has guided much of his life. From an enduring relationship with the late Kim Porter to the likes of Jennifer Lopez and Lori Harvey, Diddy’s affinity for romance and sensuality is undeniable and now he’s found a new companion in Dana Tran, with whom he recently welcomed a baby girl named Love.

Observing her distinct Boheme-Georgia culture, Diddy was immediately captivated by Kim Porter in 1994. Intimidated by her grace and elegance, yet mesmerized by her beauty, he silently yearned for a relationship with her. Complemented with intelligence and poise, Kim was always unruffled and judicious in every situation — qualities that further enticed the Bad Boy CEO. However, despite this strong initial connection and sharing three children — Christian, D’Lila Star, and Jessie James — their romance wasn’t sustainable, as Diddy began to pursue Jennifer Lopez in 1999. The couple rekindled the romance in 2003 before splitting for good in 2007.
10. Cameron Diaz

In 2008, Cameron Diaz, one of Diddy’s rumored girlfriends, briefly ignited a whirlwind romance regarded as merely a fleeting encounter between two era-defining stars. Six years later, when Us Weekly reported on Cameron’s relationship with Benji Madden, Diddy allegedly quipped “If only I could turn back the clock”, seemingly regretful of their supposed split.

Rumors of Diddy and Miracle Watts’ relationship got a boost when the pair attended Diddy’s New Year’s Eve celebration. Seemingly confirming their romantic involvement, Watts later responded to a photo the hip-hop star shared of himself in the ocean with an affectionate comment, expressing her admiration for him by saying “GEEZ” along with love-struck emojis. Although not necessarily a confirmation, many believed that she became Diddy’s latest girlfriend.

For two decades, Misa Hylton Brim and Diddy have worked together to nurture their son Justin Combs. Additionally, Misa has acted as an adoring “second mother” to his other kids, Niko and Madison, from other relationships. Upon learning of the tragic passing of Kim Porter, Combs’ long-time partner, Hylton Brim penned a sorrowful tribute featured in PEOPLE Magazine: “I am simply unable to comprehend that you are no longer here,” she wrote with profound sadness. Unfortunately, it appears that there could be some underlying issues regarding their co-parenting relationship following Misa’s comments regarding their son’s DUI arrest.

Among Diddy girlfriends in the early 2000s, Sarah Chapman’s union with Diddy was ephemeral yet profoundly significant. As a result, it ushered in the arrival of Chance Combs. Despite their amicable separation, Sarah harbored no ill will and recently commemorated Kim Porter’s passing on Instagram, praising the late mother for her unwavering devotion to her children. “Rest assured Kim, that your young ones will be blessed with love and prayers. Your resilience shines through in your children’s unbreakable bond,” she wrote.
6. Jennifer Lopez

In 1999, Diddy and Jennifer Lopez had a tumultuous two-year relationship that made headlines. During their time together, Lopez credited Combs for being a source of mentorship. But on Valentine’s Day 2001, the couple called it quits after the drama surrounding a nightclub shooting in late ’99. Authorities arrested both of them. However, they were eventually absolved of any charges. Afterward, Lopez revealed she desired a different kind of family life than the one Diddy could provide her.
5. Lori Harvey

In July 2019, Lori Harvey and Diddy made headlines for engaging in a brief yet highly-publicized relationship. Subsequently, the couple jetted off to Italy for a family vacation, only for Lori to unfollow the rapper on social media months later due to his being photographed with another woman.
Refuting popular belief, Lori recently set the record straight in an E! interview with Adrienne Bailon, where she affirmed that neither Diddy nor his son Justin Combs ever romanced her. Furthermore, she clarified that false accounts of passionate encounters with those she’s never met have been circulated in the past, though she typically remains silent concerning such speculation.

In 2007, Cassie Ventura and Diddy began their on-again, off-again relationship that persisted for over a decade. Despite their attempts to remain discreet until 2012, the public discovered the union, though it eventually fizzled out in 2018 due to Diddy’s lack of commitment. Four years later, he paid homage to his ex at the BET Awards Lifetime Achievement ceremony, despite having released a song about trying to move on from her. After their split, Cassie married Alex Fine in 2019 and they have two children.
3. Naomi Campbell

As the 2001 British Vogue photo shoot indicated, for a brief period Diddy was linked to Naomi Campbell, widely hailed as one of the most beautiful women in the world. In 2002, rumors proliferated that their connection had developed into something more intimate. However, neither confirmed a romantic relationship. Nevertheless, the two have continued to maintain a strong friendship for nearly two decades, and have even made joint appearances on the red carpet up until 2022. Furthermore, during a holiday trip to St. Barts, Diddy sported a T-shirt with Campbell’s face on it – a testament to the palpable bond between them.

In 2019, tabloid speculation linked Gina Huynh, a model based in Los Angeles, to P. Diddy. Then, after the Billboard Awards of 2022, Gina posted a photograph on her Instagram Story which showed her receiving a kiss on the cheek from the hip-hop mogul. This romantic gesture prompted an impassioned response from Yung Miami, who was then Diddy’s partner, who wrote, “Somebody, please give this girl some attention!”

The list of Diddy Girlfriends wouldn’t have been complete without Yung Miami. On June 9, 2022, Diddy divulged to Yung Miami, the host of the podcast Caresha Please, that he was single. He detailed, “We have dates, we’re friends, and we explore exotic locations—it’s great!” However, it was reported in April 2023 that the two had elected to sever their romantic relationship but still maintain a close bond. Miami elucidated their connection, saying: “We shared an incredibly strong and intimate connection. We did it all: spending every day together, him supporting me, me supporting him.”
Diddy and King Combs both say that they will be releasing new albums in 2023. The father-and-son duo spoke about their upcoming music during a recent interview with Billboard.
As for Diddy, he remarked that he’s “dropping (new music) top of the year.”

He didn’t reveal any further information about the upcoming project. It will be his first studio album since 2006’s Press Play, and his fifth overall.
Elsewhere in their interview with Billboard, Diddy and King Combs discussed the late Kim Porter. Porter passed away back in 2018.
“She’s, like, my biggest fan,” King Combs recalled. “I’ve really been working and doing music since I was 16. Like my pops said, from the jump he wasn’t going to help me give me no producer help, writer help, because he didn’t want me to ever have to lean on him or depend on him.”
Diddy also reflected on watching King Combs build a career of his own: “I’m overwhelmed with joy because when he was like, 3 years old, for his birthday, he just wanted to be with his Daddy on tour. Before I would end the show he would break out in a tantrum and start crying unless he could get on the stage. So to see him chase his dream and to see all of the obstacles that he had to overcome without my help. And then him doing it, it’s just really mind-blowing. His mother has to be just so proud of him and I’m just so proud of him.”
The announcement for Diddy comes after the legendary artist released a collaboration with PartyNextDoor, titled “Sex in the Porsche.” The track serves as Diddy’s second single for his upcoming album. He released “Gotta Move On” featuring Bryson Tiller earlier this year.
As for King Combs, he recently released a new single with Kodak Black, “Can’t Stop Won’t Stop.”
Honoring his mother for what would have been her 52nd birthday, Quincy took to his Instagram Thursday to share how much he missed her since her 2018 death. Kim Porter passed away unexpectedly in her home with her cause of death listed as pneumonia.
Quincy, who Porter shares with singer Al B. Sure!, has often posted throwback pictures of his late mother on social media. Earlier this week, the 31-year-old shared a photo of him embracing Porter with both smiling.
“Only GOD knows how much I miss you,” the musician penned on Instagram. “Every second of every minute I’m reminded of you which is that extra push I need on a daily.”
“I know you’re up there right now sipping your tea and smokin a joint so imma go do the same… Love You Mommy,” Quincy continued, adding, “Happy birthday.”
The Brotherly Love star followed up the post with a video clip. Showcasing him and Porter dancing and laughing in front of a mirror, he wrote, “This was US anywhere anyplace anytime.”
Porter left behind four kids when she died several years ago. In addition to Quincy, the model also shared three children with Diddy: King Combs and twins Jessie and D’lila.
Offering his own tribute, the “Can’t Stop Won’t Stop” rapper also shared online, “HAPPY HEAVENLY BIRTHDAY MOMMY. I think about you and feel you with me every single day ! I Love you and miss you so much !!! #foreverkp”
Porter was discovered unresponsive in her Los Angeles home in November 2018. Shortly after her death, Diddy mourned the loss on his social media, saying at the time, “For the last three days I’ve been trying to wake up out of this nightmare. But I haven’t. I don’t know what I’m going to do without you baby. I miss you so much.”
The former couple dated on and off from 1994 until 2007, around the time Diddy became romantically linked with Cassie.
A woman claiming to be Kim Porter’s niece is suing Diddy for wrongful termination. According to TMZ, the woman claims Diddy ended her tenure after requesting to take maternity leave.
The woman’s identity is not disclosed, listed in docs as Jane Doe, but she is suing Diddy, Tri Star Sports, and more, citing she was a full-time nanny to Diddy’s twins after the November 2018 death of Porter. She said she was fired when she requested maternity leave two years later.
The woman states Diddy asked her to live at his estate, and she became responsible for the 24/7 care of the twins. The maternity leave was requested in August 2020, but Diddy was allegedly “infuriated” and terminated her job at the start of her time off. The woman stated reps for Diddy told her she was fired because she was pregnant and not married, setting a bad example.
In response, a spokesperson for Diddy told TMZ the lawsuit is a shakedown and extortion attempt while identifying the woman as Raven.
“Raven is not the niece of Kim Porter as she falsely alleges; nor is there any legal basis for this case to be filed under the anonymity as a ”Jane Doe”. Raven was a part time babysitter to the twins who Mr Combs kept on the job back in 2018 to provide continuity for the twins following the untimely death of their mother. Mr. Combs graciously permitted Raven to live in his home with her son and treated them like ‘family’.
Her babysitting services were always intended to be temporary especially since the girls were getting older and spending most of the day at school. In fact, Raven’s transition out of her role was planned and agreed to by her long before she even mentioned that she was pregnant. Mr. Combs will take swift and immediate action to protect his family against these false claims.”
A strange report has emerged this week and it shows that Sean “Diddy” Combs is being targeted in a lawsuit. This isn’t just any bit of litigation; the person taking to Diddy to court is only known by “Jane Roe” in documents, stated TMZ, but in a follow-up, a “source” claimed the woman wasn’t telling the truth.
Today (September 27), the outlet reported that Roe alleged she is a relative of Kim Porter‘s who worked for the mogul as a live-in nanny.

Porter, who unexpectedly passed away in November 2018, was Diddy’s ex and mother to three of his children. Roe—who stated that she is the late mom of four’s niece—suggested that the day after Porter passed, Diddy asked her if she could move in and become a full-time, around-the-clock nanny to his twin daughters, D’Lila and Jessie James.
It was in August 2020, nearly two years after Porter’s death, that Roe claimed she told Diddy she was pregnant and asked for maternity leave. When the time came for her to temporarily leave her position, Roe alleged that Diddy was angered and fired her. She claimed that because she was with child but unmarried, he said it “set a bad example” for his kids.
After their story went viral, TMZ returned to say that a “source” told them the woman was not Porter’s niece, nor was she terminated because she was expecting.
