Sean 'Diddy' Combs' faces six new sexual abuse lawsuits

Music mogul Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs has made a surprise post on social media from behind bars as he awaits trial on sex trafficking charges.

The controversial rapper marked the second birthday of his toddler daughter, Love, who she shares with ex-lover Dana Tran.

Sharing photos of the child taking part in a cake smash celebration, Combs wrote: ‘Happy Birthday to you! Happy Birthday to you!

“Happy Birthday baby Love! Happy Birthday to you!! Happy Birthday @loveseancombs daddy loves you.”

The star is currently being held at Brooklyn's ’s Metropolitan Detention Centre in New York.

The post comes a day after Combs was hit with a string of horrific new sexual assault allegations as two women and four men filed lawsuits.

They follow more than a dozen other claims filed in recent weeks, with over 100 alleged victims accusing the Harlem-born rapper, once famed for his lavish A-list parties, of sex trafficking, sexual assault and racketeering.

According to the new filing by lawyer Tony Buzbee, “Combs would tell victims, ‘this is what it takes to be famous, what are you willing to do to become a star?’”

The new lawsuits include an unnamed John Doe who claims he was “brutally” raped by Diddy in an Ecko clothing stockroom at the flagship Macy’s department store in New York.

Another of the John Does claimed Diddy groped him when he was just 16 at a White Party held by the rapper in the Hamptons in 1998, The Sun reports.

John Doe was 16 and living in New York City when he received a highly sought after invitation to party, the filing said.

“When he received the invitation, he felt like he finally had the opportunity to rub shoulders with the who’s who of the industry. He thought it could be his chance to break into the music industry,” the court filing read.

The young boy “unexpectedly bumped into Combs” as he was heading to the bathroom, the filing stated.

“Shocked, John Doe found himself face to face with Combs, a titan in the music industry, standing right in front of him at his own party.”

A picture shared in the court filing, showing Combs with his arm around the teen, was allegedly taken at the moment of the meeting.

The filing alleged that Combs took the teen to a private area and ordered him to drop his pants, which the teen did “out of fear, anxiety and the imbalanced power dynamic between himself and Combs”.

The filing alleged that Combs then sexually assaulted the teen “for an extended period of time”.

Comb’s trial date for the criminal charges of sex trafficking and racketeering has been set for May 5 in 2025.

The star has pleaded not guilty to the charges with his lawyer addressing previous claims.

Attorney Marc Agnifilo said the rapper “cannot address every meritless allegation in what has become a reckless media circus.”
