What Diddy Told His Kids and Mom at the Time of Sentencing
When he was sentenced on October 3, Sean “Diddy” Combs in a tearful manner, emotionally communicated to his family for the charges related to transportation for prostitution. Eminem, in his nervous and teary monologue, went to his seven kids – Quincey Taylor Brown, 34; Justin Combs, 31; Christian “King” Combs, 27; twins D’Lila and Jessie Combs, 18; Chance Combs, 18; and Love Combs, 2.. He was sentenced by the court to 50 months imprisonment, five years of supervised release, and a $500,000 fine. He spoke about the need to be forgiven by them first: “To my seven children, I am so sorry and I apologize to you,” he said and then addressed his mother, Janice Combs. “Mother, you taught me better. You brought me up better,” he added, according to the report by NBC News.
Diddy’s Apology to His Family and Cassie Ventura
“I will never put my family in a risky situation,” said Sean “Diddy” Combs in court. “Whatever others may say, I can now really see that I am very sorry for everything.”
In another instance of his talk, the 55-year-old went on to say “personally” sorry to his former girlfriend Cassie Ventura who disapproved of him saying that he was sorry if “any trouble” might have been caused to her both emotionally and physically. “Violence in a home will still be a very heavy burden that I will have to live with forever,” he added. “My deeds were repugnant, shameful and abnormal. I was as sick as the drugs made me, I was out of control. I was in need of help, but I did not receive help and I cannot punt it away with an excuse.”
“I Stare to the Sky, Ask for Mercy”: Diddy Promises to Turn Around His Life
Though out of desperation, Sean “Diddy” Combs admitted that he “can’t turn the past around,” he promised to “change the future.”
He told Judge Arun Subramanian, “I am asking Your Honor to please give me the privilege to be a father again. If I am not a good father I only have myself to blame. I will never again hit another person. I have gotten my lesson. I will follow any conditions that the court sets for me.”
Moreover, “The only thing I do not have is my family—that is the only thing I need. I do not care about the fame or the money,” he said.
Emotional Statements from Diddy’s Children
“My dad is my hero, has always been my hero, and will always be my hero,” said Christian Combs—who is the son of Diddy and the late Kim Porter. “He used to be my father and my best friend, he was the one who taught me to treat women with respect.”
D’Lila Combs spoke about her little sister, Love, appealing for a compassionate perspective. “Our 2-year-old sister is saying, ‘Where is dad?’ just like we were motherless,” she informed the court. “It is a void that cannot be filled. We are tired of being the strong ones. We have lost our mother and our father already. Please, let us have the opportunity to recover and move on with each other.”
