Sean “Diddy” Combs may have been jailed on his birthday, but he didn’t celebrate alone.
Six of his seven children phoned him Monday, gathering around a cake and singing their dad the birthday song, a family moment that his son, Justin, shared in an Instagram reel, while the seventh phoned in via a separate FaceTime, People reported.
The 30-year-old brother held the phone, as sibling Christian, 26, stood by him. Diddy’s 17-year-old twins, D’Lila and Jessie, helped family baby Love, 2, sing along. Quincy, 33, was also on hand, while sister Chance, 18, attended via a separate FaceTime.
“I love you all, I love you all so much,” doting Diddy could be heard saying. “I can’t wait to see ya’ll. I can’t wait to see ya’ll. I just want to say I’m proud of ya’ll, especially the girls — I mean, all of ya’ll.”
Diddy was arrested in September at a Midtown hotel in New York City and has been remanded to the notorious Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, where he is being held without bail pending trial on racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking charges.
Numerous lawsuits have been filed alleging drug- and violence-fueled assaults that included forcing women to participate in “freak offs” with male sex workers.
On his 55th birthday, Diddy got to see Love nearly face-plant into the cake as his kids said they might not be able to stop her from devouring the whole thing.
His children have supported him, with several of them issuing a statement last month detailing the toll the allegations had taken.
“The past month has devastated our family,” all the kids but Love told People in a statement. “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 & LOVE YOU DAD. Quincy, Justin, Christian, Chance, Jessie & D’Lila.”
