Diddy Thanks His Children for Singing Him Happy Birthday Over the Phone While in Custody

As Diddy awaits trial, his children remain supportive.

In a joint Instagram post, Quincy Brown, 33, Justin Combs, 30, King Combs, 26, Chance Combs, 18, and twins Jessie and D’Lila Combs, 17, celebrated their father’s 55th birthday on Monday (Nov. 4) by singing him “Happy Birthday” over the phone while he remains in custody. In the clip, his one-year-old daughter Love also sang along before taking a bite of the cake the group bought. “Happy Birthday Pops, we love you!” they captioned the post, in which Diddy is heard thanking his children on the other line.

“I love y’all so much. I can’t wait to see y’all. I just want to say I’m proud of y’all, especially the girls, I mean all of y’all, just for being strong. Thank y’all for being strong and for speaking out in support of me. I love y’all. I got the best family in the world. My birthday, I’m happy.”

The Combs children previously posted in support of their father on Oct. 22. “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,” read the joint statement. “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.” 

Diddy was arrested in September in New York City, and Manhattan federal prosecutors are accusing him of operating a criminal enterprise centered on his “pervasive pattern of abuse toward women.”

The indictment, obtained by Billboard, includes allegations of sexual abuse, accusing rapper and music executive of running a racketeering conspiracy that included sex trafficking, forced labor, kidnapping, arson and bribery. If convicted of the charges, Combs is facing a minimum sentence of 15 years in prison and a maximum of life behind bars. Diddy pleaded not guilty and his attorney, Marc Agnifilo, has maintained his client’s innocence.

Diddy was hit with six more civil abuse lawsuits last month, including one claim that he sexually assaulted a 13-year-old girl at a house party following the 2000 MTV Video Music Awards in an alleged incident that took place in front of two unnamed celebrities who also participated in the alleged assault. The latest legal actions came from lawyers Andrew Van Arsdale and Tony Buzbee, who warned that they represent at least 120 alleged victims.

The embattled Bad Boy mogul has repeatedly been denied bond and will remain behind bars until his trial begins in May 2025.
