Sean 'Diddy' Combs marked his birthday in jail with a phone call from his seven children, and the embattled mogul appeared surprisingly upbeat despite the serious charges against him. Diddy turned 55 on Monday, Nov. 4, and while he had to settle for prison food for his birthday meal, his kids arranged for a lavish cake and sang to him over the phone.
Quincy, 33; Justin, 30; Christian, 26; twins D'Lila and Jessie, 17; and Love, 2, gathered around the kitchen table to serenade their incarcerated father, while Chance, 18, joined in via speakerphone. Love blew out the birthday candles as Diddy expressed his love for his family, saying, 'I can't wait to see y'all, and I just want to say I'm proud of y'all — especially the girls.'
Diddy continued, 'I mean, all y'all for being strong. Thank y'all for being strong and being by my side.' He praised his children, calling them the 'best family in the world' and thanked them for the birthday message. 'My birthday, I'm happy,' Diddy told his kids. 'Thank y'all for giving me this call. Thank you very much. I love y'all.'
Love then chimed in, telling Diddy she loved him. 'I love you too, baby!' Diddy responded with laughter. When Quincy informed Diddy that Love had dug into his cake, leaving none behind, Diddy enthusiastically cheered her on, saying, 'Get it, Love. Get it.'
Justin shared the video and audio on social media with the caption, 'Happy Birthday Pops, we love you!' Each of the kids then posted the footage and call on their Instagram pages.
Diddy is currently held at MDC Brooklyn without bail on charges of sex trafficking and racketeering. The Bad Boy Records CEO will remain in prison while awaiting his trial, scheduled for May 5, 2025. The Post obtained the meal menu at Diddy's prison, revealing what the rapper ate for his 55th birthday behind bars.
In October, his attorney, Marc Agnifilo, mentioned that 'the food's probably the roughest part' of his client's jail stint. Homeland Security Investigations arrested the mogul at a New York City hotel nearly two months ago.
Prosecutors allege that Diddy forced his alleged victims to participate in 'Freak Offs' that he 'arranged, directed, masturbated during, and often electronically recorded' to use as 'collateral' for blackmail. They also claim he used guns 'to intimidate and threaten' his alleged victims.
Diddy was charged with racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution. He has pleaded not guilty to the charges. Since his incarceration, additional accusations have surfaced, including allegations that he raped a 10-year-old boy in 2005 and drugged and raped a 13-year-old girl in 2000 with two celebrities at a VMAs afterparty.
Diddy's legal team has dismissed these lawsuits as 'clear attempts to garner publicity.'
