Diddy‘s son, King Combs, has given some insight into how his father is doing as the ongoing legal battles continue.
King Combs was with his brother, Justin, in Los Angeles when they were accosted by paparazzi accosted, and one asked how his father was “holding up.”
The younger Combs responded with just one word: “Good.” Throughout the exchange, his eldest brother Quincy seemed to be trying to disrupt the conversation by promoting an upcoming project.
The embattled Bad Boy mogul’s first born, however, remained silent on the matter.
Last month, though, King Combs faced his own drama when he was hit with a sexual assault lawsuit of his own in the wake of the myriad of similar charges against his embattled father.
The suit, which was filed on Thursday (April 4) in Los Angeles Superior Court, also lists the Bad Boy mogul as a defendant, according to court documents obtained by NBC News.
Grace O’Marcaigh, the plaintiff in the case, alleges that the Hip Hop scion raped her in 2022, just a few days before Diddy threw his annual New Year’s Eve yacht party.
What’s more, O’Marcaigh alleges that the the yacht party in question was advertised as a “wholesome family event,” but that it turned into a “hedonistic environment” before she knew it.
“Like father, like son,” said attorney Tyrone Blackburn, who is representing both O’Marcaigh and producer Lil Rod, who filed a similar suit against Diddy in February, in a statement after the filing was made public. “It gives us no joy or pleasure in filing this suit against Christian Combs who has clearly adopted his father’s pattern and practice of depravity.”
Aaron Dyer, attorney for both King Combs and Diddy, responded to the lawsuit with a statement that focused largely on Blackburn.
“This is just another lewd and meritless claim from Tyrone Blackburn — just like what he filed in the Rodney Jones lawsuit, which he still has not served,” Dyer wrote. “This complaint is filled with the same kind of manufactured lies and irrelevant facts we’ve come to expect from Blackburn.
“This is exactly why the federal judge in New York slapped him two days ago for a ‘pattern of behavior’ in ‘improperly [filing] cases in federal court to garner media attention, embarrass defendants with salacious allegations, and pressure defendants to settle quickly,’ and why he was referred to the disciplinary committee in the Southern District of New York. We will be filing a motion to dismiss this outrageous claim.”
