Diddy’s Children Share Heartfelt Birthday Call With Their Father From Jail
After decades of birthday extravaganzas and lavish parties, this lap around the sun looks quite different for Sean “Diddy” Combs. Today (Nov. 4), the Bad Boy founder is spending his 55th birthday behind bars after being arrested last month for sex trafficking and racketeering conspiracy charges. However, his family made sure he still felt the love.
A joint Instagram post with his sons Justin and Christian, twin daughters, Chance, Quincy and baby Love shared the heartfelt call the kids had with their father to wish him a happy birthday. The message began with the youngest, Love, singing “Happy Birthday” to her father as her siblings joined in at the end.
“I love y’all, I love y’all so much,” Diddy said from the other end as they all echoed, “We love you, too.”
The “All About The Benjamins” artist continued by expressing his appreciation for his family holding it down. “I can’t wait to see yall. 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. Thank y’all for being by my side and supporting me. I love y’all. I got the best family in the world,” he said. “My birthday. I’m happy. Thank you guys for this call.”
“Can’t wait to see you in a couple of days,” Justin chimed in.
Quincy then provided a play-by-play of what’s happening on their end of the call. “Yo Pops, Love is eating all your cake, so you’re not going to have none left. She’s face down in the cake right now,” he said as they all laugh.
Despite the heinous allegations that are being made against Diddy, many commenters emphasized with the kids in the comments of the post. “Regardless they love their father man! Just because our loved ones may do something crazy it don’t take the love away! My heart go out to them man,” one person wrote as another top-liked comment read, “That man was a great father can’t take that away from him.”
Speaking of Diddy’s birthday, The New York Post recently revealed what the disgraced mogul’s birthday meal would be today. The outlet reached out to the Federal Bureau of Prisons to confirm what is being served to inmates at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, where the father of seven is currently being held.
For breakfast, Diddy was likely served breakfast items like cereal, fruit and a breakfast cake, according to the outlet. Then, around 11 a.m., Monday’s lunch at the prison includes “pasta with marinara sauce, meatballs and a garden salad.” For dinner, he will be able to have chicken or tofu fried rice with black beans and carrots at 4 p.m.
On Sept. 16, 2024, the Love Album creator was arrested in NYC and charged with racketeering conspiracy; sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion; and transportation to engage in prostitution. Disturbing details from the court documents accused Diddy of using his companies to fund and facilitate “Freak Offs,” where he’d allegedly drug his victims and put them in sexually abusive situations. He has been denied bail twice.
