Diddy’s Son King Combs Takes Control of Dad’s Socials While He’s in Prison
Diddy’s son Christian “King” Combs has decided to take over his father’s Instagram account as the disgraced mogul awaits his 2025 trial.
In a video posted on his father’s IG on Wednesday (Nov. 6), Diddy’s youngest son said he was going to post throwback videos of the “positive things” his dad has done over the years. “What’s up y’all it’s King Combs and right now I’m taking over my Pops’ Instagram,” the 26-year-old says in the video. “We’re gonna be posting videos by spreading good energy and taking y’all down memory lane of all the positive things he did. So, stay tuned and watch this. We love you, pops. Happy Birthday.”

A few weeks ago, his children released a joint statement via socials, writing, “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. 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 on Sept. 16, 2024 for charges that include racketeering, bribery, sex trafficking and more. The music executive and businessman’s empire began crumbling a year prior when his former girlfriend Cassie Ventura filed a lawsuit on Nov. 16, 2023 accusing him of domestic violence and sexual abuse during their 10-plus years together.
Combs decided to settle less than 24 hours later and released a statement, saying, “We have decided to resolve this matter amicably. I wish Cassie and her family all the best. Love.”
His trial is set for May 5, 2025.
