Sean “Diddy” Combs celebrated his birthday behind bars with a phone call from his seven children — and the embattled mogul sounded shockingly positive despite the bombshell allegations against him.

Combs turned 55 on Monday, Nov. 4, and while he’s stuck with prison food for his birthday meal, his kids still ordered an elaborate cake and serenaded him on the phone.

Quincy, 33; Justin, 30; Christian, 26; twins D’Lila and Jessie, 17; and Love, 1, gathered around the kitchen table to sing to their incarcerated dad while Chance, 18, called one of her brothers and joined in on speakerphone.

Love blew out the birthday candles as Combs chimed in by telling his family how much he loved them.

“I can’t wait to see y’all, and I just want to say I’m proud of y’all — especially the girls,” the fallen mogul can be heard on the phone in the first audio shared since his arrest on Sept. 16.

“I mean, all y’all for being strong,” Combs continued. “Thank y’all for being strong and being by my side.”

He went on to tell his children that he has the “best family in the world” and thanked them for the birthday message.

“My birthday, I’m happy,” Combs told his kids. “Thank y’all for giving me this call. Thank you very much. I love y’all.”

Love then interjected, telling her dad she loved him.

“I love you too, baby!” the jailbird responded while laughing.

When Quincy shared with Combs that Love had stuck her face in his cake and there was “none left,” his father excitedly cheered her on.

“Get it, Love. Get it,” the dad of seven stated.

Justin shared the video and audio on social media with the caption, “Happy Birthday Pops, we love you!” Each of the kids then shared the footage and call on their respective Instagram pages.

Combs is locked up at Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn without bail on charges of sex trafficking and racketeering. The embattled Bad Boy Records CEO will remain imprisoned while awaiting his trial, recently set for May 5, 2025.

In October, his attorney, Marc Agnifilo, shared 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 claim Combs 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.

Combs was charged with racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking and transportation to engage in prostitution. He has pleaded not guilty to the charges.

The businessman-turned-prisoner has been flooded with additional accusations since being incarcerated, 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 an MTV Video Music Awards after-party.

Combs’ legal team fired back, claiming the lawsuits are “clear attempts to garner publicity.”
