Since the death of Kim Porter, many conspiracy theories have arisen around the circumstances of Diddy's ex-wife's passing, and now they have only intensified. The rapper's children from his relationship with Porter—26-year-old Christian and 17-year-old Jessie and D'Lila—have decided to address the issue in an extensive statement.

Diddy has been in the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn for a week, awaiting trial. Even his lawyers' $50 million bail offer didn't help, as the court firmly rejected it. The rapper has been charged with a 14-page indictment accusing him of various crimes, which could result in a life sentence.
Amidst the shocking reports of Diddy's alleged wrongdoings, the internet is abuzz with speculations about further sins that the disgraced star may have on his conscience. Conspiracy theorists speculate that the musician might have had something to do with the death of his children's mother, Kim Porter, who died suddenly in 2018 after battling lobar pneumonia. The parents of 26-year-old Christian and 17-year-old Jessie and D'Lila had an exceptionally tumultuous relationship, which only fueled an avalanche of even greater suspicions.
So far, Diddy's children have preferred not to comment on the shocking reports about their father and his criminal practices, which are hair-raising. On Tuesday evening, a week after the musician's arrest by federal agents, Christian, Jessie, and D'Lila decided to break their silence and publish an extensive statement online.
We have seen so many hurtful and false rumors circulating about our parents, Kim Porter and Sean Combs’ relationship, as well as about our mom’s tragic passing, that we feel the need to speak out - it reads at the beginning.
Let us recall that Porter and Diddy were in a relationship from 1994 to 2007. Rumor has it that a new book supposedly being Porter's memoirs has come to light, revealing that Combs allegedly subjected his partner to domestic violence. The 60-page book titled "KIM’S LOST WORDS," supposedly a collection of Porter's diaries, was allegedly to be published by her acquaintances. The statement from Combs's children pertained precisely to this publication.
Claims that our mom wrote a book are simply untrue - they emphasize. She did not, and anyone claiming to have a manuscript is misrepresenting themselves. Additionally, please understand that any so-called ‘friend’ speaking on behalf of our mom or her family is not a friend, nor do they have her best interests at heart.
In the further part of the statement, the siblings addressed the rumors that Combs may have had a hand in their mother's death.
Our lives were shattered when we lost our mother. She was our world. And nothing has been the same since she passed. While it has been incredibly difficult to reconcile how she could be taken from us too soon, the cause of her death has long been established - they emphasized. - There was no foul play. Grief is a lifelong process, and we ask that everyone respect our request for peace as we continue to cope with her loss every day. We are deeply saddened that the world has made a spectacle of what has been the most tragic event of our lives. Our mother should be remembered for the beautiful, strong, kind, and loving woman she was. Her memory should not be tainted by horrific conspiracy theories.
We ask that everyone please respect our mother, Kim Porter, and hold her legacy in high regard so that she may rest in peace. It’s what she deserves. We love you and miss you Mommy. Quincy, Christian, Jessie & D’Lila - they added at the end.
