Ex-girlfriend tells court she regrets sex acts done to please Diddy in sex-trafficking trial.
In explosive courtroom scenes, Sean “Diddy” Combs’s former girlfriend delivered harrowing testimony, revealing she regrets participating in sex acts orchestrated by the music mogul as part of what she now recognises as a “cuckold” lifestyle. Testifying under the pseudonym “Jane” to shield her identity, she spoke at Combs’s ongoing sex-trafficking trial, painting a deeply disturbing picture of emotional manipulation and sexual coercion.
Jane told the Manhattan federal court she engaged in sex acts with male sex workers at Diddy’s request, believing at the time it would make him love her more. But she now views her involvement with profound regret and anger towards Combs for luring her into the degrading arrangement. “I resent him for leading me into the lifestyle he led me to,” she said under cross-examination. “I resented the way he went about introducing me to this lifestyle.”
The testimony came a day after Jane disclosed that their three-year relationship had lasted until Combs’s arrest in September at a New York hotel — the very place she had planned to meet him before law enforcement intervened.
Combs, 55, faces serious charges of sex trafficking and racketeering conspiracy, which could land him behind bars for 15 years to life if convicted. Prosecutors allege the Bad Boy Records founder ran a sophisticated and violent network that sexually exploited women over two decades. His lawyers admit to domestic violence but argue all sexual acts were consensual.
Jane described how “hotel nights” would frequently involve drug-fuelled sexual marathons, sometimes taking place weekly. Under the questioning of Combs’s lawyer, Teny Geragos, Jane acknowledged she had earlier testified to feeling regret and emotional turmoil over the acts. She told the jury that at the time, she had been deeply in love with Combs and willing to comply to keep their relationship intact.
“I was under a lot of emotional pressure,” she admitted. “I really wanted to just go along with these things because if I can be my partner’s escape, then I would be.”
Jane began therapy three months ago, helping her confront the reality of her experiences. She said her understanding of what had happened became clearer during treatment. “I struggle to understand why I kept participating… but it’s becoming more and more clear.”
The term “cuckold,” which she discovered during personal research in 2022, resonated painfully with her situation. She described the arrangement as Combs deriving pleasure from watching her engage sexually with other men, a discovery that further deepened her sense of violation.
Her emotional account follows earlier testimony from R&B singer Casandra “Cassie” Ventura, who spent four days on the stand describing an 11-year relationship with Combs marked by domestic violence and hundreds of “freak-off” sex performances. Cassie’s lawsuit against Combs was settled last November for $20 million but ignited the criminal investigation now unfolding.
In her gripping testimony, Jane also recalled recent instances of Combs allegedly resorting to violence to fulfil his sexual desires. Prosecutors argue such patterns of violence, threats, and control were central to Combs’s systematic exploitation of women.
As the trial continues, Combs remains jailed without bail, maintaining his plea of not guilty. The courtroom drama has captured widespread attention, revealing a dark underbelly of fame, power, and abuse surrounding one of music’s most influential figures.
With further witnesses set to take the stand, the proceedings promise more bombshell revelations in the weeks ahead. The case not only threatens Diddy’s legacy but has also sparked broader discussions on coercion, consent, and accountability in powerful circles.
