AceShowbiz - Sean "P. Diddy" Combs seemingly didn't have the most joyful Thanksgiving. The hip-hop mogul was spotted looking unhappy on Friday, November 24 amid a third sexual assault allegations against him.
The 54-year-old reportedly spent the Thanksgiving weekend with his mother Janice Combs, daughter Chance, her mother Sarah Chapman and teenage daughters D'Lila Star and Jessie James. However, the rapper looked downcast when he was photographed at his swanky mansion in Star Island near Miami.
Clad in an all-black ensemble, the Bad Boy Records founder appeared to be lost in thought as he stepped out to what looked like the patio of his luxury estate. He was walking alone, while some of his family members were seen in another area of the house.
Meanwhile, Diddy's spokesperson has issued a statement denying the allegations in the third lawsuit by a woman called Jane Doe. "These are civil suits with fabricated claims of misconduct from over 30 years ago, which are nothing but a blatant money grab. Mr. Combs is being unfairly targeted by anonymous accusers who lie for financial gain. The New York Legislature never intended the Adult Survivors Act to be exploited," the rep said on Friday.
The spokesperson also called the lawsuit an attempt at "money grab" and called the rapper "an easy target" due to his fame. "This is nothing but a money grab. Because of Mr. Combs' fame and success, he is an easy target for anonymous accusers who lie without conscience or consequence for financial benefit," the rep told Page Six, before warning, "The public should be skeptical and not rush to accept these bogus allegations."
In the legal docs filed to New York Supreme Court, Jane Doe alleged that Diddy and R&B star Aaron Hall took turns raping her and her friend at an MCA Records event in New York City in the early 1990s. She claimed that an "irate" Diddy later came to the plaintiff's home and physically assaulted her, "choking Jane Doe to the point that she passed out."
Previously, Diddy was hit with a lawsuit by Cassie accusing him of rape, abuse and sex trafficking during their on-off relationship from 2007 to 2018. He settled the lawsuit with his ex-girlfriend one day later, before being slapped with a second lawsuit by another woman, Joi Dickerson-Neal, who accused him of rape, drugging and revenge porn back in 1991.
His spokesperson also denied the allegations, stating, "This last-minute lawsuit is an example of how a well-intentioned law can be turned on its head," making a reference to New York's Adult Survivors Act, which "allows people to pursue claims against alleged abusers regardless of the statute of limitations" and expires on Friday.
"Ms. Dickerson's 32-year-old story is made up and not credible. Mr. Combs never assaulted her, and she implicates companies that did not exist. This is purely a money grab and nothing more," the spokesperson went on to insist.
