Lawsuit targets 'Diddy,' son: 'Apple does not fall far from the tree'
Newsy
A new lawsuit, filed in Los Angeles, names both Sean and Christian Combs as defendants and alleges assault, sexual assault and battery on a woman.
A new lawsuit targeting hip-hop mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs alleges that his son attacked an employee on a yacht in 2022, and also appears to confirm allegations from other lawsuits recently filed.
The newest lawsuit, filed in Los Angeles, names both Sean and Christian Combs as defendants and alleges assault, sexual assault and battery on a young woman who had been working on a ship chartered by the family.
The woman, who says that she grew up loving yachting and built her career on it, has now left the profession after the incident she said happened on the yacht named "Victorious."
Sean has come under fire after a slew of recent lawsuits alleged a range of abuses, including sexual assault, rape and human trafficking. Among the most recent of the lawsuits was one filed by producer Rodney Jones, who noted the yacht as the site where he was sexually assaulted by actor Cuba Gooding Jr.
The newest lawsuit explicitly references the other lawsuits, not only corroborating claims from Jones, but noting that Christian’s behaviors are similar to his father's saying, "Unfortunately, as the saying has it, the apple does not fall far from the tree."
