The father of the late Kim Porter has expressed his shock after seeing a video of Sean “Diddy” Combs allegedly abusing his ex-girlfriend, Cassandra “Cassie” Ventura.
In an interview with Rolling Stone, Jake Porter, Kim Porter’s father, shared his disgust regarding the footage depicting Diddy mistreating Cassie.
The 78-year-old said:
“You can say I was disgusted with the video, and I wouldn’t treat my enemy like that. It was despicable. I couldn’t believe it. I was in Vietnam, and I wouldn’t do that to my enemy.”
Jake mentioned he had never seen Diddy physically harm Kim before her unexpected death in November 2018, but the rapper’s treatment of Cassie has made him rethink his perception of the rap mogul.
“I didn’t know he could stoop so low,” he remarked. “I imagine it surprised a lot of people. I wouldn’t even do a dog like that. My heart goes out to Cassie.”
He continued, revealing that while his daughter genuinely loved the Bad Boy Records founder, living with him was unbearable for her.
“I think he was a very jealous person,” he explained. “They both loved each other. Kim’s love was legitimate. Puffy’s love, I don’t know what he calls love, you know what I mean?”
“I really don’t think he has any idea what love is,” he added.
Diddy Apologizes For His Actions After Viral Abuse Video
Jake Porter’s comments come after CNN released a hotel surveillance footage last month, showing Diddy physically assaulting his ex-girlfriend Cassie in a hotel in 2016.
This incident was included in Cassie’s November 2023 lawsuit against the rapper, where she accused him of rape and abuse over their 10-year relationship. The lawsuit was swiftly settled within hours of its filing.
After the assault video went viral, Diddy issued an apology on his Instagram, expressing deep remorse for his actions.
