Sean “Diddy” Combs, once famous for his wild parties with celebrities, is now in Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center—a big change from his flashy lifestyle. His ex-bodyguard, Gene Deal, recently stirred up drama by claiming Diddy’s mom, Janice Combs, attended his controversial “freak-off” parties. This seems surprising since Janice has always defended her son during his legal issues.
In a YouTube interview on The Art of Dialogue, Diddy’s ex-bodyguard Gene Deal revealed that Diddy’s mom, Janice, might have known about his wild parties. Deal said, “I’m not saying she was involved, but if she was at a freak-off at 70, she was like the others… the freaks come out at night.” He hinted that while Janice didn’t take part in the wild events, she was aware of what was happening around her.
Deal said, “She liked to party, especially with younger people. She’s always been like that.” He also claimed Janice knew about Diddy’s business and dated younger men. These accusations add more intrigue to Diddy’s troubles. After his September 2024 arrest for sex trafficking and racketeering, people began wondering if his family was involved.
In October, Janice strongly defended Diddy, calling the media coverage a modern “public lynching.” She said he was being judged unfairly and called it heartbreaking. While admitting her son isn’t perfect—especially after a 2016 video allegedly showed him abusing ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura—she argued the latest claims were money grabs, with people hoping for quick payouts after he settled his first lawsuit.
Janice urged the public and Diddy’s fans not to rush to judgment, according to People. However, things look grim for Diddy. A judge denied him bail last Wednesday, citing his violent past and risk of witness tampering. His trial is set for May 5, and if convicted, he could face life in prison, Billboard reported. This case has deeply affected his career and legacy.
