Sean “Diddy” Combs has issued a public apology after a disturbing video surfaced showing him physically assaulting his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura in 2016. The video, obtained by CNN, depicts Combs chasing Ventura down a hotel hallway, violently striking her across the head, throwing her to the ground, kicking her, and dragging her by her hoodie.
In his apology video, Combs said, “I take full responsibility for my actions in that video. I’m disgusted. I was disgusted then when I did it, I’m disgusted now.” He admitted to hitting “rock bottom” and seeking professional help through therapy and rehab after the incident. Combs also stated, “I’m not asking for forgiveness. I’m truly sorry.”
The assault occurred on March 5, 2016 at a Los Angeles hotel, aligning with allegations made by Ventura in a lawsuit she filed against Combs last year accusing him of rape, sex trafficking, and abuse. They reached an undisclosed settlement a day after the filing.
While the Los Angeles District Attorney’s office cannot prosecute due to the statute of limitations, they encouraged victims to report crimes. Combs currently faces multiple other civil lawsuits alleging sexual misconduct and illegal behavior. His legal team has denied wrongdoing, but the resurfaced video has drawn widespread condemnation.
