Celebrities Who Have Been Named in the Diddy Case

On September 16, 2024, musical mogul Sean “P Diddy” Combs was arrested on charges of racketeering, trafficking, and abuse. The arrest comes after close to a year of investigations that involved home raids and several lawsuits filed against him. For years, Diddy has thrown extravagant parties and been involved with nearly everyone in Hollywood. So as his crimes come to light, a big question remains: Who else was involved?

As the case moves forward and more information is released, we’re certain that big Hollywood names will go down just as Diddy has. As of right now, we have a list of six celebrities named in the Diddy case. These names aren’t all people allegedly involved in criminal activity, however. Some of these celebrities are the ones filing lawsuits against Diddy or simply people he’s associated with in the past. Join us as we reveal these names and exactly how they’re involved. And be prepared to see this list grow as witnesses come forward and people start talking to save themselves.

R&B singer Cassie Ventura filed a lawsuit against Diddy in November 2023 alleging multiple forms of abuse. The two dated on and off and had a professional relationship for over a decade.

Ventura claims she was forced to engage in Diddy’s “freakoff” parties and take illegal substances with threats of violence. They settled out of court, but her bravery sparked a much larger investigation into the rapper, with more lawsuits being filed.

Let’s start by saying Prince Harry isn’t accused of any wrongdoing. In February 2024, music producer Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones filed a lawsuit against Diddy alleging SA, trafficking, and misconduct related to drugs. He listed many celebrities in the suit.

Jones mentioned Prince Harry as an example of the influential connection Diddy has and uses. Prince Harry, among other celebrities, is invited to certain events to make all Diddy events seem legitimate.
