Warning: Discussion of rape.
Sean "Diddy" Combs's children issued a statement amid the rapper's growing legal troubles.
Last month, Diddy was arrested for federal charges of a racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and transportation for purposes of prostitution. He pleaded not guilty but has been denied bail and is currently being held in jail.
The Bad Boy executive is further facing numerous lawsuits accusing him of raping and drugging people, which he has denied. A new wave of lawsuits emerged this week, including one woman accusing Diddy of raping her as a 13-year-old in 2000.
Diddy is father to seven children, ranging from the ages of 33 to 1. The eldest, Quincy Brown, alongside Justin, 30, Christian, 26, Chance, 18, and 17-year-old twins Jessie and D’Lila Combs, shared a joint statement on Instagram alongside an image where baby Love could also be seen.
"The past month has devastated our family. Many have judged both him and us based on accusations, conspiracy theories, and false narratives that have spiraled into absurdity on social media," the caption read.
"We stand united, supporting you every step of the way. We hold onto the truth, knowing it will prevail, and nothing will break the strength of our family. WE MISS YOU & LOVE YOU DAD," they concluded.
Quincy has subsequently promoted his new YouTube family vlog series, which is set to include footage of Diddy. It has been met with some criticism.
