Diddy Documentary Reveals Shocking Allegations and Childhood Secrets

NEW YORK — A new documentary titled “Diddy: The Making of a Bad Boy” has sparked controversy with explosive allegations against Sean “Diddy” Combs, the disgraced hip-hop mogul currently awaiting trial on federal charges of sex trafficking, racketeering, and prostitution. The 90-minute film, premiering on Peacock, features interviews with childhood friends, former employees, alleged victims, and singer Al B. Sure!, who was once married to Combs’ late ex-partner Kim Porter.

Combs, 55, has been in federal custody since September 2023, following a wave of lawsuits accusing him of sexual abuse, coercion, and other crimes. His legal team has denied all allegations, calling them “false and defamatory” and vowing to prove his innocence in court. The documentary, however, paints a darker picture of Combs’ rise to fame, tracing his early years in Mount Vernon, New York, and his alleged descent into misconduct.

Tim Patterson, a childhood friend of Combs, described him as “public enemy No. 1” in the documentary. “Monsters are made,” Patterson said, recalling how Combs was bullied as a child and exposed to adult environments at a young age. He alleged that Combs’ mother, Janice Combs, hosted wild parties where children were exposed to drugs, alcohol, and sexual activity. “That was just Saturday night,” Patterson said.

Al B. Sure!, who had a child with Kim Porter before she dated Combs, made startling claims about Porter’s 2018 death. “Her murder. Am I supposed to say ‘allegedly’?” he said in the documentary. Porter died of pneumonia at age 47, but Al B. Sure! suggested foul play, alleging that Porter had confided in him about her fear of Combs. “She was keeping a diary,” he claimed, adding that someone accessed her phone and computer after her death.

Ashley Parham, an alleged victim, spoke anonymously in the documentary, accusing Combs and his associates of gang-raping her in 2018 as retaliation for suggesting he was involved in the murder of rapper Tupac Shakur. Parham claimed Combs threatened her with a knife and drugged her before the assault. She alleged that law enforcement failed to properly investigate her case, and her lawyer, Ariel Mitchell, confirmed that police records were withheld from the documentary producers.

Gene Deal, Combs’ former bodyguard, also appeared in the film, recalling the night rapper The Notorious B.I.G. (Christopher Wallace) was killed in 1997. Deal suggested Combs may have had indirect involvement in the murder, though Combs has repeatedly denied any connection. “He placed B.I.G. in that atmosphere,” Deal said. “So did he directly have something to do with it? He could have.”

The documentary also includes allegations from a former Bad Boy employee, who claimed Combs sent him to recruit women for parties and engaged in sexual activity with underage girls. Combs’ attorneys dismissed these claims as “fabricated” and reiterated his innocence.

Despite its sensational revelations, the documentary has been criticized for its reliance on unverified claims and conspiracy theories. Combs’ legal team called it a “reckless media circus” and accused the filmmakers of promoting “baseless narratives.” The film premiered on Peacock on Tuesday, adding to the growing scrutiny surrounding Combs as he faces multiple legal battles.
