On Friday, November 15, the twin daughters of Sean “Diddy” Combs and the late Kim Porter, D’Lila and Jessie, marked the sixth anniversary of their mother's tragic passing with an emotional tribute. The twins shared a heartfelt message alongside a black-and-white photo of Porter holding them as newborns. In the caption, they expressed their deep love and longing for their mother: “We can’t believe it’s been 6 years without you... We think about you every single second of the day. We love and miss you so much words can’t even explain. We wish you were here with us but we know your spirit will be around forever!! We Love you Mommy.”
Kim Porter, who passed away on November 15, 2018, at the age of 47, died from lobar pneumonia, leaving behind her children with Diddy and a legacy of love and devotion. The anniversary of her death has brought an outpouring of grief and remembrance from her family, especially her children, who have often spoken about the deep void her passing left in their lives.
In addition to the tribute, the family recently responded to controversy surrounding a posthumous memoir, Kim’s Lost Words: A Journey for Justice From the Other Side..., which was allegedly written by Porter. The book suggested an abusive relationship between Porter and Diddy, claims which both the family and Combs' attorney have strongly denied. The children's statement, issued alongside the controversy, dismissed the memoir as “fake” and condemned anyone exploiting their mother's memory for profit. “Claims that our mom wrote a book are simply untrue,” they said. They further clarified that any individual claiming to speak on Porter's behalf was misrepresenting her, and urged the public to respect their grieving process.
Meanwhile, Diddy has been facing legal challenges of his own. The music mogul was arrested in September 2024 in New York City on federal charges related to sex trafficking and racketeering. He has been denied bond twice and is awaiting trial. Despite the tumultuous circumstances, the family continues to grieve Kim Porter's loss and requests privacy during this ongoing emotional journey.
