Here’s What The Combs Kids Had To Say During Dad Diddy’s Sentence Hearing
Sean “Diddy” Combs was convicted on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution back in July, and is currently standing before Judge Arun Subramanian for sentencing.
Ahead of making his decision, the judge heard from both the prosecution and Diddy’s defense team. He also allowed the Bad Boy Records founder’s six eldest children — Quincy Brown, Justin Combs, Christian Combs, Jesse Combs, Chance Combs, and D’Lila Combs — to speak on their father’s behalf.

While addressing the court, all six children were reportedly shaken, with his daughters speaking through tears as they pleaded with the judge to go easy on the family patriarch. Siblings Quincy, Christian, Jesse and D’Lila were also sure to highlight how much their father has guided them through the loss of mom, Kim Porter, and how losing him would only compound that grief.
Diddy’s team is seeking 14 months, which would essentially be time served, while the prosecution is seeking 11 years and three months.

Quincy Brown

“We’re going to love him unconditionally through his struggles. But in front of you and in front of us is a changed man,” he said, via CNN. “Our father has learned a major lesson. Week after week, we’ve seen him evolve, something we haven’t seen in 15 years. He’s completely transformed.”
“Our father will never do anything to jeopardize his freedom, and as his children we want to thank you. We only wish to heal together,” he added.

Justin Combs

“I ask that you give my father a second chance, a second chance at life, a second chance to right his wrongs, a second chance to be the man he truly is,” the 31-year-old said. “My father is my superhero. Seeing him broken down and stripped of everything is something I will never forget.”
“I can truly sincerely say he’s changed for the better. Your honor, I believe my father still has so much more to give the world and, more importantly, so much more to give his children.”

Christian Combs

“My whole life, my entire life, I studied my dad up and down. To me my dad is the greatest man in the world. My whole life he’s always taught me to treat women with respect. I’ve seen him treat my mom with respect and treat her like a queen,” the 27-year-old added with a sniffle while discussing late mother, Kim Porter.

Jessie Combs
One of Diddy‘s twin daughters, Jessie Combs, couldn’t help but to break down in tears while addressing the court in regards to her father’s freedom.
“We know he isn’t perfect and he has made many mistakes and we aren’t here to excuse any of those mistakes. But, your honor, he is still our dad, and we still need him present in our lives,” she said through tears.
“When my mother died, I was just a little girl trying to understand a loss way too big for words. I remember my dad sitting us down that day, holding us close, even though his own heart was breaking and promising that he would always be there to keep us safe, that he would always walk beside us in life,” she told the court. “It was the thing that helped me survive the hardest nights, the birthdays, and the very important milestones we had to experience without her.”

Chance Combs

“We’re still just daughters who need our father,” she added, insisting that Combs now, “shares the ways he’s working on becoming a better man and a more present father, and I can feel a difference in the way that he listens and responds.”
She claims to have witnessed his evolution most prominently via the way he cares for his youngest daughter, 2-year-old Love Combs.
“Watching him nurture her, even from a distance, has been unexpectedly healing. I can see glimpses of the father he was to us as babies. But it also breaks my heart because my sister deserves so much more than this.”

D’Lila Combs

“We are scared, scared of the thought of not having our dad and our mom present in our lives,” she said through tears. “We are scared for our 2-year-old little sister that runs to us every night asking where daddy is. We cannot watch our baby sister grow up fatherless the same way we had to grow up fatherless.”
“Please, your honor, please, give our family the chance to heal together, to rebuild, to change, to move forward, not as a headline but as human beings who are trying to do better.”
