Jessie and D’Lila Combs Reflect on Their Relationship with Diddy

Jessie and D’Lila Combs are offering a closer look at their relationship with their father, Sean “Diddy” Combs. They describe him as an “amazing” parent, even as he remains incarcerated following his federal conviction on prostitution-related charges. In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, the 19-year-old twins spoke about staying connected with their father and the role he continues to play in their lives. They noted that Combs has been focused on reflection and personal change, describing him as someone working to become “a better man for his family.”

Their comments come as the Combs family continues navigating the aftermath of a highly publicized legal case. According to ET, Combs apologized to Jessie and D’Lila after surveillance footage from 2016 showing an altercation involving his former partner, Cassie Ventura, became public. The footage, which was first released by CNN and later shown during court proceedings, brought significant attention to the allegations surrounding the mogul’s personal life.

While acknowledging the challenges facing their family, the twins said they are focused on creating careers of their own. Jessie and D’Lila recently launched their fashion brand 12TWINTY1 and its debut “777 Collection.” This marks their first major step into the industry. They said their father has remained supportive of their goals, and they often turn to him for advice as they pursue opportunities in modeling—a path they hope will honor their late mother, Kim Porter.

The sisters also addressed assumptions that their family name has made their journey easier. “We’re not nepo babies,” they said, emphasizing that they want their success to come from their own effort and commitment. The twins are determined to build something that reflects their own identity, rather than relying solely on their connection to their father.

Meanwhile, Combs continues seeking legal options following his conviction. His attorneys are currently pursuing an appeal in an effort to challenge the verdict and the sentence that followed.
