Naomi Campbell has long been friends with Sean 'Diddy' Combs - and even threw him a star-studded birthday bash. To celebrate his 53rd birthday on November 9, 2023, the British supermodel hosted a bash at the lavish LAVO restaurant, part of London's luxe BoTree Hotel, with a prestigious guest list including the likes of Janet Jackson and Idris Elba. Naomi, 54, looked striking in a plunging black dress as she posed with Diddy and other celeb guests with snaps shared online, offering a peek into the glittering evening.
Just one week later, however, Diddy's former girlfriend Cassie came forward with serious allegations against the rapper. The singer, who began dating Diddy in 2005 when she was 19 and he was 37, claimed that Diddy was 'prone to uncontrollable rage', and recounted multiple occasions when he allegedly subjected her to 'savage' beating. She also alleged that he'd forced her to have sex with other men, while he watched.
Diddy vehemently denied the charges he faced. The case was settled in just one day, with lawyers announcing the claims had been resolved 'amicably' to the 'mutual satisfaction' of both parties involved. No other details about the terms of the deal have been disclosed.
