Gene Deal, one of Sean "Diddy" Combs’ former bodyguards, said Diddy physically abused many of his past girlfriends, including the late Kim Porter.
Kim Porter, who has three biological kids with Diddy and an older child that Diddy adopted, died in 2018 due to complications from pneumonia.
However, with Cassie coming out of sue Diddy for rape, sex trafficking, and physical abuse, talks surrounding Diddy's relationship with Kim Porter have been brought up.
Questions have also been raised about how people connected to the rapper have died, including allegations that Kim Porter died after planning to release a tell-all book.










In a video, Diddy's former bodyguard Gene laughed at the appearance of grief Diddy puts up about Kim's death.
He said Diddy broke Kim Porter's nose one time.
"You used to be a woman-beater," he said in a YouTube video. "Talk about how you used to beat Misa’s [Hylton] a** … talk about how you tried to beat Kim’s a**."
Gene was asked about a song Diddy released titled "Kim Porter" and Gene replied: "I think that's a great thing to do for the woman you claim to love."
Then laughing, Gene added, "To honour the woman who gave you a scar on your wrist for the rest of your life, that you could always look at and remember."
He added that if Diddy ever tries to forget Kim, "all he has to do is look at his wrist."
Recounting the incident, Gene said: "One night, when they were at home in Kim's house, he wanted to put his hands on her in the wrong way and Kim took one of those corkscrews and ripped his wrist up. It hit an artery. And when she did that, he had to rush over to St. Luke's hospital."
Gene added that their relationship was violent and Kim could not be with anybody else but Diddy "could do whatever he want to".
He said that even when Diddy was dating J.Lo, he still controlled Kim's life and "made it very uncomfortable" if Kim tried to move on with anybody else.
The interviewer then told Gene that it appears Diddy now regrets subjecting Kim to abuse but the ex bodyguard said the rapper was just doing it for the public.
Gene said: "All that shit look good for the media."
Gene also disclosed that Diddy “used the bodyguards” during his alleged abuse of Kim.
The interview with Gene happened before Cassie filed a lawsuit against Diddy. Also, other women who have worked with Diddy's record label have also thrown their weight behind Cassie while revealing that Diddy recently tried to get them to sign a nondisclosure agreement (NDA) to silence them. Aubrey O’Day and Dawn Richard both spoke up to support Cassie.
In her lawsuit, Cassie Ventura said that she first met Combs in 2005 when she was 19 and he was 37; she was signed to his label, Bad Boy Records.
Within a year, people on Combs’ team began telling Ventura that he was interested in her, though the lawsuit states she was “disgusted” at the thought of them dating due to their age difference. He began positioning himself as a father figure to her, and when she turned 21, the lawsuit alleges that he forced himself on her for the first time:
"At an afterparty in a hotel suite following Ms. Ventura’s 21st birthday party, Mr. Combs pulled Ms. Ventura into a bathroom and forcibly kissed her. Ms. Ventura did not consent to this unwanted contact. She immediately ran out of the bathroom and the hotel suite and cried. She told her best friend at the time about what had happened but was too scared to tell anyone else," the lawsuit alleges.
Combs was in a relationship with model and actress Kim Porter at the time. The next day at the Video Music Awards, Ventura alleges that Combs berated her for bringing her boyfriend. That same month, he gave Ventura a pill and instructed her to take it. He then paid a promoter to make a fake flyer about a party in Miami allegedly so Ventura would be separated from her boyfriend and travel to Florida with Combs. The lawsuit states she was scared and didn’t want to go, but she felt she had no choice:
According to the lawsuit, "During this trip to Miami, Mr. Combs provided Ms. Ventura with copious amounts of drugs — she became more intoxicated than she ever had before, and her intoxication lasted throughout the weekend trip. As she wanted Mr. Combs to continue to support her career, she felt she could not refuse Mr. Combs’ urging her to take more drugs. After providing her with drugs, Mr. Combs had sexual intercourse with Ms. Ventura during this trip."
Ventura and Combs entered a relationship, and he paid for her car and apartments in New York and California — both of which were within walking distance of Combs’ homes. “All aspects of Ms. Ventura’s life were controlled by either Mr. Combs or his management companies,” the lawsuit states.
Throughout the relationship, Combs was physically violent to the point that Ventura required medical attention. When Ventura was 22, Combs began trafficking her in incidents he called “freak-outs,” or FOs:
