Cassie Ventura, once in a relationship with Combs, is now a mother figure.
Cassandra Ventura Welcomes Third Child Amidst Ongoing Legal Proceedings Against Sean Combs
Cassandra Ventura, a singer who previously testified about her contentious relationship with Sean "Diddy" Combs in court, has given birth to a son. According to reports from TMZ and People, the 38-year-old is now a mother of three.
Ventura, who was previously romantically linked to Combs, is said to have given birth to a boy. She had earlier revealed the gender of her child on Instagram. Reports suggested that she was hospitalized in the U.S. for the birth, which occurred recently.
This is the first son for Ventura and her husband, Alex Fine. They already have two daughters, Frankie and Sunny. Ventura announced her third pregnancy in February, sharing a series of photos on Instagram featuring her baby bump and her two daughters. "#3" she wrote, accompanied by a heart. Several celebrities, including Jessica Alba and the Kardashian sisters, offered their congratulations under the post.
In a recent turn of events, Ventura testified in court against Combs for several days. He is currently facing charges of conspiracy to commit organized crime, prostitution, extortion, and sex trafficking, among other offenses. Through her testimony, Ventura depicted a relationship marked by violence and manipulation over the years. She also discussed a surveillance video from a Los Angeles hotel in 2016, showing Combs physically attacking her. According to her account, she did not retaliate due to the fear of heightened violence.
Ventura previously filed a lawsuit against Combs in 2023. In November 2023, the rapper and his ex-girlfriend reached a settlement out of court - shortly after Ventura filed a civil lawsuit for abuse and rape.
While Ventura did not testify in the ongoing federal trial against Combs, her experiences form a significant part of testimony by other witnesses, particularly regarding alleged abuse and intimidation. Witnesses such as Deonte Nash, a friend and stylist, testified about Combs' domination of Ventura's life, impacting her music and social life, and numerous instances of physical violence. Another witness, "Mia," a former assistant, echoed Nash’s testimony, detailed violent incidents, and shared fears for Cassie's safety.
