New Lawsuit Accuses Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs of Drugging, Impregnating Woman, Who Claims She Had ‘Bite Mark on Heel’
An unidentified woman claims in the complaint that the music mogul sexually abused and harassed her for four years, starting in 2020
A Florida woman has filed a new lawsuit claiming Sean “Diddy” Combs got her pregnant after drugging and sexually assaulting her, and that he harassed and intimated her until recently.
According to the complaint filed on Friday, Sept. 27, in New York Supreme Court and obtained by PEOPLE, the woman, who’s listed as a Jane Doe, said the beleaguered music mogul repeatedly sexually assaulted her over the course of four years, starting in 2020.
The complaint seeks “injuries and damages” the woman claims she suffered “as a direct and proximate result of the Defendant’s wrongful conduct,” which allegedly began in the fall of 2020 and “continued to present,” the complaint claims.
The complaint comes at a time Combs is facing other legal troubles. He was arrested on Sept. 16 and charged in federal court with sex trafficking, racketeering and transportation to engage in prostitution.

The 14-page federal indictment against Combs included details about how he had allegedly electronically recorded so-called “freak offs,” described as elaborate and produced sex performances that Combs arranged and directed.
On Wednesday, Sept. 25, Thalia Graves filed a civil complaint against Combs seeking damages after she claims he and his bodyguard, Joseph Sherman, drugged and raped her and recorded the attack.
In this civil complaint, a woman stated that she met Combs, 54, “at an overseas location” and was invited on a trip with Combs, who paid for her transportation.
In December 2020, it claims, she and Combs met again and began seeing each other regularly. Starting in 2021, Combs began forcing her to travel with him, she claims. Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs Placed on Suicide Watch While Awaiting Trial but Mental State Unclear, Sources Say (Exclusive)
Combs and his employees would send drivers to her house to pick her up before she agreed to travel, to the point where she “did not believe she had a choice,” the complaint claims.
Combs and others “not only used language and tactics to force Jane Doe to act against her will, she was also unwillingly drugged with alcohol and unknown substances,” the complaint claims. In April 2022, Combs forced her to have sex with him without her consent at his Los Angeles home, the complaint alleges.
That spring, during a visit to see Combs in Miami, she claimed “she woke up and her feet were purple and bruised and she had a bite mark on her heel” and did not know how she sustained those injuries, the complaint claims.

In July 2022, Combs forced her to come to his Los Angeles home, where he made her ingest an unknown substance she later learned contained ketamine, the complaint alleges.
Shortly after, she took a pregnancy test, which turned out to be positive, alleging that an associate of Combs’ “harassed” her and insisted she have an abortion, the complaint claims. The woman said she later suffered a miscarriage and didn’t speak to Combs or his team for three months. In late 2022, Combs began communicating with her again, allegedly forcing her to travel with him, it claims.
“At every visit,” the complaint alleges, Combs “would make her ‘perform a show’ for him, and “would ply her with alcohol and substances until she passed out.” She would wake up with bruises and injuries, she alleges. This pattern of behavior allegedly continued until July 2024. During this four-year period, Combs “would consistently pressure Jane Doe (into) adding other men and women into the bedroom,” even though she said she didn’t want others there, the complaint claims.
Combs and “his agents at his request would record sexual encounters with Jane Doe without her permission,” the complaint claims. These incidents left her with anxiety, depression and fear for her safety. Combs’ attorney did not respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.
