Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ Relationship Timeline: Jennifer Lopez, Misa Hylton

Diddy and Casandra “Cassie” Ventura struck up a romance in 2007, but didn’t confirm their relationship until 2012. Two years later, they sparked marriage rumors, but reportedly split in 2015.

They continued date on and off from 2015 to 2018 until they broke up for good.

In November, Cassie dropped a lawsuit accusing the record producer of abusing her for years after they met when she was 19.

“She found herself becoming numb to the abuse she was experiencing, and became completely in bondage to Mr. Combs’ demands,” the complaint revealed. “She began to blindly follow his instructions for fear of becoming the victim of another brutal beating.”

On the other hand, Diddy dismissed the claims in a statement through his lawyer, calling the accusations “offensive and outrageous.” Just a day after the filing, he confirmed that they had decided to settle the issues privately.

In May, a 2016 surveillance video made the rounds online showing Diddy physically assaulting Cassie during an altercation at a California hotel.
