Sean “Diddy” Combs‘ sons Justin and Christian “King” Combs marked Father’s Day amid the disgraced rapper’s ongoing sex trafficking trial.
Justin, 31, shared a black-and-white video of himself and his dad on Sunday, June 15. “HAPPY FATHER’S DAY POPS THANK YOU FOR GIVING ME LIFE & ALWAYS BEING PRESENT!” he wrote in the caption. “MY SUPER HERO! I’M W YOU 4EVER NO MATTTER WHAT!! MISS YOU & LOVE YOU.”
He shared the same footage via his Instagram Story with the same message. (Justin’s mom, Misa Hylton, supported the Father’s Day post with a red heart in the comments section.)
In a separate tribute, Christian, 27, posted a throwback photo of himself and Diddy posing on a red carpet. “Happy Fathers Day Pops!! I Love you & miss you !!! We waiting for you at 🏡,” he wrote.

In addition to being a rapper and entrepreneur, Diddy is the proud dad to seven children. The rapper started his family in 1993 when he and fashion designer Misa Hylton welcomed a baby boy. Diddy later moved on with model Kim Porter. The twosome had an on-again, off-again relationship from 1994 to 2007, during which […]
Diddy shared Christian with late ex Kim Porter, who died in 2018. The pair were also the parents of twin daughters Jessie and D’Lila, 18. (Porter welcomed son Quincy Brown with Al B. Sure! before her death.)
The music mogul also shares daughter Chance Combs, 19, with Sarah Chapman and daughter Love, 2, with Dana Tran.
Like her brothers, Chance shared a heartfelt message to Diddy alongside a black-and-white photo on Sunday. “Missing you today on Fathers Day💙,” she captioned the Instagram upload. “My love for you is beyond! Not a day goes by that I don’t think of you and miss you. I’m forever grateful for all the beautiful moments we shared. I miss you so much and love you and can’t wait to hug you 💕.”
Diddy’s trial began in May following his September 2024 arrest on charges of sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy and transportation to engage in prostitution. He pleaded not guilty to all charges and has denied all allegations against him.
“We are disappointed with the decision to pursue what we believe is an unjust prosecution of Mr. Combs by the U.S. Attorney’s Office,” Diddy’s attorney Marc Agnifilo said in a statement at the time of his arrest. “He is an imperfect person, but he is not a criminal. To his credit, Mr. Combs has been nothing but cooperative with this investigation and he voluntarily relocated to New York last week in anticipation of these charges. Please reserve your judgment until you have all the facts. These are the acts of an innocent man with nothing to hide, and he looks forward to clearing his name in court.”
The trial, taking place in New York City, is expected to continue through early July.
Throughout his legal ordeal, Diddy’s children have stood by his side. Last month, Justin and Hylton, 52, were spotted attending the opening of his trial. Diddy’s mom, Janice Combs, was also seen at the courthouse.
In October 2024, Diddy’s children issued a statement following his arrest. “The past month has devastated our family. Many have judged both him and us based on accusations, conspiracy theories and false narratives that have spiraled into absurdity on social media,” they shared via Instagram. “We stand united, supporting you every step of the way.”
Their statement concluded: “We hold onto the truth, knowing it will prevail, and nothing will break the strength of our family. WE MISS YOU & LOVE YOU DAD.”
