On Mother’s Day 2025, Sean “Diddy” Combs’s twin daughters, Jessie and D’Lila Combs, shared an emotional tribute to their late mother, Kim Porter, who tragically passed away in 2018. Reflecting on their loss, the 18-year-old sisters opened up about how difficult the past few years have been without Porter by their side.
Heartfelt Tribute on Mother’s Day
In a heartfelt Instagram post, Jessie and D’Lila expressed their longing for their mother, writing, “These last couple of years have been sooooo extremely difficult without you by our side. We really wish you were here for these years that we begin to grow and start to mature into young ladies.”
The twins, who are now young adults, continue to process their mother’s untimely death as they transition into adulthood. They shared a throwback photo of Porter, showing her pregnant and smiling next to a decorated Christmas tree, evoking fond memories of their childhood.
“We Miss You Every Single Day”
In their emotional tribute, Jessie and D’Lila penned a touching message: “Dear mommy, You were the best mommy anyone could’ve ever had and we are so blessed that God chose you to be our mommy. We miss you so very much every single day, and we wish you could be here with us today.”
They went on to express their commitment to honoring her memory: “We are going to follow in your footsteps and always make you proud. I hope you are up there celebrating this beautiful day with your mommy and grandma. We miss you all so much!!! Happy Mother’s Day to our Queen. 🕊️❤️.”
Kim Porter, who was 47 when she passed away, was the mother of Diddy’s three children, including Jessie and D’Lila, as well as Christian Combs, 27. The twins have maintained a close relationship with their father, despite the turmoil surrounding Diddy’s ongoing legal battles.
The Tragic Loss of Kim Porter
Kim Porter’s sudden death was confirmed in January 2019, with the Los Angeles County Coroner attributing it to lobar pneumonia. Diddy and Porter, who had split in 1999 but later reconciled, welcomed their twin daughters in 2006. The couple split for good in 2007 but maintained a co-parenting relationship, with Porter playing a central role in their children’s lives.
Diddy’s Legal Troubles Amid Family Tragedy
As the Combs family continues to mourn the loss of Kim Porter, Diddy faces his own challenges. The rapper’s trial, which began with jury selection on May 5, 2025, has drawn considerable media attention. Diddy is facing serious charges, including sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation for prostitution. He denies all allegations, maintaining his innocence.
The trial comes after Diddy’s arrest in 2024, following multiple accusations of sexual assault, including from his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura. Ventura filed a lawsuit accusing Diddy of abuse during their on-and-off relationship from 2007 to 2018. Although the two settled out of court, the case continues to hang over Diddy’s head as he faces his day in court.
Combs Family Unity Amid Legal Challenges
Through it all, Diddy’s children have stood by their father. Despite his legal issues, the twins, along with their siblings, have been vocal in their support for Diddy. In a statement released in November 2023, the family expressed their devastation over the ongoing situation, affirming their loyalty to their father during this tumultuous time.
As Diddy’s trial unfolds, Jessie and D’Lila remain focused on honoring their late mother’s memory while navigating the complex emotions tied to their father’s legal troubles. Their Mother’s Day tribute serves as a poignant reminder of the deep bond they shared with Kim Porter and the ongoing journey of healing as they continue to grow into young women.
