A Guide to Sean Combs’ Kids, Partners, Parents, and Siblings.

Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ family tree is complicated and extensive, with seven kids and four mothers of his children.

Six months after receiving the Global Icon Award at the 2023 MTV Video Music Awards, Sean “Diddy” Combs is receiving publicity for a far different reason.

The longtime rapper and music producer saw his Miami and LA homes raided by federal agents in connection to sexual assault allegations and the solicitation and distribution of illegal narcotics and firearms.

In the process of securing Diddy’s Miami compound, Homeland Security officers handcuffed two of Diddy’s sons, Justin and Christian Combs, in “overzealous and overtly militarized force,” according to one of Diddy’s former partners, Misa Hylton, who criticized the officers’ tactics on Instagram. This has led many fans to wonder about Diddy’s family. Here’s your guide to the Diddy family tree. Let’s start with his children’s mothers:

Misa Hylton dated Diddy in the early ’90s while he interned at NYC’s Uptown Records. The pair had one child, Justin Combs, on December 30, 1993. After breaking up, the “Last Night” rapper and fashion designer remained on good terms.

Hylton has a hip-hop legacy, too. In the ’90s, she styled R&B and hip-hop artists like Lil’ Kim and Mary J. Blige. Now 51 years old, she oversees the Misa Hylton Fashion Academy, which educates and mentors young people seeking to work in fashion. On Instagram, Hylton describes herself as a “Mother, Lifestyle Architect, Fashion Designer, Creative, Founder of Misa Hylton Fashion Academy, Management, Certified Life Coach.”
