Woman Suing Diddy For Wrongful Termination Claims To Be Kim Porter’s Niece

Music mogul Diddy is calling the lawsuit filed by the woman suing him for wrongful termination a shakedown. A woman being called Jane Roe in court documents who claims to be the niece of Diddy’s late ex, Kim Porter, is suing the music executive for dismissing her when she requested maternity leave.

Roe claimed that she was hired as a nanny to the former couple’s twins when Porter died unexpectedly in 2018 of pneumonia. According to TMZ, Jane claims that she was fired 2 years later after she requested maternity leave. Roe said that she was let go for being pregnant and unmarried and is seeking unspecified damages.

A Diddy spokesman told the outlet that the woman was not related to him or Porter and that the lawsuit was an attempt to extort him. The spokesman also claimed that Roe was hired as a part-time, temporary nanny for the twins following Porter’s death and said her departure was “planned and agreed to” before her pregnancy announcement.

“This lawsuit is a meritless shakedown to extort money from Mr. Combs. Raven is not the niece of Kim Porter as she falsely alleges; nor is there any legal basis for this case to be filed under the anonymity as a ‘Jane Doe’. Raven was a part-time babysitter to the twins who Mr. Combs kept on the job back in 2018 to provide continuity for the twins following the untimely death of their mother. Mr. Combs graciously permitted Raven to live in his home with her son and treated them like ‘family.’ Her babysitting services were always intended to be temporary especially since the girls were getting older and spending most of the day at school.”

“In fact, Raven’s transition out of her role was planned and agreed to by her long before she even mentioned that she was pregnant. Mr. Combs will take swift and immediate action to protect his family against these false claims.”

Porter died tragically at the age of 47 in Toluca Lake, Calif., on Nov. 15, 2018. She and Diddy had three children, 15-year-old twin daughters Jessie James and D’Lila Star, and 24-year-old Christian King Combs.
