A representative for Sean “Diddy” Combs has defended the jailed rapper amid allegations he was caught consuming alcohol while in custody at FCI Fort Dix in New Jersey.
Kamme had been caught consuming a mixture of fermented Fanta, sugar and apples, sources said TMZ Friday.
The disgraced music mogul “has not violated any prison rules,” his spokesman said, adding that the music artist is seeking to stay clean while serving his sentence.
“His sobriety and self-discipline are priorities,” they said, adding, “and he takes them seriously.”
Combs’ rep also said that “this is only his first week at FCI Fort Dix and unfortunately rumors will surface during his time there.”
The rapper’s spokesperson also mentioned, “We ask the public and the press to give him the benefit of the doubt, the privacy to focus on his personal growth and the grace to move forward in peace.”
A separate statement was sent to Combs’ X account on Saturday, but it appears to have been removed.
It read: “The rumors that Mr. Combs was caught with alcohol are completely false. His only focus is to become the best version of himself and return to his family.”
The producer was sentenced last month to four years and two months in federal prison in connection with his July prostitution conviction.
On October 30, Sean “Diddy” Combs was transferred from the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn (MDC) to the Federal Correctional Institution, Fort Dix (FCI Fort Dix) in New Jersey.
