Diddy's Ex-Girlfriend Reveals $20 Million Settlement, Testifies About Relationship Trauma

Cassie Ventura, the ex-girlfriend of Sean "Diddy" Combs, concluded her testimony in a Manhattan courtroom today. Ventura revealed that she entered rehab in February 2023 due to the trauma she experienced in her relationship with Combs. "I didn't want to be alive," Ventura stated during her testimony, describing the emotional toll of the relationship. This testimony is part of an ongoing civil lawsuit that Ventura filed against Combs in November 2023. Today, for the first time, Ventura publicly disclosed that the lawsuit settled for $20 million. When asked by the prosecution why she chose that figure, Ventura replied, "I didn't really do any research. I just picked a number and thought it would alert him." Ventura's testimony is expected to continue tomorrow with cross-examination by the defense. The case highlights the serious issue of trauma in relationships and the importance of seeking help.
