Sean “Diddy” Combs’ ex-girlfriend allegedly pushed for the rapper to go to rehab after noticing health effects from heavy drug use.
During Jane’s cross-examination Tuesday, Diddy’s defense lawyer, Teny Geragos, asked about drug use. Jane, testifying under a pseudonym, said she knew he consumed drugs when she first met the rapper. However, she claimed she didn’t know how much.
Jane testified that on the way to the Turks and Caicos Islands, Jane saw Diddy’s eyes and teeth, noting that he wasn’t taking good care of himself. According to Jane, Diddy appeared jaundiced, his gums were gray and hands were shaky from over -consuming alcohol.
Jane said she spoke to him about rehab and suggested a trip to Thailand. “What the h—, you think I need rehab?” Jane claimed Diddy said at the time. She admitted she wanted Combs to be healthier during the cross-examination. Jane said in the beginning of their relationship, she was with someone who was overdoing the partying.

During cross-examination on Tuesday, Jane testified Diddy was upfront with her about dating multiple women at the start of their relationship in 2021. She explained the rapper was “polyamorous” and she was okay with that at the time. She testified at first she didn’t mind because she was just getting to know Diddy.
As her emotions for the rapper grew deeper, her feelings changed. “What was hard for me was the imbalance and the treatment…” Jane told Diddy’s defense lawyer. She continued that it was difficult when publicly it looked like Diddy was in a monogamous relationship with someone else.
After the trip to the Turks and Caicos Islands, Combs allegedly flew in other women. Jane testified that it was shocking. She called the woman a “hoe.” She admits to also using the terms brothel and escort.
“I was really feeling my man and wanted him to be mine,” she said on the stand.

Diddy paid Jane’s rent through their “love contract,” according to her testimony. The ex-girlfriend told the prosecution that she felt obligated to perform at “hotel nights” for the rapper because he had threatened to stop paying for her home. For “hotel nights,” Jane claimed she was expected to dress in lingerie and have sex with other men in front of the rapper.
Jane testified Tuesday during her cross-examination that she would tell Diddy she did not want to participate in “hotel nights” and Combs would be dismissive.
She told the defense that she definitely thought the rapper would use the rent as a “tool.”

Judge Arun Subramanian denied Diddy’s request for a mistrial Tuesday morning ahead of the cross-examination of the rapper’s ex-girlfriend.
Jurors heard testimony last week from Cassie Ventura’s friend, Bryana “Bana” Bongolan, who claimed Diddy dangled her off a 17th floor balcony in September 2016. Portions of her testimony were questioned after Bana couldn’t remember details of the alleged incident, including what drugs she was on at the time.
Diddy’s legal team argued that the prosecution knowingly presented false testimony to the court in a letter filed June 7 and obtained by Fox News Digital.
Diddy’s legal team wrote that Cassie and Bana each provided “demonstrably false” evidence about the balcony allegation to the court, and then “doubled down, using this false testimony to obtain a ruling admitting inadmissible hearsay evidence about it as well, all to present a false narrative to the jury.”

However, the federal judge ruled there was no interference. Judge Subramanian noted the defense was able to, and did, attack Bongolan’s testimony to undermine her credibility. According to the judge, there was no prejudice to an exhibit that had helped the defense’s case.
Diddy’s defense argued the issue could not be raised before Bongolan took the stand, and it’s obvious she perjured herself. The defense insisted there is no basis that the government wasn’t aware this testimony was false.
The prosecution said there wasn’t perjury and Bongolan’s testimony could be explained by confusion, mistakes or faulty memory. The government pointed out Bongolan admitted she didn’t remember all the details.

Following Bongolan’s testimony, Didddy’s ex-girlfriend Jane took the stand. Testifying under a pseudonym, she told the jury about meeting the “Last Night” rapper in 2020. The two began their romantic relationship in 2021 and dated until his September 2024 arrest.
According to Jane, she was forced to participate in “hotel nights.” During these sessions, which could last anywhere from 24 hours to multiple days, she was allegedly expected to have sex with other men while Diddy watched.

Jane was dating Diddy when Cassie’s sexual abuse lawsuit was made public. She claimed she read three pages that showcased a similar experience to hers.
“I was reading these pages, and they felt like a nightmare,” she told the jury. Jane began to cry on the stand, saying she had a lot of sympathy for Cassie. “I can’t believe I’m reading my own story,” she recalled thinking at the time.
Jane testified from Thursday through Monday. Her cross-examination began Tuesday.
