Diddy has taken action to remove all of his Instagram posts, including his apology to Cassie, as he continues to battle additional lawsuits and accusations.
During the week of June 16, Sean Combs removed every photo and video from his Instagram account. Prior to making this decision, he made no press announcements or statements. Right now, it's unknown what motivated Combs to delete his Instagram account. But his tweets uploaded to X/Twitter, such as the one he made in December 2023 saying, "Enough is enough," are still there.
Just a few days have passed since Diddy, the founder of Bad Boy Records, was charged with beating Cassie Ventura because of her purported relationship with Kid Cudi.

Combs' former bodyguard Roger Bonds discussed an incident in which Puffy went through Ventura's phone and found her talking to Cudder during an interview with VladTV.
Bonds claimed that Diddy went to Cudi's house to confront him after growing furious at the idea of the two having sex. Diddy vented his resentment on someone else since the Man on the Moon singer wasn't home at the time.
He then allegedly physically assaulted Capricorn, a former employee of Ventura's who Combs thought was aware of Ventura's relationship with Kid Cudi.
“At that particular time, after that happened, Cassie wouldn’t come around and then, all of a sudden, Cassie came around and Diddy was upset,” Bonds explained. “He put hands on Capricorn because of that situation. Capricorn ended up leaving and suing him for it. He paid Capricorn $450,000 to keep her mouth shut.”
CNN unveiled video in May that showed Diddy hitting Cassie in a hotel in 2016. Combs "completely denied and rejected" all of the allegations made against him, including those made by his ex, months before the video was released. However, the video depicted a different, darker story, with the mogul losing his cool with Cassie and hitting her with objects from the house.
Diddy would later issue an apology to Cassie after the surveillance footage hit the internet, stating, “I take full responsibility for my actions in that video, I was disgusted then when I did it. I’m disgusted now. I went and I sought out professional help. I got into going to therapy, going to rehab. I had to ask God for his mercy and grace.”
Meredith Firetog, a legal representative for Ventura, released a statement following his statement, calling his apology “disingenuous,” saying “Combs’ most recent statement is more about himself than the many people he has hurt…When Cassie and multiple other women came forward, he denied everything and suggested that his victims were looking for a payday.
That he was only compelled to ‘apologize’ once his repeated denials were proven false shows his pathetic desperation, and no one will be swayed by his disingenuous words.”
