Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs Had a 20-Foot Sculpture of Kim Porter Built to Show Her ‘Curvature’
Hip-hop mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs had several high-profile relationships through the years. And the public was well aware of his long-time romance with Kim Porter. Porter and Combs dated from the early ’90s to 2007 and had three kids together. Recently, exclusive photos show how Combs had a 20-foot sculpture of Porter in the backyard of his Los Angeles mansion.
Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs once discussed the 20-foot sculpture of Kim Porter’s body that he had in his backyard
Kim Porter was likely the greatest love of Sean “Diddy” Combs’ life. The on-again, off-again couple started dating in the early ’90s and broke up in 1999. In 1998, the couple welcomed a baby boy, Christian Casey. Combs moved on with Jennifer Lopez for two years and went back to Porter in 2003. Porter and Combs then had twins, D’Lila Star and Jessie James, in 2006. The couple split one final time in 2007. Porter died in 2018 from lobar pneumonia, and the exes remained committed co-parents until her death.
DailyMail.com obtained exclusive photos of a 20-foot chrome sculpture resembling a woman’s body. The sculpture is cut off at the knees and neck and looms over the rose gardens in the backyard of Combs’ Los Angeles mansion. In the past, Combs explained that the sculpture was a monument of Porter’s body.
During an Instagram livestream with Fat Joe in 2020, Combs explained that he had the sculpture made three years before Porter’s death. According to Combs, the decision came after he went on a “spiritual retreat.”
Fat Joe asked Combs if the sculpture allowed him to feel like Porter was still with him.
“Without a doubt,” Combs answered, “because, look, you can see the curvature, you know what I’m saying? My baby had a little badonkadonk.”
Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is trying to sell his LA mansion
Homeland Security raided two of Sean “Diddy” Combs’ properties in March 2024 — months before the mogul’s arrest in September 2024. Combs put his LA mansion up for sale in September 2024. While the home has many appealing features, including the sculpture of Kim Porter, he’s allegedly having trouble selling it.
Real estate sources told TMZ in November 2024 that Combs had “only a few” potential buyers on the property. A married couple allegedly looked at the home but felt “creeped out.” One source noted there’s an “ick factor” associated with the house due to the allegations against Combs. Additionally, realtors told the news outlet that Combs had a “ridiculous” asking price of $61.5 million.
The hip-hop mogul said losing Kim Porter ‘broke’ his heart ‘forever’
Sean “Diddy” Combs and Kim Porter weren’t dating when Porter died in 2018. However, Combs later clarified that he loved her. When she died it “broke” his heart “forever.”
“I always said that I can’t make a hit record unless my heart is broken. It’s just like a vulnerable state that you’re in, and so, when I lost Kim, it broke my heart forever,” Combs told Entertainment Tonight in September 2023. “I just wanted to turn it into something positive, you know what I’m saying?”
The media outlet asked Combs if he believed he’d find love again. “I still believe that I will,” Combs answered. “I’m not looking at it in a negative way. I just don’t know what the future holds, you know? So I gotta be happy for the love that I felt. I can’t chase the love that I had.”
