Like so many other celebrities out there, Yung Miami has been trying to distance herself from Sean “Diddy” Combs as the music mogul continues to sit in prison.

As the Bad Boy Records founder’s former girlfriend, plenty of questions have swirled about what Yung Miami, whose real name is Caresha Brownlee, knew and what part she played in the crimes Diddy is accused of. But the “Rap Freaks” artist was linked to another man after she posted about their night out before deleting it.

Here’s which NFL star she was romantically linked to before the athlete began dating another famous rapper.

After the allegations against Diddy and what happened at his infamous freak-off parties came to light, Yung Miami said she was only celebrating him when everyone else was.

“I met him when he was in another era. I met Diddy when the world was celebrating him and giving him his flowers,” she explained on her podcast Caresha Please. 

Well, in late 2024, she was spotted celebrating someone else.

Yung Miami was seen at the same restaurant as New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs for his 31st birthday. She even shared a snap of the party on Instagram before deleting it. Paparazzi then caught her leaving the venue not long after Diggs’ exit as they tried to keep a low profile.

Diggs had been in a relationship with actress La’Shontae Heckard aka Tae Heckard for years, but they reportedly split after taking a break.

While rumors swirled about the football player and Yung Miami, neither confirmed if anything was going on between them. And in May 2025, Diggs and “Bodak Yellow” rapper Cardi B hard-launched their relationship on Instagram, finally putting to bed the chatter about Diggs and Diddy’s ex.

In September, a Jane Doe alleged that Diddy got her pregnant after drugging and assaulting her and claims the City Girls member “harassed” and called her repeatedly to make sure she was going to have an abortion. Yung Miami was also mentioned and linked to drug crimes in Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones’ suit filed in March 2024.

Diddy meanwhile, is currently being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn on charges of sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation to engage in prostitution as his trial continues. He has denied all the allegations against him.
