Diddy invited Prince William and Harry to over 10 parties, claims ex-publicist amid sex scandal

"Diddy was obsessed with Prince Harry and Prince William," reveals former publicist as legal issues mount.

Sean 'Diddy' Combs allegedly invited Prince William and Prince Harry to over 10 of his infamous parties, according to his former publicist, Rob Shuter. 

Speaking to 'BBC News', Shuter, who worked for the rapper from 2002 to 2004, said, "Diddy was obsessed with Prince Harry and Prince William. He thinks of himself as a king, so it makes perfect sense that he would like to have two princes in his entourage." 

Despite his numerous attempts, including offering to cover the cost of their travel, accommodation, and security, Shuter revealed that the royal brothers never accepted the invitations. 

"They were never part of his world," he said. Shuter added that Diddy kept framed pictures of the two princes in his New York home, despite their refusal to attend his events.

While Shuter did not clarify if the invitations were for Diddy's famous "White Parties," held at his East Hampton home between 1998 and 2009, these events have now come under scrutiny amid serious allegations. 

Former staff have claimed that individuals were groomed into sex trafficking after working at these parties, and others have alleged that drinks were laced with drugs.

In 2007, Diddy met Prince William and Prince Harry at a charity concert held in memory of their late mother, Princess Diana, at Wembley Arena.

Diddy is currently facing charges of sex trafficking and racketeering, with recent lawsuits accusing him of drugging and raping victims, including minors. 

His legal troubles have escalated as lawyer Tony Buzbee announced a second batch of lawsuits. Buzbee stated, "We expect to be filing cases weekly naming Mr. Combs and others as defendants as we continue to gather evidence and prepare the filings."

The lawsuits allege that Diddy is responsible for numerous acts of sexual exploitation, including the assault of a 13-year-old girl in 2000 and a man in 2022. 

Buzbee claims that Diddy's actions date back over two decades, with many of the most recent incidents occurring in 2022. "The egregious conduct set out in the lawsuits occurred in New York, Los Angeles, and Las Vegas," Buzbee explained. He also revealed that more than 100 victims have come forward.

Despite the mounting allegations, Diddy’s legal team has firmly denied the accusations. "Mr. Combs emphatically and categorically denies as false and defamatory any claim that he sexually abused anyone, including minors," Diddy’s lawyer, Erica Wolff, stated. 

She added that he "looks forward to proving his innocence and vindicating himself in court, where the truth will be established based on evidence, not speculation."

The ongoing investigation continues as more victims share their stories, with lawsuits being filed across various states, including California, New York, and Florida.
