Sean 'Diddy' Combs is a father of 7: All about his family

Sean “Diddy” Combs returned to social media to wish fans a happy Easter just days after two of his properties were raided by Homeland Security as part of an ongoing investigation.

On March 31, Combs posted photos on Instagram showing his 17-month-old daughter, Love, whom he shares with Dana Tran, in colorful outfits.

“HAPPY EASTER from Baby Love,” Combs wrote in his caption, adding a heart emoji.

The rap mogul’s post is his first on Instagram since March 25 when federal agents with Homeland Security Investigations executed a search warrant on two of Combs’ homes in Los Angeles and Miami, four law enforcement sources told NBC News.

The searches took place amid accusations of sexual assault and harassment, sex trafficking, rape and physical abuse in a series of lawsuits by a former romantic partner, a producer and others filed since November 2023.

Combs is a father of seven children.

The rapper and producer is dad to sons Quincy, Justin, Christian, and daughters Chance, D’Lila, Jessie and baby daughter Love, born in 2022. They range in age from 11 months to 32 years old.

Diddy shared Jessie, D’Lila, Christian and Quincy with their mother, the late Kim Porter, who passed in 2018 from a lung infection. Justin Dior Combs is the son of Diddy and stylist Misa Hylton; Chance's mom is businesswoman Sarah Chapman, and he shares baby Love Sean Combs with model Dana Tran.

Who are Diddy's seven children?

"I can honestly say I'm the luckiest man in the world. I got three girls, three boys and they are really kind, great people," the rapper told People in 2017 before Love was born.

While Diddy has always been close to his older boys, he's also raved about being a girl dad to his younger daughters, including twins D’Lila Star and Jessie.

“Girls change the game,” Diddy gushed to People. “If you miss out on being a man and not having a daughter and really loving them, you missing out. Because it’s like, they teach me so much."

The never-married music star, who was raised by his single mom Janice Combs after his dad was killed in 1972, has credited his children's mothers with helping them become the people they are today.

"I’ve been truly blessed to have some great, incredible relationships that have afforded me these children by these very strong, intelligent, beautiful Black women,” he told People in 2017.

“The mothers of my children (are) my best friends. My hat goes off to them," he added.

In June 2022, Diddy opened up about being a dad in the wake of Kim Porter's death when he appeared on the “Caresha, Please” podcast. During his time on the program, he said that his exes had previously done most of the child-rearing while he served as a “part-time father.”

“Kim and Sarah and everybody had everything held down, and then man … you know … just losing Kim, it was just like I was a full-time father,” he said at the time.

“My life is really like going crazy right now,” he added. “Going from just being on the road and stuff to like actually having to raise three girls and never … I’ve never been in this situation, and you know, I guess God gave me some karma. Hit me three times … three times. I got three girls turning 16."

“I think I’ve been a sponge, and now I do so much,” he said.
