For 17 years, the identical twins got to live a charmed life, until November last year when Cassie Ventura filed a lawsuit against Diddy. And now their entire world has been shaken to its very core.
With the passing of their mother Kim Porter in 2018 means the twins are left without any parent for the time being, with their father in custody. What’s more, the close relationship Jessie and D’Lila share with their father is no secret.
The Twins Relationship With Their Father
They got to dance backup for Diddy at the VMAs last year in September when he got to receive the Global Icon Award. And right afterward Jessie and D’Lila lavished praise on their Dad in an Instagram post calling him their hero and describing him as amazing and iconic.
Jessie and D’Lila have also moved to protect themselves from negative comments and limited them under their prom posts which had a more positive vibe. But the truth is the twins cannot protect themselves completely and some commenters are willing to go a lot further. Such as claiming Diddy was responsible for Kim’s passing, for starters…
If you recall, the twins’ mother, who is also the mother of Quincy and Christian Combs, passed away in 2018 due to pneumonia. And it goes even deeper…Because fans are far from the only ones who are suspicious, a few important people are too.
Kim Porter’s Death
One of them happens to be Kim’s ex-husband Al B. Sure, the father of Jessie and D’Lila’s eldest brother Quincy, who has also called for investigations into her passing. As a matter of fact, Al called it a tragic case in an Instagram post and alleged that Kim had been set to expose Diddy in the same way Cassie, his ex did.
Al went even further, alleging that those involved in the cover-up of Kim’s passing might also be involved in the passing.
The Children Speak Out On Allegations
In September, the twins and their brothers Quincy and Christian released an Instagram post. In it, they stated there had been no foul play in their mother’s passing. The brothers and sisters also debunked claims their mother had written a tell-all book, finally asking for respect for her legacy.
Those wild claims are far from the only issues Jessie and D’Lila are having to face. The twin sisters also have to deal with the pain of knowing their father has been denied bail and the new reality of only being allowed a brief phone call to speak to him.That said, there has been a silver lining of sorts where they got to visit Diddy less than a month after his arrest in the company of their grandmother, Janice Combs.
The Twins Visit Their Father In Prison
When they arrived at the federal court for the hearing on 10 October, crowds of spectators and journalists were ready and waiting. The twins however remained stoic in spite of the heckling holding hands and putting on a united show of support for their father along with their brothers.
And this is just the beginning. Because if Diddy is convicted he would face a minimum of 15 years in jail or life at the most. There is also the issue of what will happen to his immense empire built over decades and once estimated at one billion dollars. Should that crumble to dust, the twins may lose both their provider and protector who they love dearly…
And Diddy may not be the only one in hot water. Jessie and D’Lila’s brothers Justin Dior and Christian Combs have also been mentioned in the lawsuit. What that means is that there is a possibility that they too may end up behind bars meaning the girls may not only lose their father but two of their big brothers.
Future Plans
Kimora Lee Simmons, a close friend of their mother Kim, promised to protect the twins in the wake of disturbing evidence of Diddy subjecting ex-girlfriend Cassie to DV. Jessie and D’Lila definitely see Kimora as mom since she has cared for them since their own mother Kim passed away.
But we all know the saying that it takes a village to raise a child, or two teens in this case… So just who else is there looking out for the twins?
That person is none other than Kim’s bestie, Lawanda Lane who in an Instagram post in March promised to hold Kim down forever. Lawanda’s presence will definitely provide stability to Jessie and D’Lila who are in their final year of high school. According to The Sun US, the girls were recently spotted house hunting in LA with Lawanda…
Whatever happens, I hope they will be able to step into a brighter future than these turbulent times…
