Yung Miami reveals her relationship with the controversial Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs was mutually beneficial as she wanted to become “important”, although she added she felt like she was an asset to the man accused of sexual trafficking.
The world was stunned when news broke that Combs’ homes in Florida and California were raided by federal agents after allegations of sexual assault, physical assault, abuse and human trafficking were made by his ex-partners, which the musician denies. Now another one of his ex-partners, Yung Miami (real name Caresha Brownlee), opened up on her relationship with him after they confirmed their romance in June 2022, and she added he gave her opportunities she wouldn’t have otherwise had.
“I think that I was able to come in and be a brand ambassador for DeLeon [Tequila] and take it to a whole ‘nother level,” she said. “I feel like I was an asset. I honestly feel like with Diddy … I don’t know what his intentions [were] – whether it was business, or he really liked me – but when he got with me, he really saw something in me.
“I feel like I came into his world, and I was able to turn everything he had going on up a notch. With him, he was able to take my career to the next level. I did the Met Gala, I got ready for Vogue.” Combs’ properties were raided by the Department of Homeland Security just months after Cassie Ventura accused the 54-year-old of rape and abuse in November 2023 through their decade-long relationship.
Within 24 hours of Ventura filing a lawsuit, she and Combs settled before seven more lawsuits from various people appeared and accused him of drugging, raping and trafficking women through multiple decades. One of the ‘suits, filed by producer Rodney “Lil’ Rod” Jones, listed Yung Miami as a sex worker in Combs’ employ but this was something she swiftly denied.
