Jessie and D’Lila Combs, the 18-year-old twin daughters of Sean “Diddy” Combs, celebrated their high school graduation from Sierra Canyon School in Chatsworth, California. The ceremony took place amid their father’s ongoing federal trial on serious criminal charges.

The twins shared photos on social media, proudly displaying their diplomas and wearing matching blue caps and gowns. They received diamond necklaces and bracelets from their older brother, Justin Dior Combs. Siblings Christian Combs, Quincy Brown, and 2-year-old Love also joined the celebration.

The graduation follows their recent attendance at senior prom, where they wore matching red gowns.

Sean Combs, 55, has been in federal custody at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center since his arrest in September 2024. He faces charges including racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and transportation for prostitution. Combs has pleaded not guilty to all charges.

The trial began on May 5, 2025, with jury selection, and opening statements and witness testimony commenced on May 12. Judge Arun Subramanian has projected that the trial should conclude by July 4.

Key witnesses have testified, including rapper Kid Cudi, who alleged that Combs broke into his home and later firebombed his car in retaliation for dating Combs’ former girlfriend, Cassie Ventura. Other testimonies have described alleged physical assaults and controlling behavior by Combs.

Prosecutors have accused Combs of coercing women into drug-fueled sexual encounters, referred to as “Freak Offs,” and using his influence to silence victims through blackmail and violence. The defense argues that the relationships were consensual and that the accusations are financially motivated.

Family Support Amidst Adversity

Despite the legal challenges, Combs’ family has shown support. During a court hearing, Combs turned toward the courtroom’s spectators to face his mother and gave a thumbs-up toward her and two other supporters. His children have visited him in jail, and their presence at his hearings underscores the family’s unity during this difficult time.

As Jessie and D’Lila embark on their next chapter, their father’s legal battle continues to unfold, drawing national attention and scrutiny.
