Cassie Ventura — who dated Sean “Diddy” Combs on and off for years — was photographed with what appears to be more facial bruising in recently unearthed photos from January 2013. In the

resurfaced pics, the “Me & U” singer and her now-ex were surrounded by a group of people as they arrived at a party in Kingston, Jamaica. Ventura was pictured at the front of the group

snapshot, sporting black sunglasses that seemingly hid a fading bruise over her brow and another near her eye. She also had what looks like another fading bruise on the side of her shaved

head, a hairstyle that Diddy allegedly urged her to get back in 2009. EXPLORE MORE As for Combs, the music mogul — clad in an all-black ensemble and matching sunglasses — was pictured

standing close to Ventura throughout the evening. In some of the snaps, he could be seen counting money that had seemingly just been handed to him. Reps and lawyers for Ventura and Combs did

not immediately respond to Page Six’s requests for comment. The resurfaced pictures are just some of many that show the singer, now 38, allegedly bruised and battered throughout her

complicated, years-long relationship with Combs. The singer accused Combs, 54, of rape, sex trafficking and abuse in November 2023. At the time, she filed a lawsuit that detailed how the Bad

Boy Records founder allegedly forced her to have sex with male prostitutes while he filmed, physically abused her and supplied her with drugs. The alleged abuse continued until they broke

up for good in 2018. Despite vehemently denying the accusations and quietly settling the suit a mere 24 hours later, Diddy was forced to apologize after a horrifying surveillance video of

him brutally beating Cassie as she attempted to escape their hotel room in 2016 came to light in May. According to CNN, which obtained the security footage, the altercation occurred at the

now-closed InterContinental Hotel in Century City, Calif. The video showed the singer running out of a hotel room while hiding under a black hoodie. As she approached the elevators, Combs —

wearing nothing but a towel around his waist — ran after her, dragged her to the floor and kicked her violently. She was then dragged back to their hotel room, where it’s unknown when and if

she managed to escape. Following the release of the video, Diddy said on Instagram, “My behavior on that video is inexcusable. I take full responsibility for my actions in that video. I’m

disgusted.” He went on to say he was “disgusted then” when he “did it” and “disgusted now.” The music producer concluded his message by saying, “I went and I sought out professional help,

started going to therapy and rehab, had to ask God for his mercy and grace.” However, Ventura’s case opened the floodgates for a myriad of other alleged victims to come forward accusing

Combs of similar abuse in dozens of new lawsuits in recent months. WANT MORE CELEBRITY AND POP CULTURE NEWS? Start your day with Page Six Daily. THANKS FOR SIGNING UP! Since then, Combs was

arrested on Sept. 16 in New York City on charges of racketeering conspiracy; sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion; and transportation to engage in prostitution. After being denied

bail multiple times, Combs remains behind bars in a Brooklyn jail. Following the producer’s arrest, Texas-based lawyer Tony Buzbee announced he is representing over 120 victims, all who

claim to have been abused in one way or another by Combs. Twenty-five of those alleged victims were underage at the time of the alleged abuse. Combs and his legal team have vehemently denied

all of these allegations. The disgraced rapper’s trial is set to begin May 5, 2025. _IF YOU OR SOMEONE YOU KNOW IS AFFECTED BY ANY OF THE ISSUES RAISED IN THIS STORY, CALL THE SEXUAL
