Diddy’s Ex Kim Porter Died at 47 — Years Later, Her Father and Children Have Broken Silence on Their Relationship

Kim’s Sudden Death and Its Aftermath

They remained close until Kim’s death on November 15, 2018, when she was found dead in her Los Angeles home. She had been battling flu-like symptoms for several days, and her death was later attributed to pneumonia.

Kim, just 47 years old at the time, had reportedly gone to bed early the night before because she wasn’t feeling well, but when family members tried to wake her the next morning, she was unresponsive. Paramedics were called to the scene, where she was pronounced dead.

The news of her sudden passing left many heartbroken. Diddy, with whom she had shared much of her life and raised four children, released a brief statement.

“Sadly, I can confirm the passing of Kim Porter,” Diddy’s rep stated. “I ask that you give the families privacy at this time.” Reports indicated that Kim had been under treatment for her illness with saline and vitamins, but no illegal drugs were found in her system.

Authorities even looked into a recent trip she had taken to Africa, speculating if she could have contracted an illness during her travels, but no conclusive evidence pointed to this.

The tragedy of Kim’s death affected her children the most. At the time of her passing, her son Christian was 20 years old, and her twin daughters, D’Lila and Jessie, were just 11.
