Kim Porter and Sean 'Diddy' Combs broke up in 2007. Here's why she waited until he was out of town to leave him.

Kim Porter and Sean “Diddy” Combs broke up in 2007. They had parted ways before, and Porter said he continued to contact her dozens of times a day during their split. When she left him in 2007, she said she did it secretly. She didn’t think he would have let her leave otherwise.

Kim Porter said she left Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs in secret

When Porter decided she was going to leave Combs in 2007, she waited until he was out of town before packing up the house and leaving. She thought this was the only way to effectively leave him. 

“[T]here was no other way,” she told Essence. “You think he would have let me walk out the door? He wouldn’t have wanted me to go.”

She knew she had to be dramatic to make a statement. When they broke up in the 1990s, Combs called her dozens of times a day and continually showed up at her house unannounced. She wanted to avoid this.

“I wanted to be dramatic,” she said. “I wanted him to know I wasn’t breaking up with him for two weeks — or maybe leaving for two days. If I pack up everything — twins and all — it means I’m out! Puffy’s an action person, not a talk person. So I had to have an action. Telling him, ‘Babe, I’m leaving’ was not gonna do it.”

She said she realized she needed to look out for herself

Porter said she realized she had to leave Combs because she was no longer happy in the relationship. She had supported him for years, and she finally realized she had to do what was best for herself.

“I left because at this point in my life I want something different for myself,” she said. “I invested ten years, I have children, and I’ve always stood by him. But now it’s time for me and what I want to do for Kim.”

Kim Porter and Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs were friendly after their split

While Porter had no interest in being in a romantic relationship with Combs, she wanted to remain friendly. 

“You know how when two people go their separate ways, most of the time there’s animosity? It’s not like that with us,” she said. “Sean and I have this bond, this friendship. It’s not about ‘if you’re faithful to me, if I’m being faithful to you.’ We’re friends.”

They shared three children together, and Porter wanted to maintain a good relationship with Combs for their sake.

“I’m the person he can tell his innermost thoughts to and he’s that person for me. He still calls me every day and we talk. There’s no ill feeling or ‘I can’t stand you, I hate you, don’t call.’ There’s none of that,” she said. “We have three children together so that’s just not an option. We’re committed to our children even if we couldn’t commit to each other.”
