Kim Porter’s Children Say She Didn’t Write Bestselling Memoir About Diddy
As a seasoned film enthusiast who’s witnessed more than a handful of Hollywood dramas unfold, I can’t help but feel a sense of disbelief and sadness when I read about this alleged memoir by Kim Porter. The idea that someone would exploit another person’s life, especially one as tragic as hers, for personal gain is not only distasteful but also deeply saddening.
In a statement released on Tuesday, Kim Porter’s children clarified that contrary to reports suggesting she wrote a tell-all memoir about an abusive relationship with her ex-partner, Sean “Diddy” Combs, the late Kim Porter did not pen such a book.
Kim’s Lost Words: A quest for justice, seen from another perspective…” was self-published on Amazon around early September, more than a week before Combs’ arrest in New York and the public disclosure of the indictment against him. The book is said to be derived from Porter’s diary and notes.
In an Instagram post shared late Tuesday, Porter’s kids, Quincy, Christian, Jessie, and D’Lila publicly declared that the book is entirely fictitious.
“Claims that our mom wrote a book are simply untrue. She did not, and anyone claiming to have a manuscript is misrepresenting themselves,” the statement read. “Any so-called ‘friend’ speaking on behalf of our mom or her family is not a friend, nor do they have her best interests at heart.”
I, along with Christian, Jessie, and D’Lila, are the children of Porter and Combs, with Quincy being Porter’s son from a past relationship who was predominantly raised by Combs. We recently released a statement, which is our first since Combs was taken into custody. In our statement, we don’t explicitly comment on the ongoing legal case against him.
Probably due to the controversial depictions of violence towards Porter in the book, the children felt it necessary to address the spread of hurtful and baseless gossip regarding their parents’ relationship, and thus chose to express their views publicly.
In November 2018, Porter passed away at the age of 47 due to pneumonia, as stated in her autopsy report. This document concluded that her death was a natural occurrence. At the time of her passing, Combs expressed that they were not just best friends but something deeper, beyond even soul mates.
The book argues, in its “disclaimer” section, that Porter’s death was not a natural one but the result of suspicious circumstances. Her children lamented that the public has turned their family’s tragic incident into a spectacle, stating that the cause of her death had been known for years and there was no foul play involved.
The sneak peek of a compact book is filled with mistakes and flaws, portraying allegations against Combs involving physical violence, sexual pressure, and other violent acts. Initially released discreetly on Amazon, the $22 paperback gained significant attention after Combs’ arrest and the disturbing accounts in the indictment. It momentarily topped Amazon’s bestseller list but has since moved down the rankings.
In this book, the writer credited is Jamal T. Millwood, who is said to be writing on behalf of Kimberly A. Porter. However, some conspiracy theorists speculate that Millwood might actually be a pseudonym for the late rapper Tupac Shakur, after his 1996 shooting death was rumored to have been staged.
According to a report by Rolling Stone published on Monday, Chris Todd (whose real name is Todd Christopher Guzze) has claimed authorship of a pseudonymous work. Todd stated that he can’t confirm the book’s authenticity, having received a USB drive containing the book from two individuals within the music industry. He maintains his conviction in its truthfulness.
Todd was not immediately available for comment.
