This week Cassie Ventura filed a lawsuit against her ex, Sean 'Diddy' Combs, accusing him of abusing her throughout their 11 year relationship [click here if you missed that].
Diddy accuses Cassie of blackmail, but allegedly offered eight figures for her silence...
From Deadline
“Mr. Combs offered Ms. Ventura eight figures to silence her and prevent the filing of this lawsuit,” Doug Wigdor told Deadline on Thursday after the singer and model filed a suit in federal court claiming Combs subjected her to “abuse, violence and sex trafficking” over the years. “She rejected his efforts and decided to give a voice to all woman who suffer in silence. Ms. Ventura should be applauded for her bravery.”
The statement today came after Combs’ attorney Ben Brafman responded to the filing by saying that his client “vehemently denies these offensive and outrageous allegations.”
The former Harvey Weinstein lawyer added: “For the past 6 months, Mr. Combs, has been subjected to Ms. Ventura’s persistent demand of $30 million, under the threat of writing a damaging book about their relationship, which was unequivocally rejected as blatant blackmail. Despite withdrawing her initial threat, Ms. Ventura has now resorted to filing a lawsuit riddled with baseless and outrageous lies, aiming to tarnish Mr. Combs’ reputation and seeking a pay day.”
