Christian Combs, son of rapper, producer, and businessman Sean “Diddy” Combs, was recently accused of sexual assault in a new lawsuit. A woman has alleged that Combs’ son, Christian, sexually assaulted her while she was working on his dad’s yacht. The 31-page lawsuit was filed in Los Angeles Superior Court.
His father, who is facing a federal sex trafficking probe, is also named in the lawsuit for aiding the alleged assault. The complaint is on behalf of 25-year-old Grace O’Marcaigh.
O’Marcaigh, who worked as a bartender and the only onboard steward for the yacht, alleges that in the wee hours of 28 December, Christian Combs pressured her to have a shot of tequila. She “quickly suspected” that it had been mixed with drugs. Combs allegedly restricted her from going and forced her to perform oral sex on him.
