Christian “King” Combs, son of the rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs, is facing allegations of sexual assault, according to a lawsuit filed in a Los Angeles civil court.
The incident allegedly took place on a yacht during a family vacation in St Martin in 2022.
The plaintiff, Grace O’Marcaigh, claims that she was physically and sexually assaulted by Christian Combs. The lawsuit also implicates his father, Sean Combs, who is currently under investigation for federal sex trafficking, for allegedly facilitating the assault.
Recently, properties owned by Sean Combs were searched as part of the ongoing investigation. Their attorney, Arron Dyer, has dismissed the new allegations as “baseless and salacious”, composed of “fabricated untruths and irrelevant details”.
This is the latest in a series of grave sexual assault allegations against Sean Combs and now, his son.
O’Marcaigh, who was employed as a steward on the yacht, alleges that the luxury vessel was frequently filled with inebriated individuals, suspected sex workers, celebrities, and drugs. She suspects that her drinks, along with those of other women on board, may have been laced with drugs, as she observed people “losing their balance, panicking, or losing consciousness”, as stated in the court document.
Sean Combs, 54, is listed as a defendant in the lawsuit for “premises liability” as he was the one who chartered the luxury yacht. The court document accuses the rapper of transforming a supposed wholesome family outing into a debauched environment.
The lawsuit alleges that Christian Combs, 26, coerced O’Marcaigh into drinking tequila with him, and then turned “aggressive”, seizing her arm when she attempted to depart. She claims he fondled her and “began to kiss her neck, face, and hands.”
Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones, the Combs’s record producer who has lodged his own lawsuit against Sean Combs, was reportedly recording at the time. Transcripts are included in the lawsuit.
In a separate episode, O’Marcaigh alleges that Christian Combs attempted to coerce her into performing oral sex on him in the yacht’s cinema. She claims that a complaint she lodged with the ship’s captain was dismissed, and alleges that Sean Combs paid a substantial tip to the ship’s crew to suppress her complaint.
O’Marcaigh asserts that as a consequence of the alleged assault, her long-standing romantic relationship ended, and she has developed an eating disorder and is experiencing epileptic seizures.
