Love.”
Back on November 16, 2023, the world was shook when the jaw-dropping lawsuit was filed and then announced the following day. Cassie had gone into the nitty-gritty of the abuse she allegedly suffered at the hands of her ex-boyfriend Diddy during the span of ten years during their on-and-off relationships. The height of which was the allegation that he raped her in 2018, which was the year their relationship came to an end.
