In a resurfaced video clip from a 2016 episode of Khloé Kardashian's former talk show, "Kocktails With Khloé," Kourtney Kardashian vividly recounted her encounter at one of Sean "Diddy" Combs' notorious parties, amidst Diddy's ongoing legal trial. The segment featured Diddy as a guest, with Kourtney also joining in, confirming her years-long acquaintance with Diddy at his various events.
"The bash at Tao, the lavish dinner party – that was the night I got punched square in the face," reminisced Kourtney, now 46. Sitting beside her, Kylie Jenner expressed her fascination with hearing this anecdote. Meanwhile, Diddy appeared taken aback by the revelation.
Kourtney elaborated, "I found myself getting punched because I was queuing up for the bathroom at Tao, where Diddy had rented out the entire restaurant for his birthday bash. I politely asked the girl who cut in front of me, 'Excuse me, I’m next.' And without warning, she just swung her fist, straight into my face."
Diddy recalled having heard about someone getting punched at the party but didn't specify who. "I was alone, just standing there," continued Kourtney. "She [the assailant] went into the bathroom, and the next stall became available. I slipped in and broke down in tears, all by myself."
Khloé, 40, mentioned her attempt to track down the perpetrator, albeit unsuccessfully.
This reemergence of the clip coincides with Diddy's ongoing trial, which commenced earlier this month. Many of his parties, particularly the infamous "freak-offs," have been publicly scrutinized amidst his legal battle.
Diddy, now 55, was apprehended in September 2024 and charged with sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy, and transporting individuals for prostitution. He pleaded not guilty to all charges and has steadfastly denied all allegations.
"We are deeply disappointed with the U.S. Attorney’s Office’s decision to pursue what we believe is an unjust prosecution of Mr. Combs," stated Diddy's attorney, Marc Agnifilo. "While he is an imperfect person, he is not a criminal. Mr. Combs has cooperated fully with the investigation and voluntarily relocated to New York in anticipation of these charges. Please refrain from judgment until all facts are presented. These actions reflect an innocent man with nothing to conceal, and he eagerly awaits clearing his name in court."
Since his arrest, Diddy has been detained at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn. His four bail requests have been denied by Judge Arun Subramanian.
