Their relationship spanned decades and was marked by love, heartbreak, and an unbreakable bond even after her tragic passing in 2018. As new revelations and reflections about their time together continue to emerge, the legacy of their connection remains a powerful force in Diddy’s life, both publicly and privately. Now, we’re taking a look at how much Diddy agreed to pay Porter in child support for <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/sean-diddy-combs-son-christian-king-combs-explained-only-trusts-family.html/”>Christian “King” Combs</a>.</p>
<h2 class=”wp-block-heading” id=”h-sean-diddy-combs-agreed-to-pay-kim-porter-4-5-million-in-child-support-for-christian-king-combs”>Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs agreed to pay Kim Porter $4.5 million in child support for Christian ‘King’ Combs</h2>
<p id=”par-2_84″>Sean “Diddy” Combs and Kim Porter’s romance has earned new attention in the wake of Diddy’s arrest. Porter and Diddy dated on and off from the 1990s to 2007. Porter had her son, Quincy Brown, in 1991 with producer Al B. Sure! In 1998, Porter and Diddy welcomed their first child, Christian “King” Combs. In 2006, they welcomed twin daughters, D’Lila Star Combs and Jessie James Combs. Sadly, in 2018, Porter died from lobar pneumonia, leaving Diddy to raise the kids on his own.</p>
<p id=”par-3_43″>Just a year after Diddy and Porter welcomed Christian into the world, <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/kim-porter-revealed-felt-sean-diddy-combs-final-breakup.html/”>they broke up</a>, resulting in an intense custody battle for the child. In 2001, the <a href=”https://nypost.com/2001/12/06/p-diddy-ex-settles-for-4-5m-in-kid-support/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>New York Post</a> reported that Diddy agreed to pay Porter $4.5 million in child support. </p>
<p id=”par-4_17″>“I believe the matter is settled,” Porter’s lawyer said at the time. “We have a gentlemen’s agreement.”</p>
<p id=”par-5_17″>Diddy’s lawyer noted that the hip-hop mogul and Porter “put the child’s interest ahead of everything else.”</p>
<p id=”par-6_69″>The exact terms of the agreement remained confidential. However, a source with information regarding the case noted that Diddy agreed to give Porter a lump sum of $150,000, followed by $20,000 a month until Christian turned 21. Additionally, Diddy agreed to pay for college and insurance costs. He also covered Porter’s legal fees. Diddy took out a $2 million life-insurance policy on himself that would be payable to Christian.</p>
<p id=”par-7_22″>The parents agreed to go for joint legal custody of the child, but Christian primarily resided with Porter in Columbus, Georgia. </p>

<p id=”par-8_34″>Sean “Diddy” Combs and Kim Porter once discussed their relationship with <a href=”https://www.essence.com/news/no-ordinary-love-sean-diddy-combs-and-ki/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Essence</a>. Despite their longstanding relationship that involved three children, <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/sean-diddy-combs-shared-feel-ready-marry-kim-porter.html/”>Diddy explained how he never felt ready</a> to tie the knot with Porter. </p>
<p id=”par-9_52″>“I know she deserves to get married,” he said in the 2006 interview, “but I’m just not ready. It’s not a reflection on how much I love Kim. It’s that I’m just learning how to be a good boyfriend. When I’m finished with this step, I’ll move on to the next.” </p>
<p id=”par-10_45″>“You should end the piece like that,” Diddy told the interviewer, “with me talking about getting married. It’ll give hope to all the girls who fell in love with a player.” He then corrected himself as he walked away. “Ex-player,” he said. “Make that ex-player.”</p>

<p id=”par-12_90″>“One thing I never really told anybody, right when I found out the news, I was shocked,” Christian said, as seen in an <a href=”https://www.instagram.com/p/BvW5f3YgbcM/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=embed_video_watch_again” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Instagram</a> clip. “I didn’t know what to do. My whole world stopped. I was really down. And as soon as I got in the car, my song, ‘Love You Better,’ came on the radio. And I’m like, yo, nah, I know that’s her talking to me, making sure I know everything’s OK. That just made me feel like there’s still faith, and I just gotta keep pushing.”</p>
