MO MONEY, MO PROBLEMS

The woman alleges she was let go because she apparently set a bad example to P Diddy’s twins by being an unmarried pregnant woman. Reps for Diddy deny the allegations.

A nanny claiming to be the niece of Kim Porter, the late ex-girlfriend and mother of P Diddy’s three children, is suing the multiplatinum music producer, alleging she was fired for asking for maternity leave in 2020. The woman, identified only as Jane Roe in court documents, says she watched Diddy’s twins, D’Lila and Jessie, full-time after Porter died in 2018, moving into the family’s estate and becoming responsible for the girls’ 24/7 care. In Aug. 2020, Roe fell pregnant and requested time off for maternity leave. She alleges Diddy’s reps told her she was being let go because she “purportedly set a bad example” for the girls by being pregnant and unmarried. A spokeswoman for Diddy denied the allegations, calling the lawsuit a “meritless shakedown to extort money” by a “part-time babysitter,” who had no familial relationship to Porter. She maintained that Roe’s removal from the role minding the teens was planned and agreed to “long before she even mentioned that she was pregnant.”
