Kim Porter's Children Refute Controversial Memoir Attributed to Late Model

In a recent development, the children of the late Kim Porter have publicly refuted claims surrounding a controversial book allegedly penned by their mother. The publication, which appeared on Amazon approximately one year ago, purports to reveal intimate details about Porter's relationship with music mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs.

Quincy, Christian, Jessie, and D'Lila, Porter's children, issued a collective statement via Instagram, firmly declaring the book a fabrication. "Claims that our mom wrote a book are simply untrue," they asserted, emphasizing that anyone claiming to possess a manuscript is misrepresenting themselves.

The book in question, titled "Kim's Lost Words: A journey for justice, from the other side...," was independently published on Amazon shortly before Combs' arrest in New York and the unsealing of an indictment against him. This timing has raised eyebrows and fueled speculation about the book's contents and origins.

Porter, who passed away in November 2018 at the age of 47, was a model and actress known for her appearances in TV shows like "Wicked Wicked Games." Her autopsy report attributed her death to pneumonia, classifying it as due to natural causes. However, the controversial book suggests foul play, a claim vehemently rejected by Porter's children.

The publication, which briefly topped Amazon's bestseller list, contains allegations of physical abuse and sexual coercion allegedly committed by Combs. These claims have not been substantiated, and Porter's children have not directly addressed the criminal case against Combs in their statement.

Todd Christopher Guzze, who goes by the name Chris Todd, has been identified as the author behind the book. Guzze, describing himself as an "investigative producer, author and journalist," claims to have received materials from individuals close to Porter and Combs, including a flash drive, documents, and tapes.

It's worth noting that Combs, also known as "Diddy," has had a significant impact on the music industry. He founded Bad Boy Records in 1993 and has won three Grammy Awards throughout his career. As of 2024, his net worth is estimated at over $900 million, reflecting his success in various business ventures, including the clothing lines Sean John and Sean by Sean Combs, and the vodka brand Cîroc.

Porter, born in Columbus, Georgia, in 1971, was discovered by modeling agent Sarah Doukas at age 17. She had an on-again, off-again relationship with Combs for over a decade, during which they had three children together. Porter also had a son, Quincy, from a previous relationship with Al B. Sure!, though Quincy was largely raised by Combs.

"We are deeply saddened that the world has made a spectacle of what has been the most tragic event of our lives. Our mother's cause of death has been established for years, and there was no foul play."

The controversy surrounding this book highlights the complex intersection of celebrity, privacy, and posthumous publications. As the situation unfolds, it serves as a reminder of the enduring impact of Porter's life and the ongoing public interest in her relationship with one of the music industry's most prominent figures.
