Diddy was the recipient of the Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2022 BET Awards, and he gave a lengthy speech while accepting the honor. At one point, Diddy made sure to thank âeverybody that played a part in [his] life.â He said he couldnât possibly name everyone, but there was one surprising person who he did reference by name. âI was in a dark place for a few years,â Diddy admitted. âI have to give a special shoutout, thank you, love, to the people that was really there for me.â He named a few close people in his life, then added, âAnd also Cassie, for holding me down in the dark times, love.â
Diddy and Cassie dated on and off for more than 10 years before splitting in 2018. After the split, she got together with Alex Fine, who she married in Sept. 2019. The couple has two children together. Meanwhile, Diddy is currently dating City Girls rapper, Yung Miami (Caresha Romeka Brownlee). Caresha was in the audience at the BET Awards, proudly holding up a sign that read âGO PAPI!â as Diddy took the stage. Fans on Twitter were outraged that Diddy mentioned Cassie in his speech while Caresha was sitting right in front of him.
However, she didnât seem to be bothered by the situation. Yung Miami retweeted a shady message about Diddy not mentioning Caresha in his speech, to which she responded, âGirl please!â Careshaâs City Girls bandmate, JT, also retweeted the message, writing, âB*** donât play crazy. Not a b**** that can be seen touched and identified trying to viralâŚok, alright.â
Diddy confirmed his relationship with Yung Miami earlier this month. During an interview, he said that his actual relationship status was âsingle,â but revealed that heâd been going on dates with Caresha. âWeâre dating,â he said. âWe go have dates. Weâre friends. We go to exotic locations. We have great times.â
Just days later, though, he released a song that seemingly referenced his relationship with Cassie, as well. The song, titled âGotta Move On,â is about realizing a relationship is over and thereâs no chance at reconciliation. âShe donât want my love, I guess I gotta move on, I guess I came a little too strong, I guess she donât want my love, I guess I got to move on,â Diddy sings on the track.
