Sean “Diddy” Combs and Cassie have settled a lawsuit in which Cassie accused the hip-hop mogul of rape, sex trafficking and physical abuse. The lawsuit outlined allegations of abuse dating back to 2005, when Cassie was 19 years old. The resolution, reached a day after the allegations surfaced, was confirmed in statements from both parties, with the settlement amount undisclosed. “I have decided to resolve this matter amicably on terms that I have some level of control. I want to thank my family, fans and lawyers for their unwavering support,” Cassie said in a statement. Combs, in a separate statement, wished “Cassie and her family all the best”. His attorney also emphasized that settling the lawsuit does not imply wrongdoing and reiterated Combs’ denial of the claims.
