Kim Porter’s Children Deny Allegations of Tell-All Memoir
NEW YORK – Despite being a bestseller on Amazon, a book titled “Kim’s Lost Words: A journey for justice, from the other side…” allegedly penned by the late Kim Porter is facing backlash from her children. The book, which claims to reveal details of an abusive relationship with her longtime partner Sean “Diddy” Combs, was independently published on Amazon in early September.
Porter’s children; Quincy, Christian, Jessie, and D’Lila, have come forward to denounce the book as completely baseless and fabricated. In a joint statement on Instagram, they clarified that their mother did not write any such memoir and anyone claiming to possess a manuscript is misleading.
The children further expressed their disappointment over the book’s alleged contents of violence and false rumors. They described the situation as a misrepresentation of their mother’s memory and voiced their displeasure at the circulation of hurtful rumors.
Kim Porter passed away in November 2018 due to pneumonia at the age of 47, as confirmed by her autopsy report attributing her death to natural causes. The controversy surrounding the book erupted following Combs’ arrest in New York and the unsealing of an indictment against him.
The book, authored under the pseudonym Jamal T. Millwood “for” Kimberly A. Porter, claims foul play in Porter’s death and details disturbing acts allegedly committed by Combs. While the author’s true identity remains unknown, there are speculations linking it to the late rapper Tupac Shakur.
In an interview with Rolling Stone, the presumed author behind the pseudonym, Chris Todd, admitted receiving the book from music industry sources but could not verify its authenticity. He believes in the truth of its contents, adding to the mystery surrounding Porter’s untimely demise.
As the controversy continues to unfold, Porter’s children are standing firm in denying the legitimacy of the book and defending their mother’s memory from the sensationalized narrative.
