Sean "Diddy" Combs was hospitalized. The rapper also allegedly participated in the fight

Former star in solitary confinement?

The rapper's entourage told Variety that they knew about the reports of hospitalization. A detailed course of events is being established. “Sean's health and well-being are of the utmost importance to us,” he said.

Prison officials did not comment on the case, citing inmates' privacy and security concerns. According to reports from the Los Angeles Times and TMZ, Combs was placed in solitary confinement after returning from hospitalization.

Privileges in prison

The musician is serving a 50-month prison sentence after being convicted in 2025 of two cases of transporting people for the purpose of prostitution. His stay at Fort Dix became public in late September, when NBC News described the alleged privileges he was granted behind bars. According to these reports, the musician had access to smuggled mobile phones, which he used to browse Instagram and sexual photos received from his ex-partner. On weekends, he was also supposed to receive alcohol smuggled by the guards. After the publication of this information, prison authorities punished him for "disturbance of order" and took away 41 days of his reduced sentence for good behavior.

As a result, Combs' expected release date was moved from January 21 to March 2, 2028. This is not the only incident that drew attention to his stay in prison: in July, the musician was involved in a fight with another inmate. However, there is no information indicating that this incident was related to the current head injury.

These aren't Combs' only legal problems. Last week, a judge ordered him to pay NBCUniversal $477,700 in legal fees after losing a defamation lawsuit seeking $100 million in damages over the documentary "Diddy: The Making of a Bad Boy."
