Donald Trump Jr. says ex-wife Vanessa was afraid of Diddy and doesn't believe his long-term girlfriend Kim Porter died of pneumonia

Donald Trump Jr has claimed that Sean 'Diddy' Combs' late long-term girlfriend Kim Porter was afraid of the rapper, adding he does not believe she died of pneumonia.

The former president's eldest son, 46, shared the unproven allegations in an appearance on the AKADEMIKS podcast this week, claiming his ex-wife Vanessa was good friends with Porter, who died in 2018.

 Trump Jr recalled growing up in New York City and running across celebrities often - 'before politics,' he said, when he 'used to get invited to the cool person parties.'

He then added: 'My ex-wife was really good friends with Kim Porter... When [Porter died], Vanessa called me and said, "something is up with that."

'[Porter] was really afraid of [Diddy] ... this goes back years, and she was having these conversations with my ex... 

'She was always sort of always in fear of something happening ... and I was like, not a lot of people die at 47 of pneumonia.... and I'm not trying to fuel any kind of rumor but that's a conversation I had with someone who knew her well.'

DailyMail.com has not confirmed Trump Jr's claims, and Los Angeles officials ruled that Porter died from pneumonia due to a lung infection. 

Trump Jr and Vanessa wed in Mar-a-Lago in 2005 and had five children together before separating after 12 years of marriage.

He is now engaged to Kimberly Guilfoyle, who was once married to California governor Gavin Newsom but is now a staunch Trump supporter.

Diddy, 54, has been embroiled in a federal probe that saw his homes in Los Angeles and Miami raided last month. 

Sources told ABC News that two of Diddy's sons were detained then released without charges. TMZ identified them as Justin and Christian 'King' Combs.

Diddy was not present during the raids, and was seen pacing around Miami airport shortly after.

The mogul's lawyer Aaron Dyer has slammed how the situation was handled, saying a day after the raids: 'Yesterday, there was a gross overuse of military-level force as search warrants were executed at Mr Combs' residences.

'There is no excuse for the excessive show of force and hostility exhibited by authorities or the way his children and employees were treated.

'Mr Combs was never detained but spoke to and cooperated with authorities. Despite media speculation, neither Mr Combs nor any of his family members have been arrested nor has their ability to travel been restricted in any way.'

The raids came after the Harlem-born hip-hop star was hit with a slew of lawsuits alleging sexual assault, rape, and other crimes after he settled his ex-girlfriend Cassie's similar lawsuit in November.

'Enough is enough. For the last couple of weeks, I have sat silently and watched people try to assassinate my character, destroy my reputation, and my legacy,' Diddy wrote December 6 in his only statement on the matter.

'Sickening allegations have been made against me by individuals looking for a quick payday. Let me be absolutely clear: I did not do any of the awful things being alleged. I will fight for my name, my family, and for the truth.'

The suit alleged he controlled and abused her for over a decade - as well as plying her with drugs, beating her, and forcing her to have sex with male prostitutes while he watched and recorded.

Cassie and multiple other women who have sued him for sexual assault in recent months are reportedly cooperating with federal investigators as an alleged sex trafficking probe involving the hip hop mogul heats up.

Cassie has been working with investigators for 'several weeks,' sources with direct knowledge told TMZ on Wednesday.

The timing means that the 37-year-old singer may have even been working with feds in the run-up to the dual Homeland Security raids on the rapper-turned-executive's Los Angeles and Miami mansions.
