In a recent interview, author Christopher Andersen revealed an interesting detail about the relationship between rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs and two British princes. According to the author of the biography The King , Diddy performed at the concert held at Wembley Stadium during the 2007 Princess Diana memorial service. After that, Diddy went to get to know Princes William and Harry at the guest appreciation party.
At the event, Diddy invited the two princes to attend his parties. However, royal aides firmly declined the invitation because they were both young. Despite this, Diddy continued to contact and send invitations.
“Diddy invited William and Harry when they were young, excitable boys, but the invitation was politely declined,” author Andersen told Fox News .
Both Prince William and Prince Harry were often pictured partying all night at London clubs. It wasn’t until Prince William got engaged to Princess Kate Middleton that Diddy stopped sending out invitations. “After William and Kate got engaged, Diddy got the message and stopped inviting them,” Andersen added.
In a recently resurfaced clip from The Graham Norton Show in 2011, Diddy admitted that he wanted to invite the two princes to his parties. When asked about this, the rapper replied: “I don’t think it’s the right time anymore. However, I think before William gets married, they should both come and join me.”
In addition to the British royal family, many other American entertainers are trying to distance themselves from the controversy surrounding this investigation. Among them are those who have worked with the rapper Diddy. Singer Usher, for example, who had a close relationship with Diddy in the past. He is also facing public scrutiny even though he has not been charged.
Silence is a common sight in Hollywood right now, with many avoiding public statements. Any contact with Diddy could bring unwanted attention during this sensitive time.
Earlier, on September 16, rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs was arrested on charges related to sex trafficking and extortion. Diddy’s lawyers are trying to deny all charges.
