United Kingdom, May 20 -- Sean 'Diddy' Combs was allegedly paid $20,000 by his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura's parents out of fear for their daughter's wellbeing.

The 55-year-old rapper's New York trial is continuing after he was accused of federal crimes including sex trafficking and racketeering, and Cassie's mother Regina Ventura made the claim as witnesses continued to give testimony against the Bad Boy Records founder on Tuesday. (20.05.25)

Regina, 63, was testifying after singer Cassie, 38, gave a detailed testimony last week, and said she feared for her daughter's safety when she was with the performer.

Cassie has accused Combs of abuse throughout their relationship, which began in the mid-2000s when she was 19 and he was 36.
