Justin Bieber is reportedly struggling with regret and shock after his former mentor, Sean 'Diddy' Combs, was arrested on severe charges, including sex trafficking and abuse.
Bieber, once a protégé of the hip-hop mogul, is deeply disturbed by the news of Combs' indictment and the resurfacing of troubling old videos, which have caused the young star to reconsider his past association with the rapper.
Combs, currently facing allegations of years of coercion, exploitation, and sexual abuse, has been detained in Brooklyn alongside other high-profile inmates. Following the arrest, a three-year-old video has resurfaced, showing Diddy patting Bieber down, seemingly checking for a wire. The clip has gone viral since Homeland Security raided Combs' homes in LA and Miami after several sexual assault claims were made against him.
Bieber, now a father, has reportedly been shutting down emotionally since the news broke, unable to process or discuss the situation. Sources told *Daily Mail* that Justin has refused to comment on the situation since the federal raids. "He’s deeply disturbed by the news and is unwilling to process it," an insider revealed, adding that Bieber regrets ever being involved with Combs.
The scandal surrounding Diddy intensified after his ex-partner, Cassie Ventura, accused him of physical abuse, alongside testimonies from former associates like Lil Rod. As more disturbing details emerge, many speculate Bieber himself may have been a victim of manipulation, which could explain his gradual distancing from Combs in recent years.
Bieber reportedly regrets working with Combs on their latest collaboration. The pop star featured on Diddy's 2023 album, *The Love Album: Off the Grid*, but sources close to him say had he known about the allegations at the time, he would never have participated.
Reflecting on his past, Bieber saw Combs as a mentor and elder brother when he first entered the music industry. However, the revelations about Combs' alleged criminal activities have left Bieber questioning the years he spent in association with the disgraced music mogul.
