In his first post, he spoke of the “nightmare” he’s been unable to wake up from and how much he missed Porter. He also described their “unexplainable” relationship.

“For the last three days, I’ve been trying to wake up out of this nightmare,” Diddy began. “But I haven’t. I don’t know what I’m going to do without you baby. I miss you so much.”

“I’m going to try and find the words to explain our unexplainable relationship. We were more than best friends, we were more than soulmates. WE WERE SOME OTHER SHIT!! And I miss you so much.”

A RELATIONSHIP FOR KEEPS

Diddy and Porter dated for thirteen years on and off and share three children together. Although they finally parted ways in 2007, they remained the best of friends, and more like family.

A source for People said Diddy’s relationship with Porter was special.

“Despite not being together romantically, he loved Kim. It was really true love and he is hurting badly right now.”
