PRINCE Harry has been dragg3d into Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ bombshell £23.7m lawsuit.
Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones, who helped produce Diddy’s most recent album, claims the mogul s3xually harassed, drugged, and thr3atened him as they worked together.

In court documents filed in the US last month Lil Rod claims Diddy’s “affiliation” to Prince Harry and other stars gave him and his associates “legitimacy”.
There is no suggestion Prince Harry did anything wrong, or had knowledge of wrongdoing by others. Harry was not named as a defendant.
The lawsuit states guests were drawn to Diddy’s “s3x trafficking parties” because of the rapper’s “access to celebrities such as famous athletes, political figures, artist, musicians, and international dignitaries like British Royal, Prince Harry”.
Prince Harry met P Diddy – along with Kanye West – once at an after-show party to thank those who had taken part in the Concert for Diana at Wembley Stadium in 2007.
Recent lawsuits against Diddy
Diddy was hit with a wave of lawsuits in late 2023 and early 2024 with shocking allegations of s3x trafficking and s3xual assault. He has denied all claims against him.
Cassie, Diddy’s longtime girlfriend, sued him in November 2023, claiming she endured “a cycle of abuse, violence, and s3x trafficking” until their relationship ended in 2018. Diddy and Cassie settled the suit the day after it was filed.
Diddy was hit with two more lawsuits a week later. Joi Dickerson accused Diddy of drugging and raping her and filming the @ttack when she was a 19-year-old college student in January 1991.
A second accuser in a separate lawsuit claimed that Diddy and another man s3xually assaulted her and a friend in 1990 or 1991 then showed up at her apartment and beat her several days later.
Diddy was sued again in December by a woman who claimed he and two men gang-raped her in 2003 when she was 17 years old.
In February 2024, Rodney ‘Lil Rod’ Jones, who helped produce Diddy’s most recent album, claimed that the mogul s3xually harassed, drugged, and threatened him from September 2022 to November 2023 as they worked together.
‘Lil Rod’, who produced nine songs on Diddy’s The Love Album: Off the Grid in 2023, claims in court docs he was ordered to recruit prostitutes and have s3x with them for the star’s pleasure at his parties.
He also claims in the lawsuit that the music mogul s3xually assaulted him.
The producer says underage girls and s3x workers were guests at the rapper’s house parties and that he saw Diddy drug their drinks, according to court documents.
As part of the huge suit, Lil Rod has named some of the biggest names in the industry as co-defendants.

Diddy has denied the allegations, calling them “sickening”, while his lawyer dismissed the claims made by Jones as “pure fiction”.
Lawyer Shawn Holley told TMZ in February: “Lil Rod is nothing more than a liar who filed a $30million lawsuit shamelessly looking for an undeserved payday.”
It comes just hours after officers from the Department of Homeland Security raided Diddy’s home in Los Angeles and Florida mansion.
Diddy has since been spotted at an airport in Miami and while his private jet was tracked to Antigua he was not on board.
‘Drugg3d and rap3d’
Diddy has faced a slew of allegations in recent months.
After Cassie accused him of sex trafficking, Joi Dickerson alleged in a lawsuit that Diddy drugged and raped her and filmed the attack when she was a 19-year-old college student in January 1991.
Another woman filed a separate lawsuit claiming that Diddy and another man s3xually assaulted her and a friend in 1990 or 1991 then showed up at an apartment several days later and beat her.
A third woman claimed that she was gang raped by three men including Diddy and Harve Pierre, president of Bad Boy Entertainment, in 2003.
She would have been 17 at the time, and Combs, 34.
Diddy has denied all allegations against him and addressed some of the accusations in a December 6, 2023, Instagram post.
“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,” he wrote.
