Sean “Diddy” Combs is facing new allegations of rape, sexual abuse and sexual assault after a series of new lawsuits were filed on Monday.

The incidents alleged in the civil complaints, which were filed in New York federal court, span from 1995 until 2021.

The unnamed accusers allege some of the assaults happened at Diddy’s parties.

One of the accusers said he was 16 when he attended one of the parties in the Hamptons in 1998. The lawsuit alleges he was having a conversation with the rapper about breaking into the music industry when an alleged assault took place.

Mr Combs has previously denied all civil and criminal claims against him.
