Diddy Denies Prison Rumors: ‘The Claims I Was Caught With Alcohol Are Completely False’

In a post shared on his official X account, Diddy declared: “The rumors claiming Mr. Combs was caught with alcohol are completely false. His only focus is becoming the best version of himself and returning to his family.”

Diddy is currently incarcerated at Federal Correctional Institution Fort Dix in New Jersey following his conviction on prostitution-related charges. While in custody, several media outlets have reported allegations that he was found consuming homemade alcohol behind bars — notably, a mix of soda, sugar and apples that inmates allegedly ferment into a low-grade drink.

In response, a representative of Diddy issued a statement saying: “Mr. Combs is in his first week at FCI Fort Dix and is focused on adjusting, working on himself and doing better each day. As with any high-profile individual in a new environment, there will be many rumors and exaggerated stories throughout his time there—most of them untrue. We ask that people give him the benefit of the doubt, the privacy to focus on his personal growth with grace and purpose.”

So far, prison officials have not publicly confirmed the alleged alcohol incident. Meanwhile, the statement from Diddy’s team aims to offer a counter-narrative by categorically denying the initial rumors and shifting attention to his personal journey and family focus.
