A male escort whom Sean “Diddy” Combs allegedly hired has offered an apology to Cassie Ventura. The escort and model, who goes by the pseudonym “Don,” said he met Ventura at Combs’ freak offs. He regrets any role he played in the difficult period of her life. He said he wholeheartedly believed her account of her experience with Combs.

Don said Combs hired him for several freak offs. While he said that he has not spoken to Ventura since 2016, he wishes he could apologize to her.

“I would do everything in my power to explain how sorry I was that I was a part of a situation that she’s going to view as a nightmare for the rest of her life and that I wish I had some type of inkling of what was actually going on so that I could not be a participant,” Don told People.

After hearing testimony in Combs’ trial, Don regrets any pain he added to Ventura’s and the anonymous witness Jane’s lives. 

“As far as a message I would give to Cassie and [Jane], I would say, ‘I apologize, I’m a son and I’m a brother, and I have lots of women in my life, [and] that this whole case has made me take a second look at my part and causing hurt to somebody without knowing that I was doing so,’” he said.

He added that while he’d always assumed the encounters were consensual, he believed the women’s accounts. 

“Even though in my experience they seemed as willing participants, I know that there’s a difference between going through what you went through in private and then putting on a good face for your partner because this is what your partner is enjoying — and you want to bring that type of joy to [your] partner, but it may not be something that you’re necessarily comfortable with. I do feel that they feel they were victimized, and they were made to do things against their will.” 

Don concluded by saying that he thinks Combs should also make a public apology to them.
