Al B. Sure!, the biological father of Porter’s eldest son, Quincy Brown, also paid tribute to her, referring to her as “Forever My Lady.” Al B. shared a picture of him and Porter on Instagram with the hashtag #ForeverMyLady, which refers to a hit Jodeci song written about Porter, Forever My Lady.
Never Ready to Tie the Knot
They started dating in 1994 and decided to walk separate ways in 1999, just a year after welcoming their first son together, Christian, which was followed by a custody battle. Afterward, Diddy dated Jennifer Lopez for two years before they reconciled in 2003.
However, he was never ready to marry her.
“I know she deserves to get married, but I’m just not ready. It’s not a reflection on how much I love Kim. It’s that I’m just learning how to be a good boyfriend. When I’m finished with this step, I’ll move on to the next.”
Separated for Good
Porterl eft Diddy for good for the final time in 2007. She said in a statement at that time,
“In ending this relationship, I made a decision that was in the best interest of myself, Sean and our family. I look forward to moving on with my life and my career, and wish him prosperity, health and happiness in life and in love. We will remain friends and committed parents to our children.”

Their split was dramatic as she took away everything from the kitchen table to the car and their kids when Diddy was out of town. Despite that, they always came forward as “best friends forever” and manifested their family as a powerful one on every occasion. Reportedly, months before her demise, Porter and Diddy were as tight as ever. Our hearts and prayers are with the family. Rest in peace, Kim Porter!
