<p id=”par-2_17″>After Diddy and Porter broke up, she kicked him out of their house and changed the locks.</p>
<p id=”par-3_20″>“I told him someone’s got to go, and it isn’t going to be me and these kids,” she told <a target=”_blank” href=”https://www.essence.com/news/no-ordinary-love-sean-diddy-combs-and-ki/” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Essence</a>.</p>

<p id=”par-4_11″>This sent a clear message, but Diddy continued to contact her.</p>
<p id=”par-5_41″>“He was calling fifty, sixty times a day,” she said. “Sometimes I wouldn’t even talk to him because I was so angry. I couldn’t be ‘nice Kim.’ I had to be, you know, that b****. Like, this is not going down.”</p>
<p id=”par-6_27″>Porter said that he continued to drop by the home unannounced and refused to stick to a visitation agreement <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/diddy-family-tree-guide-sean-combs-kids-partners-parents-siblings.html/”>regarding their children</a> that they established in court.</p>
<p id=”par-7_16″>“It was like my life was not my own,” Porter said. “He was very, very intrusive.”</p>

<p id=”par-8_40″>During Diddy’s 2001 trial for his alleged involvement <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/jennifer-lopez-called-1-night-sean-diddy-combs-complete-nightmare.html/”>in a nightclub shooting</a>, Porter and her children moved to Georgia to escape the chaos. When he was acquitted, Diddy began flying down to visit her in an attempt to make amends.</p>
<p id=”par-9_63″>“[He was] forced to come to me to work things out. And he really had to jump through some hoops,” Porter said. “He was on the plane every weekend, talking to my mom and my grandmother and telling the kids, ‘Daddy made a mistake.’ It wasn’t like I had been going out with Puffy by myself, I had a whole family behind me.”</p>
<p id=”par-10_9″>Eventually, Porter decided to get back together with him. </p>
<p id=”par-11_33″>“He’s gentle, giving, and sensitive, especially to me,” she said. “He’s really a good guy, with a big, big heart. I get to see that. I’m really thankful I get to see that.”</p>
<h2 class=”wp-block-heading” id=”h-he-spoke-about-why-he-pursued-jennifer-lopez”>He spoke about why he pursued Jennifer Lopez</h2>

<p id=”par-13_23″>“It wasn’t boom, I just woke up one morning and started messing with Jennifer and left Kim,” he says. “That’s not what happened.”</p>

<p id=”par-14_24″>While he would later come to miss Porter’s calm and reserved nature, he said this was initially a major reason why he left her.</p>
<p id=”par-15_50″>“I’m used to applause when I walk in the room and she was just too cool,” he said. “I would tell her, ‘I guess I’ll go be with someone else who’ll take care of me the way I want to be taken care of, who’ll be a little more aggressive.’”</p>
