Cassie and her ex, Diddy, have settled the bombshell lawsuit she filed just one day ago, alleging he’d raped her and engaged in human trafficking, and they say they’re doing it “amicably.”
Both parties released statements late Friday night saying the legal war was over. Cassie said, “I have decided to resolve this matter amicably on terms that I have some level of control. I want to thank my family, fans, and lawyers for their unwavering support.” Diddy similarly said, “We have decided to resolve this matter amicably. I wish Cassie and her family all the best. Love.”
The stunning announcement comes as the dust was still settling from the explosive allegations Cassie had leveled against Diddy. The federal lawsuit she filed Thursday accused the Bad Boy Records mogul of raping her in 2018 and forcing her to have sex with male prostitutes multiple times over the course of their relationship.
Although many of the allegations, if true, were criminal, TMZ checked with law enforcement agencies in all of the above cities, and with the FBI, but there were no open investigations against Diddy.
His attorney denied all the claims immediately and accused Cassie of filing the suit as a last resort money grab, claiming she had threatened for months to write a tell-all book if Diddy didn’t give her $30 million.
The terms of the settlement have not been disclosed, and neither party’s statement makes reference to any money being exchanged.
Cassie’s suit spurred a lot of people to weigh in on the saga, some for her, others a bit more skeptical. In any case, it’s all over now.
The lawsuit between Cassie and Diddy has taken an unexpected turn, with both parties announcing that they have reached an amicable settlement. This comes as a surprise considering the serious allegations made by Cassie against Diddy, including rape and human trafficking.
The settlement was announced late Friday night, with both Cassie and Diddy releasing statements indicating that they have decided to resolve the matter amicably. Cassie expressed her desire to resolve the matter on terms that she has some level of control over, while thanking her family, fans, and lawyers for their support. Similarly, Diddy wished Cassie and her family all the best in his statement.
The lawsuit had sparked widespread discussion and speculation, with many people taking sides and expressing their opinions on the matter. The allegations made by Cassie against Diddy were serious and, if true, would have had severe legal implications.
Despite the gravity of the allegations, no open investigations were found to be underway against Diddy by law enforcement agencies in the cities mentioned in Cassie’s lawsuit, as well as the FBI. Diddy’s attorney had vehemently denied all the claims and accused Cassie of filing the suit as a means of extortion, claiming that she had threatened to write a tell-all book if Diddy didn’t pay her $30 million.
The terms of the settlement have not been disclosed, and it is unclear whether any money exchanged hands as part of the agreement. However, the fact that the parties were able to reach a resolution without further legal action is a positive development.
The lawsuit, as well as the subsequent settlement, has captured the attention of the public, sparking debates and discussions about the allegations and the nature of the settlement. The resolution of the case leaves many questions unanswered, but it brings the legal battle between Cassie and Diddy to an end.
It remains to be seen how the public will react to the settlement and whether it will bring closure to the controversy surrounding the lawsuit. Despite the settlement, the allegations and the legal battle have left a lasting impact and raised important questions about consent, abuse, and the complexities of high-profile relationships.
