Diddy undergoes drastic physical transformation in prison amid scandal, sources reveal why

NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK – Sean ‘P Diddy’ Combs was in the public eye for an additional reason other than his serious legal troubles on Thursday (October 10).

The rapper made his first public appearance in a New York City courtroom that day since his arrest last month and appeared noticeably thinner, prompting speculation about his transformation.

While people were shocked to see Diddy’s current physique, sources revealed that the change hadn’t been sudden and that Diddy had been working on a “health regimen” before being arrested on multiple felony and civil charges .

Diddy’s physical transformation

According to Newsweek, the music mogul, whose nicknames include Puff Daddy, looked far from puffed up during his audition.

Cameras were not allowed inside the courtroom, but Combs, 54, appeared thinner in the sketches released. His face showed the most prominent signs of change, with the publication describing him as “narrower” and his cheeks “slightly thinner.”

Speculation on Diddy’s weight loss

Diddy’s weight loss has sparked speculation among the public, dividing them into two main groups. One believed that the stress of ongoing criminal investigations was finally getting to him, while the other claimed that he did not eat in prison for fear of getting poisoned.

The eating disorder theory was supported by the rapper’s attorney Marc Agnifilo, who told reporters outside court that “eating is probably the hardest part” of the rapper’s time behind bars.

The source shares the reason for Diddy’s weight loss

A source close to the rapper told TMZ a day after his first court appearance that Diddy appeared thinner as he had been losing weight since before his Sept. 16 arrest.

While staying at his Miami mansion for most of the year while the investigations against him progressed, Diddy “began a physical and mental health regimen to stay healthy,” the publication reported.

Diddy was working out to stay in good physical shape, the source claimed. While her weight loss has been a big part of attracting public attention, it’s still unclear how much she’s lost in the process.
