They picked her up from her mother’s house and offered a drink during the car ride, which made her feel weak to get out and lose consciousness.
She woke up in a private room at the Bad Boy studio, where Diddy and his bodyguard r*ped her.
She hoped for support and comfort from her then-boyfriend, but he urged her not to talk about the assault as it would end his career.
Thalia expressed,
The violation I have experienced during the assault has had lasting effects on my body, causing ongoing health problems and complications. The combination of physical and emotional pain has created a cycle of suffering from which it is hard to break free.
She was a single mother who thought to end her life because of distress after finding Diddy had recorded the incident and shared her video as adult content in November 2023.
Her lawsuit asked for the compensation and removal of all video copies.
She shared the traumatic experience in a press conference at her lawyer, Gloria Allred‘s office.
She hasn’t fully healed from the attack and struggles with anxiety, followed by extensive mental health treatment.
Furthermore, Thalia didn’t report the incident as she was going through a difficult divorce and the custody of her young child. Diddy and his bodyguard had also threatened her.
Additional Information
- Due to her mother’s job, Thalia Graves relocated to New York City as a teenager and settled in Rego Park, where she met Diddy.
- Diddy smashed her head into a pool table as she tried to resist him, and Joseph assaulted her as she came in and out of consciousness.
- She thought she would lose the custody battle of her child if she revealed Diddy’s heinous act.
