Kim Porter, a model and actress, died on November 15, 2018, at the age of 47 due to lobar pneumonia. Her sudden death shocked fans, friends, and family alike, leaving behind her four children, including D'Lila and Jessie, whom she shared with Diddy.
Since her death, the twins, now 17 years old, have often expressed their grief and love for their mother. In their post, they reiterated that their mother’s spirit lives on, despite her physical absence.

The post quickly garnered support from followers, with many offering words of comfort. "Her spirit is with you always. I see a lot of her in you girls. She would be proud of the strong, independent women you are becoming," one user commented.
Another added, "Love you girls💕 We miss your mommy so much too💕".
Another replied, "Love you and miss you auntie Kim 😔😔".
One commented, "With you Always and Forever 💜💜💜"
The tribute came amid ongoing challenges for the Combs family. In addition to mourning Kim’s loss, the twins are also navigating the current legal troubles of their father, Diddy, who is facing serious charges.
The music mogul, 54, was arrested in September on federal charges related to trafficking and racketeering. He has since been denied bond twice and remains in custody while awaiting trial.
As the twins continue to process their grief, they have also been vocal about protecting their mother’s legacy. In October, a memoir titled 'Kim’s Lost Words: A Journey for Justice From the Other Side…' surfaced, claiming to be written by Kim Porter. The book included allegations about Kim and Diddy’s relationship, and which the Combs children have publicly denounced.

In a statement, Diddy and Kim’s children categorically rejected the authenticity of the memoir, calling it “fake” and labeling it a “shameless attempt to profit from tragedy.” They also addressed rumors surrounding their mother’s death, stating, “The cause of her death has long been established. There was no foul play.”
The statement continued, “We ask that everyone respect our request for peace as we continue to cope with her loss every day.”
The twins emphasized that any person claiming to speak on their mother’s behalf, or in possession of alleged works like the memoir, is not a trusted friend or representative of their family.
