A new Hulu reality show following Sean “Diddy” Combs’ family has reportedly been scrapped after the media mogul’s recent sexual assault allegations.
The project, which was reportedly being developed under the working title “Diddy+7,” was being produced by James Corden’s production company Fulwell 73, Variety reported on Thursday.
The Post has contacted reps for Hulu, Fulwell 73, and Combs for comment.
Combs, 54, has seven children: Quincy, 32, Justin, 29, Christian, 25, Chance, 17, twins D’Lila and Jessie, 16, and Love, 1.
The “Bad Boy For Life” rapper has faced a slew of sexual misconduct allegations over the past month, starting with his former longtime girlfriend and R&B singer, Cassie.
Cassie, 37, claimed Combs raped and beat her for over a decade. The pair settled the case within 24 hours of her filing it, but Combs insisted the settlement wasn’t an admission of guilt.
“We have decided to resolve this matter amicably. I wish Cassie and her family all the best. Love,” he said in a statement.
More women came forward with their accusations, including Joi Dickerson-Neal, who claimed in a lawsuit that Combs sexually assaulted her after a dinner date at Wells restaurant in Harlem in 1991 and filmed it. His rep said the suit was not credible and was a money grab.
A third suit claimed Combs and singer Aaron Hall took turns raping her and a friend in the early 1990s. Combs’ rep said this accusation, too, was the result of Combs’ fame and success.
A fourth woman accused the “I’ll Be Missing You” rapper and others of gang-raping her in 2003 when she was just 17 years old. The Jane Doe claimed the assault happened at his recording studio after flying her to the city and giving her drugs and alcohol.
Meanwhile, Combs’ rap rival 50 Cent announced his plans to release a documentary on Combs’ alleged abuse. The proceeds from the project will be donated to victims of sexual assault and rape.
Combs adamantly denied all accusations against him in a statement on Dec. 6.
“ENOUGH IS ENOUGH,” he wrote. “For the last couple of weeks, I have sat silently and watched people try to assassinate my character, destroy my reputation and my legacy,” the statement said. “Sickening allegations have been made against me by individuals looking for a quick payday.”
“Let me be absolutely clear: I did not do any of the awful things being alleged. I will fight for my name, my family, and for the truth,” the statement concluded.
