Diddy and his son Christian Combs have been named in a new lawsuit that accuses Christian of sexual assault and battery on a yacht that was chartered by the music mogul in 2022.
Grace O’Marcaigh, who was working on the yacht, alleged in a civil suit filed Thursday in the Los Angeles County Superior Court, that Christian, 26, forced her to take a “spiked” shot of tequila, groped her and then assaulted her, according to multiple reports. “Like father, like son,” attorney Tyrone Blackburn, who represents O’Marcaigh, said Thursday night to NBC. “It gives us no joy or pleasure in filing this suit against Christian Combs who has clearly adopted his father’s pattern and practice of depravity.”

Christian’s attorney Aaron Dyer responded to lawsuit and stated: “This is just another lewd and meritless claim from Tyrone Blackburn — just like what he filed in the Rodney Jones lawsuit, which he still has not served. This complaint is filled with the same kind of manufactured lies and irrelevant facts we’ve come to expect from Blackburn,” Dyer said. “We will be filing a motion to dismiss this outrageous claim.”
In her suit, O’Marcaigh, who was 25 at the time, alleges she saw partying and drug use between a “constant rotation of suspected sex workers” and celebrities, NBC News reported. “Plaintiff was quite scared and realized she was in a very dangerous situation,” the paperwork stated, adding that her interactions with Christian very quickly turned “sinister.” O’Marcaigh alleges Christian “insisted” she take a shot of tequila and then started to kiss her neck and face as he groped her legs, breasts, anus and vagina.
Christian later cornered O’Marcaigh in a cinema room on the boat in a manner that was “extremely aggressive,” stripped off his clothes and tried to “force plaintiff to perform oral copulation,” the suit stated.

The lawsuit includes color photos showing bruises on O’Marcaigh’s arm she claims were caused by Christian.
The suit also stated that music producer
Rodney Jones, who brought his own suit against Diddy alleging he coerced him to solicit and have sex with prostitutes, was on the yacht at the time and made audio recordings of O’Marcaigh asking Christian to stop touching her.
She says she complained to the ship’s captain, but the incident was not properly investigated. She alleges Diddy paid the captain a hefty tip as part of a “coverup,” per Rolling Stone.
