Sean 'Diddy' Combs was transported from federal prison Fort Dix in New Jersey to a nearby hospital due to a medical emergency. According to TMZ, the 56-year-old rapper was treated for a non-life-threatening head injury early Saturday morning. An ambulance reportedly picked up Combs at the correctional institution around 1 a.m. and he was conscious and speaking when returned to the prison before sunrise. The cause of his injury remains unclear. Combs' representative stated, 'We are aware of the reports concerning Sean Combs and are working to confirm the circumstances. Sean’s health and well-being are our immediate concern, and we appreciate everyone who has reached out.' Combs was convicted on two counts of transportation for prostitution in July 2025 and sentenced to 50 months in prison. Reports from last month indicated that Combs had a 'pampered' life in prison, with claims that he had access to cooking and cleaning services, a cellphone, antidepressant drugs, and premium liquor. Following the publicity regarding his living conditions, he was reportedly placed in solitary confinement. Additionally, his prison release date has been postponed from January 21, 2028, to March 2, 2028.
