Why has Kim Porter's book about Diddy been taken down online?
Online retailer Amazon have confirmed that Kim Porter's memoir has been removed for purchase on his site after Porter and Combs' kids said the writing was completely fabricated.
“We were made aware of a dispute regarding this title and have notified the publisher,” an Amazon spokesperson said in a statement. “The book is not currently available for sale in our store.”
Porter and Combs' four children previously released a statement saying that the book was full of "false rumours" about their parents relationship and Porter's death in 2018.
When was Kim Porter's book released?
The release date for Kim's Lost Words was released in September 2024 and featured 60-pages of Kim's 'lost' diary entries.
The person publishing the piece was Todd Christopher Guzze, who goes by the name Chris Todd and says his occupation as an “investigative producer, author and journalist”.
Todd told the Associated Press this September that sources “very close to Kim and Sean Combs” provided him with a “flash drive, documents and tapes” from Porter that he eventually pieced together to create the book. Todd used the pseudonym Jamal T Millwood when publishing the title.
