Sean ‘ Diddy ’ Combs former makeup artist has claimed she saw injuries on Cassandra ‘Cassie’ Ventura that hinted at abuse while the pair were in a relationship. Mylah Morales’ claims come days after the release of footage showing Combs attacking Ventura in a Los Angeles hotel hallway in 2016 . On Sunday (26 May), Combs posted a video admitting that he attacked Ventura, saying he was “truly sorry” and his actions were “inexcusable”.
The makeup artist said she saw Ventura with bruises and a black eye after an alleged incident during the weekend of the Grammy Awards over a decade ago. In an interview with Extra , the makeup artist claimed Diddy woke her up in the middle of the night asking, “where the f**k is she?” in reference to Ventura. Morales’ claims she could hear “sh*t [that] I don’t want to go back and think about” from the next room but knew she had to get Ventura “out of there”.
When Ventura returned from the neighbouring room, Morales claims she was “badly bruised” with “knots on her head” and “a black eye”. “All I cared about was getting her to safety,” she said. “I took her into my house and kept her there for a few days.
” The makeup artist added she had also called her friend “who was a doctor at the time” to treat Ventura’s injuries rather than take her to a hospital. “We didn’t know what the hell to do at that point. Who are we going to call?” Morales admitted she still feels “scared” to speak .
