Sean “Diddy” Combs’ release date has been pushed back another month.
The embattled music mogul was originally scheduled to complete his sentence at Fort Dix Federal Correctional Institute in New Jersey on May 8, 2028.
However, Page Six confirmed on Wednesday that his release has been postponed to June 4, 2028.
The reason for the rescheduling remains unclear, but it comes after the rapper made headlines for allegedly violating multiple prison rules.
Combs’ representatives and the Federal Bureau of Prisons have not yet responded to Page Six’s requests for comment.
TMZ reported last week that Combs got “in trouble with prison officials” after consuming “homemade alcohol” made from fermented sugar, Fanta soda and apples.
A spokesperson for Combs told Page Six last week that the Grammy winner was “in his first week at FCI Fort Dix[after being transferred from Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center]… focused on adjusting, improving himself and doing better every day.”
The spokesperson continued: “As with any high profile person placed in a new environment, there will be many rumors and exaggerated stories during his stay, most of which are untrue. We ask that people give him the benefit of the doubt and give him privacy to focus on his personal growth.”
On Friday, CBS News reported that Combs was arrested again on suspicion of participating in a prohibited three-way phone call.
The conversation reportedly took place on November 3, four days before Combs was transferred to a low-security New Jersey prison, where he appeared in a new mugshot showing gray hair.
Combs claimed he was not given a prison admission and orientation handbook and did not know that “third-party or three-way calls are not allowed.”
His attorney denied that a “procedural summons” was “inappropriate” because it is “protected under attorney-client privilege.”
Combs has been in prison since his arrest in September 2024 on racketeering conspiracy charges. Sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion. Transportation for engaging in prostitution.
The songwriter’s trial began in May, and Combs was found guilty two months later on two counts of transportation for the purpose of prostitution, but acquitted of the more serious charges.
In October, he was sentenced to four years and two months in prison.
In addition, Mr. Combs was ordered to pay a $500,000 fine and participate in a mental health and substance abuse program.
