Tributes Pour in for Diddys Ex Model Kim Porter

As tributes for the late model and actress pour in, friends and family send their prayers and well wishes for Porter’s children, whom she loved more than anything.

Last Thursday, hip-hop fans across the globe were stunned by the news that 47 year old model and actress Kim Porter had suddenly passed away. Porter was found unresponsive in her California home and pronounced dead at the scene.

Days later Sean “Didd” Combs finally spoke up about her passing and found the words to publicly grieve Kim Porter three days after her death.

“For the last three days I’ve been trying to wake up out of this nightmare. But I haven’t. I don’t know what I’m going to do without you baby. I miss you so much. Today I’m going to pay tribute to you, I’m going to try and find the words to explain our unexplainable relationship,” he wrote in the caption.

Porter and Combs were a couple for more than a decade and remained close after they parted ways in 2007. They had twin daughters and a son together. Porter had an older son from a previous relationship.

“We were more than best friends, we were more than soulmates. WE WERE SOME OTHER S–T!! And I miss you so much. Super Black Love,” the post reads.

The post includes footage of the couple from a 2006 Essence shoot that’s been making the rounds on social media since Porter’s death.

In the video, Porter is pregnant as the two dance and embrace with SWV’s “When U Cry” playing. Porter gushes as she describes her excitement over being able to share an example of black love. “We don’t get a chance to see much of that,” she says.

Diddy’s words come two days after another famous ex of Porter’s paid tribute to her.

R&B singer and producer Al B. Sure shared a photo of him and Porter on Instagram with the hashtag #ForeverMyLady. The hashtag refers to a hit Jodeci song, “Forever My Lady,” which Al B. wrote about her.

Kim was a proud mom of four — a son, Quincy Brown, 27, with R&B Singer Al B. Sure!, and her three children with Diddy, son Christian Casey Combs, 20, and twin daughters D’Lila Star and Jessie James, 11. As Porter’s friends and family began posting tributes and old photos of her online, one thing was abundantly clear: Kim Porter lived for her family, and spending time with her beautiful children made her the happiest. She was already their angel.
