### Amazon Removes Controversial Memoir About Kim Porter and Sean "Diddy" Combs
Amazon has taken down a memoir from its platform that claimed to recount an abusive relationship between the late Kim Porter and her longtime partner Sean "Diddy" Combs. The book, titled "Kim's Lost Words: A journey for justice, from the other side...", faced sharp criticism and was labeled a fabrication by Porter's children after it gained bestseller status on the site in September.
Porter's children, Christian (26), Jessie and D'Lila (17-year-old twins), along with Quincy Brown, her son with Al B Sure! who was also raised by Combs, vehemently denied the book's authenticity. In a unified statement posted on Instagram, they countered the assertions made in the memoir, insisting that any claims their mother had penned the book were entirely false.
"We have seen so many hurtful and false rumors circulating about our parents, Kim Porter and Sean Combs' relationship. As well as about our mom's tragic passing," the children stated, emphasizing the lack of truth in the book's narrative.
Following the backlash, an Amazon spokesperson confirmed that the company was aware of a dispute concerning the title and had subsequently pulled the book from sale. "The book is not currently available for sale in our store," the spokesperson clarified.
The memoir was published by Todd Christopher Guzze, who uses the name Chris Todd and describes himself as an investigative producer, author, and journalist. Guzze claimed in a September phone interview with the Associated Press that he had obtained a collection of materials—including a flash drive, documents, and tapes—from sources allegedly close to Kim Porter and Sean Combs. He then compiled these materials under the pseudonym Jamal T Millwood to create the contested memoir.
It's noteworthy that Sean "Diddy" Combs was recently arrested and is now facing numerous charges of sexual misconduct. An attorney in Texas announced on Tuesday that he is representing an additional 120 accusers in related cases.
