Yung Miami finally broke her silence on her ‘beneficial’ two-year open relationship with her mentor Sean ‘Love’ Combs aka Diddy, whom she split from in April 2023 – many months before he faced a barrage of abuse lawsuits and Homeland Security’s sex-trafficking investigation.
‘I was with him when the world was celebrating him,’ the 30-year-old City Girls alum explained on her Caresha Please podcast on Thursday.
‘I can’t speak on something that wasn’t my experience, I can’t speak on something I don’t know. I can’t speak on these allegations because I wasn’t around at the time. I don’t know that person and that wasn’t my experience.’
Yung Miami (born Caresha Romeka Brownlee) was ‘deeply hurt and shocked after watching the video’ CNN leaked on May 17 of the disgraced 54-year-old rap mogul violently assaulting his ex-girlfriend Casandra ‘Cassie’ Fine on March 6, 2016.
The abused 37-year-old claimed Diddy paid InterContinental Century City staff $50K for the security camera footage – which showed him smack her to the ground, kick her, throw glass at her, then drag her back to their hotel room.

The 30-year-old City Girls alum explained on her Caresha Please podcast on Thursday: ‘I was with him when the world was celebrating him…I can’t speak on something that wasn’t my experience, I can’t speak on something I don’t know. I can’t speak on these allegations because I wasn’t around at the time. I don’t know that person and that wasn’t my experience’
The LA County District Attorney said they could not prosecute the three-time Grammy winner for the beating as California’s statute of limitations has passed, but he quickly settled Cassie’s November 16th lawsuit against him.
‘I’ve been in a toxic relationship before when I was younger,’ the Florida native recalled.
‘In high school, my early 20s, and they’re not healthy. They’re not fun. It’s just I’ve been there, done that, and that’s somewhere I would never want to put myself. Now, being 30 with two kids, that’s something I don’t condone or tolerate, something that I grew from.
‘That’s why I say that wasn’t my experience with him, because I wouldn’t even put up with that [again]. I want to be a good example of a mother and a woman for my daughter.’
Yung Miami has two children – 11-year-old son Jai Malik Wiggins Jr. with babydaddy Jai Wiggins (who was fatally shot in 2020) and four-year-old daughter Summer Miami Luellen with Grammy-nominated producer Southside.
On April 7, the I Need a Thug rapper denied allegations made by producer Rodney ‘Lil Rod’ Jones in his civil lawsuit in February that she was hired as a sex worker for Diddy alongside wellness coach Jade Ramey and Curtis ’50 Cent’ Jackson’s babymama Daphne Joy.
‘I’m not a prostitute. I never sold [cat emoji] a day in my life. And I hate how this is getting spun,’ Yung Miami wrote via Instastory.

The civil lawsuit also alleged that the unmarried father-of-seven ordered Yung Miami bring ‘tusi’ aka ‘pink cocaine’ on a private jet to the Water Music Festival in Virginia in April 2023 because his drug mule Brendan Paul (who was arrested on March 25) ‘forgot it’
The You People actress said of their split soon after: ‘Sometimes a relationship runs its course. People breakup every day, and with everything that happened, I just needed time alone’ (pictured in 2023)
Yung Miami continued: ‘When all these things came out, I just needed to take a break and focus on what’s important, which is me and my career and my family. [I needed to] let him navigate and figure that out on his own because I can’t be caught up in that’ (pictured September 12)
Looking back now, the Flashy rapper said: ‘This whole thing has broken me and impacted me in such a way, and it was kind of a dark time for me. So I just want to stay positive and focus on myself and what’s important to me right now. I always tell myself, “Stay strong, stay consistent. You are beautiful. You are worthy.” In life you always face challenges. But when you fall like it, you pick up, you ride again.’ (pictured Thursday)
Yung Miami is next scheduled to perform at the Back 2 Da Streetz Bash happening September 20 at the Yuengling Center in Tampa, FL
Back in 2022, Media Take Out claimed the You People actress ended her relationship with the unmarried father-of-seven after he ‘reduced her monthly allowance from $500K to $200K.’
