A woman who filed a lawsuit against Sean “Diddy” Combs, claiming he sexually assaulted and trafficked her at his “white parties” nearly twenty years ago, may be losing her legal representation.

On Wednesday, Adria English’s lawyers, Ariel Mitchell-Kidd and Steven A. Metcalf, formally requested to withdraw as her legal representatives, as stated in a court document obtained by YSL News. They cited “a breakdown in the attorney-client relationship” and “irreconcilable differences” for their decision.

The motion outlined that the attorneys and English have a “fundamental disagreement regarding almost every aspect of the litigation, including settlement demands and causes of action.” They also mentioned her alleged “undermining behavior and questionable antics,” which led to “irreconcilable conflict and tension,” according to the filing.

The lawyers claimed that English had violated a previous agreement made on September 24 due to her “tone and lack of respect” and her ongoing “self-destructive activities.”

The attorneys requested a private meeting with the judge to discuss their request in detail and noted that English is seeking new legal representation. They also pointed out that Combs’ team has yet to be served with the complaint, which was initially filed on July 3 and re-filed on September 17.

Mitchell-Kidd stated to The New York Times on Thursday that her faith in the case remained unshaken, but she lost trust in English, asserting, “Her case is strong. My issue was with her undermining my work and acting counterproductively.” English also expressed to the Times her disagreements with Mitchell-Kidd, particularly regarding advice against speaking to the media.

A spokesperson for Combs has denounced English’s claims as “completely fabricated statements.”

“In the court documents submitted today, her former attorneys highlighted Ms. English’s ‘questionable antics’ and ‘undermining behavior.’ We have consistently stated that anyone can file a lawsuit without evidence, and this is a clear instance of that,” the statement claimed. “Adria English has escalated matters by submitting false police reports and making unfounded accusations, using high-profile events to harm innocent individuals. Regardless of how many lawsuits are initiated, the truth remains that Mr. Combs has not sexually assaulted or trafficked anyone.”

Combs was arrested on September 16 and was arraigned the following day on charges including sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation for the purpose of prostitution. He is currently being held in the Special Housing Unit at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center, maintaining his innocence in light of numerous civil lawsuits filed against him over the past year, and he has pleaded not guilty to all charges.

Details of Adria English’s lawsuit

In her extensive 114-page lawsuit filed in the U.S. Court for the Southern District of New York, English accused Combs of sex trafficking her and others through his associates from 2004 to 2009 across New York and Florida.

At the time, a New York go-go dancer, English claimed she participated as “entertainment” at Combs’ “white parties” in the Hamptons and Miami to help her boyfriend secure modeling gigs with Combs’ fashion line, Sean John. She alleged that she was coerced into consuming large amounts of alcohol and illegal drugs, including ecstasy, and was ultimately forced into sexual acts with guests.

Furthermore, English alleged that Combs facilitated her entry into the music industry to “silence” her and keep her within his sex trafficking ring while threatening harm or blacklisting anyone who opposed him.

Following numerous civil lawsuits in the past year accusing Combs of sexual misconduct and trafficking, federal prosecutors announced a significant indictment last month that indicates an ongoing federal investigation into the music mogul.

Investigators assert that the 54-year-old orchestrated elaborate schemes using his wealth and influence in the entertainment sector to satisfy his sexual desires in a “well-known and recurring” pattern of abuse.

Authorities have collected over 90 cell phones, laptops, cloud storage accounts, and a minimum of 30 storage devices as evidence. They have also issued over 300 grand jury subpoenas to gather information from telecommunications providers, tech and social media companies, financial institutions, and Combs’ business ventures.

Prosecutors claim to possess “dozens” of recordings showing Combs’ so-called “freak offs” — extended sexual encounters involving sex workers and individuals he allegedly coerced into participating through drugs and intimidation — supporting witness testimonies.
