Jennifer Lopez may be one of the biggest pop stars in the world but her personal life has always been at the forefront. Her recent divorce from ex-husband Ben Affleck took over headlines for months this year and her affiliation with recently arrested rapper Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs has also come under fire.
Lopez was famously dating Diddy in 1999 and was involved in an alleged club shooting that led to both of them being detained. While the two broke up later, Lopez’s mother famously showed her disapproval of him live onThe Wendy Williams Show. However, she was reportedly not the only family member of an ex-girlfriend who did not like Diddy.
Kim Porter’s Family Did Not Approve Of Diddy
Sean ‘Diddy’ Combshas been consistently making headlines ever since he was arrested in September on federal charges. Multiple victims have accused the disgraced rapper of s*xual abuse and he is currently being detained in Brooklyn. Diddy is also awaiting trial and has been denied bail three times (viaDeadline).

Diddy’s personal life and his affiliations have come under fire for the past few months, including his long-term relationship with late-model Kim Porter. The couple shared three children and Diddy was a stepfather to her son from a previous marriage. A tell-all memoir about the relationship was posthumously released right when Diddy was arrested (viaThe Guardian).
Porter and Diddy reportedly broke up once when he began dating Jennifer Lopez. But after the infamous club shooting and their break-up, they reportedly got back together. But it was not easy for the disgraced rapper as he had to win back Porter’s family’s approval. Porter toldEssence,
I think the threat of losing his freedom forced him to grow up and take responsibility for his actions. [He was] forced to come to me to work things out. And he really had to jump through some hoops. He was on the plane every weekend, talking to my mom and my grandmother and telling the kids, ‘Daddy made a mistake.’
Porter also revealed that her family did not approve of him and there were many cousins of hers who wanted to beat him up.
Jennifer Lopez’s Mother Publicly Disregarded Diddy For The Popstar
Considering present circumstances, Diddy not gaining the approval of his partner’s family almost seems prophetic. While he was no stranger to controversy, Diddy’s image was not as muddled as it is now in the late ‘90s. He was the party king of New York who was famous for his gatherings which has not been the center of investigations (viaBBC).

Diddy was dating pop starJennifer Lopezin 1999 after the two met on the sets of a music video. While the two were going strong, their relationship was marred after the 1999 club shooting which resulted in both of them being detained (viaForbes).
Their breakup was also a major topic of discussion for tabloids and Lopez was asked about the prospect of getting back together with Diddy onThe Wendy Williams Show. While she laughed off the question, her mother, Guadalupe Rodriguez seemed to verbally disagree. In the video (viaPage Six), her mother could be seen saying,
She’s done!
Jennifer Lopez’s mother being so vocal about her affiliation with Diddy being done is being considered oddly prophetic with the rapper’s actions being controversial even back then.
