Cassie Ventura shared a message of thanks in her first Instagram post since video of Sean “Diddy” Combs attacking her in a hotel hallway surfaced.
Sean “Diddy” Combs’ ex Cassie Ventura broke her silence days after a video leaked showing the rapper beating her in a hotel hallway in 2016.
The video footage showed the singer attempting to leave the hotel as Combs chased her down.
“Thank you for all the love and support from my family, friends, strangers and those I have yet to meet,” Ventura wrote Thursday on Instagram. “The outpouring of love has created a place for my younger self to settle and feel safe now, but this is only the beginning.”
“Domestic Violence is THE issue,” she continued. “It broke me down to someone I never thought I would become. With a lot of hard work, I am better today, but I will always be recovering from my past.”
Ventura encouraged her 10 million Instagram followers to believe victims when they speak out about domestic violence.
“Thank you to everyone that has taken the time to take this matter seriously,” Ventura wrote.
