Diddy Silenced Biggie’s Mom | What She Told Faith Before She Died
Los Angeles, June 5, 2025 – Newly surfaced court filings in the Quincy Combs civil suit against Sean “Diddy” Combs reveal that Voletta Wallace, mother of the late Christopher “Biggie Smalls” Wallace, confided in Faith Combs shortly before her passing—and alleged that Diddy pressured her into silence about the Combs family’s internal disputes.
Background
Voletta Wallace (77) was a pillar of the hip-hop community and a close friend of Faith Combs, Quincy’s adoptive mother.
In March 2023, Voletta and Faith met privately at Faith’s Malibu home to discuss Faith’s concerns over Quincy’s well-being under Diddy’s guardianship.
Voletta died unexpectedly in September 2023; until now, her comments remained sealed under a protective order.
What Voletta Told Faith
According to a sworn affidavit filed by Faith Combs on June 5, 2025:
-
“He told me to keep my mouth shut.”
Voletta claimed that in mid-2022, Diddy summoned her to his Los Angeles estate, warning that any public commentary about the Combs family “would harm the children—and my friend Faith.”
Fear of Reprisal
She said Diddy threatened to cut off all charitable support to the Wallace family if she spoke to media or social-service agencies about Quincy’s medical treatments.
A Plea for Help
Voletta reportedly told Faith, “I can’t stand by and watch what they’re doing to Quincy. But I’m terrified they’ll destroy me if I speak up.”
Evidence Submitted
Affidavit of Faith Combs: Describes a 45-minute Zoom call recordings made by Faith, in which Voletta’s voice is heard asking for assurance of protection.
Email Exchange: A May 2022 email from Voletta to Diddy’s chief of staff reads, “I’m concerned about Quincy. Please tell Sean I won’t say anything if he stops these secret injections.”
Memorandum: Notes taken by Faith immediately after the March 2023 meeting confirm Voletta’s emotional distress and explicit references to Diddy’s intimidation tactics.
Implications for the Trial
Pattern of Intimidation: These revelations bolster Quincy’s claims that Sean Combs systematically suppressed anyone who dared question his parenting methods.
Credibility Boost: Voletta was widely respected and had no apparent motive to lie—her statements could tip jurors toward finding “coercive control.”
Potential Witnesses: Quincy’s legal team signals intent to call Faith to testify about the meeting and introduce audio transcripts as demonstrative evidence.
Defense Response
Lead counsel Michael Grant issued a statement this afternoon:
“Ms. Wallace’s comments are hearsay and wholly uncorroborated. This is a last-ditch smear tactic designed to distract from Quincy’s own inconsistent testimony.”
Grant is expected to file a motion to strike the affidavit, arguing that Voletta’s remarks cannot be admitted without direct cross-examination.
Public Reaction
Within minutes of the filing:
#VolettaSpeaks trended on X, with fans praising Biggie’s mom for her courage.
Hip-hop community figures shared memories of Voletta’s activism and support for young artists.
Some commentators warned against overreliance on “second-hand” allegations.
What’s Next?
Evidentiary Hearing: Judge Miranda Hall will hear arguments on June 8 regarding the admissibility of Faith’s affidavit and related recordings.
Testimony to Come: If admitted, Faith Combs is slated to testify on Day 18 of the hearing, expected to deepen the narrative of familial coercion.
Verdict Timeline: With closing arguments still set for June 10, these late-breaking revelations could be decisive in the jury’s final emotional-distress and punitive-damages determinations.
As the trial hurtles toward its conclusion, Voletta Wallace’s last words—unheard until now—may prove one of the most impactful factors in uncovering what truly happened behind the walls of the Combs estate.
