Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ prison release date gets moved up even more
Sean “Diddy” Combs’ time in federal prison has been reduced again.
The embattled music mogul is now set to be released on Feb. 23, 2028, Page Six confirmed on Tuesday.
The 56-year-old disgraced rapper was initially sentenced to 50 months behind bars in October 2025 after being convicted on two counts of transportation for prostitution.
His original release date was May 8, 2028 — and was pushed back to June 4 of that same year in November 2025.
The pushback allegedly stemmed from Combs violating multiple prison rules, from reportedly having a three-way phone call and consuming “homemade alcohol.”
However, Page Six exclusively revealed in March that Combs shaved six weeks off of his sentence.
At the time, his new release date was April 25, 2028, with the change perhaps being linked to Combs being accepted into a drug-abuse rehabilitation program.
His rep told us, “Mr. Combs is an active participant in the Residential Drug Abuse Program and has taken his rehabilitation process seriously from the start. He is fully engaged in his work, focused on growth and committed to positive change.”
Combs’ sentence was subsequently reduced yet again to April 15.
Combs’ rep did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment on the latest reduction.
The Grammy winner’s lawyers appealed his July 2025 conviction and sentencing last December — and continued to fight for this in a March filing.
Calling the situation a “perversion of justice,” the lawyers asked for Combs’ “immediate release and a judgment of acquittal or at least vacate and remand for resentencing.”
Federal prosecutors, meanwhile, want the court to reject the appeal, which is still pending.
Combs was arrested in September 2024 and charged with racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion and transportation to engage in prostitution.
He was acquitted of the more serious charges after a lengthy trial.
