Sean “Diddy” Combs reportedly suffered a medical emergency in prison.
According to TMZ, Diddy, 56, was transported out of FCI Fort Dix in New Jersey on Saturday, October 10, after sustaining a head injury. He was reportedly taken back to the prison in the early hours of Sunday, October 11.
When reached for comment, Diddy’s rep told Us, “We are aware of the reports concerning Sean Combs and are working to confirm the circumstances. Sean’s health and well-being are our immediate concern, and we appreciate everyone who has reached out.”
In a statement to Us on Monday, October 12, FCI Fort Dix shared, “For privacy, safety, and security reasons, we do not comment on the conditions of confinement for any incarcerated individual, including quarters assignment or medical status.”
The disgraced music mogul is currently serving a four-year sentence after his conviction on two counts of transportation for prostitution in July 2025. Diddy has maintained his innocence and pleaded not guilty. His legal team has appealed the case and is awaiting a decision from a judge.
“He’s focused on the appeal and looking back at his life and trying to figure out ways to improve and be a better person,” Diddy’s lawyer Juda Engelmayer said in a June Us cover story. “He’s become like a paralegal, if not a lawyer already. My experience [is that] clients who are deeply involved in their cases are the ones who get further.”
Earlier this month, news broke that Diddy was heading back into the Special Housing Unit (also known as solitary confinement) as NBC News reported he was living a pampered lifestyle while incarcerated. His spokesperson downplayed the details of the report.
“The continued scrutiny of every mundane detail of Sean Combs’s life in prison has reached the point where the media characterizes ordinary prison life as news,” the spokesperson shared with NBC News. “The only real news is that Sean continues to serve his sentence while awaiting the court’s decision on his appeal.”
Us also confirmed earlier this month that Diddy’s release date was pushed back once again. He is now set to be released from FCI Fort Dix on March 2, 2028, after previously being scheduled for January 21, 2028, per Bureau of Prisons (BOP) records.
“For privacy, safety and security reasons, we do not comment on the conditions of confinement for any incarcerated individual, including reasons for a change in release date,” the BOP told People, who reported the news.
In a statement to Us on Wednesday, October 7, a spokesperson for Diddy shared, “We are never given any explanation for how the BOP calculates or adjusts projected release dates, so we cannot speak to the reason for any change.”
The statement continued, “Sean remains focused on serving his time, awaiting the decision on his appeal and looking forward to spending quality time with his family when he returns home.”
