Combs recently posed forEssence‘s May issue with his daughters, opening up in the accompanying interview about the twins’ late motherKim Porterand how theMother’s Dayholiday was going to be difficult without her.
“Mother’s Day is going to hurt,” Combs said in an emotional audio clip. “We definitely are going to celebrate all the mothers. We’re not going to get in the way of that. Honestly, anybody that has lost a mother or lost a soulmate — it takes time. It takes time.”
“They say time heals all wounds when it comes to mothers … I don’t think that’s the case,” he added. That’s not a negative thing because as people, we need wounds. You need something to stingyou sometimes and keep you on pointand teach you a lesson.”
Combs said while crying, “I don’t know what I’m going to do. I’m going to figure something out though. This hurts so much. I know thatpeople want to hear the good stuff, but it hurts and there ain’t no way around that.”
