Diddy‘s ex Cassie Ventura has gone into labor just days after testifying in the disgraced rapper’s sex trafficking trial.
Ventura, 38, is expecting her third child with husband Alex Fine with sources telling TMZ she was rushed to a New York hospital on Tuesday and is currently in the labor and delivery unit.
Ventura was around eight months pregnant when she began her testimony in the trial – which began May 12.
She and Fine already share two daughters Frankie, five, and Sunny, four and are expecting a son.
She announced her pregnancy in February.

Controversy first publicly grew around Diddy in late 2023, when he quickly settled a sex abuse case Cassie Ventura filed against him.
Multiple properties across the country he owned were raided in March of 2024 and he was arrested six months later in September.
He has remained incarcerated at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn awaiting his trial after he was refused bail on multiple occasions.
Prosecutors in Combs’ federal case say the music mogul used blackmail and violence in his efforts to silence alleged victims. Among the claims made against the entertainer is that he persuaded women to participate against their will in group sexual exhibitions referred to as ‘Freak Offs.’
Ventura’s testimony during the trial earlier this month painted a harrowing picture of her years with Diddy, describing the emotional and physical abuse she allegedly endured.
Diddy’s team did their best to undermine the jury’s sympathy for Ventura, who is eight months pregnant.
They exposed more text messages where she declared her love for the rapper, despite the abuse she says she suffered, and prompted her to admit that she neither ‘hated’ the rapper when the alleged abuse happened, nor does she ‘hate him’ today.
She confirmed that they continued their relationship even after he beat her, and even cheated on her now husband with Diddy.
Ventura said Diddy raped her, was an out-of-control drug addict, and someone she felt she couldn’t leave.
She later testified that she broke up with Diddy for good in August 2018 after she saw a photo of him with another woman he’d been dating for the last few years of their decade-long relationship. Soon after, Ventura said, she started dating her now husband, Alex Fine.
