The 38-year-old hasn\u2019t confirmed the new arrival herself just yet \u2013 but sources who know the singer told NBC News she\u2019s welcomed a baby boy. Plus, it was spoken about in court, as her friend and former stylist Deonte Nash told the trial he last spoke to Ventura \u2018after she had the baby\u2019.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s Ventura&#8217;s third child with her partner, Alex Fine, who she married in 2019. The pair share two daughters: Frankie Stone Fine who was welcomed in 2019, and their second daughter Sunny Cinco Fine, who entered the world a few years later in 2021.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Ventura announced her pregnancy three months ago on Instagram, and in a sweet tribute to Alex on Instagram, she later revealed she was carrying a boy. \u2018You\u2019ve taken care of me and my heart like no other, you\u2019re hands down the best girl dad and I\u2019m SO excited to see you now become a father to OUR SON,\u2019 she wrote, alongside a carousel of sweet family snaps.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Only two weeks ago, and while eight months pregnant, Ventura \u2013 Diddy\u2019s on\/off partner for 11 years \u2013 took the stand at his trial. Combs \u2013 known by his rap name P Diddy \u2013 is facing federal charges related to sex trafficking, racketeering and transportation to engage in prostitution, after he was arrested in September last year.<\/p>\n<p>Diddy has pleaded not guilty and denies any wrongdoing, saying his sexual relationships were consensual. In November 2024, Ventura sued the rapper for sexual assault and abuse \u2013 and while testifying in court, Ventura said the lawsuit was settled for $20million.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>During the trial, Ventura said that \u2013 initially \u2013 she consented to drug-fuelled \u2018freak-offs\u2019, as she was \u2018in love and wanted to make him happy\u2019. Later, Ventura cried during the trial, as she recalled how Diddy hit her during freak-offs, saying she felt like \u2018dirt\u2019. She also testified Diddy, and male escorts, would urinate on her \u2013 which she called \u2018too much\u2019 and \u2018disgusting\u2019.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text module_class=&#8221;custom-quote&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.20.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; header_2_font=&#8221;Libre Bodoni|||on|||||&#8221; header_2_text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; header_2_text_color=&#8221;#333333&#8243; header_2_font_size=&#8221;40px&#8221; header_2_line_height=&#8221;1.2em&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<h2 class=\"p1\">&#8216;I\u2019m so excited to see you now become a father to our son&#8217; \u2013 Cassie Ventura to Alex Fine<\/h2>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.20.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<p>Following her four days of testimony, Ventura and Fine released an emotional joint statement. \u2018This week has been extremely challenging, but also remarkably empowering and healing for me,\u2019 Ventura&#8217;s statement read. \u2018I hope that my testimony has given strength and a voice to other survivors, and can help others who have suffered to speak up and also heal from the abuse and fear.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>The couple also said they wouldn\u2019t be releasing further statements on the matter, and that they intend to focus on their new arrival. \u2018I\u2019m glad to put this chapter of my life to rest,\u2019 she added. \u2018As I turn to focus on the conclusion of my pregnancy, I ask for privacy for me and for my growing family.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Over the past five days, the world has gotten to witness the strength and bravery of my wife freeing herself of her past,\u2019 her husband wrote.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I\u00a0have felt so many things sitting there,\u2019 he continued. \u2018I have felt profound anger that she has been subjected to sitting in front of a person who tried to break her. So to him and all of those who helped him along the way, please know this: You did not\u2026You did not break the souls of a mother who gives the best hugs and plays the silliest games with our little girls. You did not break the woman who has made me a better man.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Fine and Ventura started dating in 2018, and Ventura told the court how her husband helped her process the alleged abuse which happened while she was with Diddy. In one moment, Ventura became emotional as she recalled how she felt suicidal after Diddy allegedly raped her following their break-up. But, Ventura said, Fine \u2018would not let\u2019 her hurt herself. \u2018I couldn\u2019t take the pain that I was in anymore, and so I just tried to walk out the front door into traffic and my husband would not let me,\u2019 she told the court.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In his statement, the 32-year-old said he \u2018did not save Cassie, as some have said\u2019. \u2018To say that is an insult to the years of painful work my wife has done to save herself,\u2019 he continued. \u2018Cassie saved Cassie. She alone broke free from abuse, coercion, violence and threats. She did the work of fighting the demons that only a demon himself could have done to her. All I have done is love her as she has loved me.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>His statement very poignantly ended with a tribute to his wife and their son, as he wrote:\u00a0\u2018We appreciate all of the love and support we have received, and we ask that you respect our privacy as we welcome our son into a world that is now safer because of his mom.\u2019\u00a0<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider color=&#8221;#111111&#8243; divider_position=&#8221;center&#8221; divider_weight=&#8221;2px&#8221; module_class=&#8221;custom-divider&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.20.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;0px||0px||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||0px||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text module_class=&#8221;credit-texts&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.20.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font=&#8221;|||on|||||&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;center&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<p><b>Photo: <\/b>IMAGO<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>She and her husband Alex Fine welcomed their third child on 27 May.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":10333,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10330","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-feature"],"acf":[],"modified_by":"guestgrazia","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10330","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10330"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10330\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10339,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10330\/revisions\/10339"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10333"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10330"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10330"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10330"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
