Ex-Wife Of Diddy's 'Sex Slave' Speaks Out, Accuses Rapper Of 'Destroying' His Life Amid Sex-Crimes Trial
Tonia Troutwine, the ex-wife of Sean "Diddy" Combs' alleged "sex slave," Jonathan Oddi, has opened up about how the rapper "destroyed" his life. She claimed that her ex-husband lived a healthy and drug-free life prior to meeting the music mogul, but that all changed when he became the "sex slave" to the rapper and his ex-partner, Cassandra "Cassie" Ventura. Tonia Troutwine also stated that the rapper's dark influence still haunts her ex-husband despite him knowing that Sean "Diddy" Combs is in jail and being prosecuted for sex crimes charges. Amid Diddy's ongoing sex crime trial, the ex-wife of his alleged "sex slave" has offered rare insight into how the rapper reportedly ruined Jonathan Oddi's life. Speaking with TMZ, Tonia Troutwine shared that Oddi's involvement with Diddy and his so-called "freak off" sessions marked the beginning of a downward spiral for her former husband, whom she was married to for six years. She specifically pointed out that Oddi lived a healthy lifestyle before meeting Diddy and had no involvement with alcohol or drugs. However, "everything that went down with Diddy destroyed him" and seemingly set him on a path that ultimately led to his 2018 arrest for shooting up a Trump hotel. At the moment, Oddi is currently in prison on the charges that stemmed from the incident, just like Diddy is also being detained in a county jail during his ongoing trial. Still, Troutwine claims that her former husband fears a possible retaliation from the embattled rapper despite his current situation. The claims from Troutwine come after she confirmed that her ex-husband indeed signed an NDA with Diddy around the time of their separation in 2014. Oddi had previously told the police during his 2018 arrest that he signed the NDA in exchange for $5 million. At the time, he also alleged that Diddy was "scared" he would "expose" him, seemingly referencing the numerous "freak offs" he had with the rapper and his ex-girlfriend Cassie. "I had sex with Cassie [Ventura] and Sean [Combs]. Basically, he would masturbate and tell me what to do to Cassie. I was like a sex slave. For them, that's what I was," Oddi told the police at the time. The NDA in question was obtained by the Daily Mail and appears to bear Diddy's signature, though it remains unclear whether the signature is authentic or forged. Previously, Troutwine also claimed that her former husband's breakdown began some months before Ventura officially ended her relationship with Diddy in 2018. "I don't think it's a coincidence," she told the outlet. "So, if any of this is true — that P. Diddy abused Cassie or was being aggressive, Johnny definitely would've softened that situation and would've tolerated the abuse instead. He would've tried to help the situation and not make Cassie feel bad about it." Unsurprisingly, Oddi's name has come up in Diddy's ongoing trial despite not being one of the witnesses on the federal prosecutors' list. Cassie, who is the prosecution's lead witness, claimed that Oddi might have filed one of their "freak offs" encounters in 2013. Amid the trial, many other details about Diddy's alleged "freak offs" have also been revealed, particularly through the testimony of Cassie, per CNN. The singer claimed that many of Diddy's assistants and personnel were fully involved in providing logistics such as baby oil, Astroglide, and condoms. They were also often responsible for cleaning up after the sessions and booking hotel rooms when the parties took place in other states. According to Cassie, Diddy tasked her with the duty of finding escorts for the "freak offs." He would then choose who to hire from among them and arrange for their transportation to his location. Each escort was typically paid between $1,500 and $6,000 in cash only. Cassie also stated that she always participated in the "freak offs" because she didn't have "much of a choice," adding that she was "basically a sex worker." In November 2023, Cassie opened the floodgates of lawsuits against Diddy when she filed a bombshell suit accusing him of sexual assault. Twenty-four hours after the lawsuit was filed, it was settled out of court, with Diddy paying his ex-girlfriend an undisclosed sum at the time. However, according to Variety, during her testimony on Wednesday, May 14, 2025, Cassie finally confirmed that Diddy and his companies paid her $20 million to settle the lawsuit. When asked why she decided to testify against Diddy, Cassie said, "I'm here to do the right thing. I can't carry this anymore … the shame, the guilt."

Cassie confirms Trump hotel shooter Jonathan Oddi's 'sex slave' claims at Diddy trial
Cassie Ventura has admitted that she and Sean ' Diddy ' Combs had sexual relations with the gunman who opened fire on Donald Trump 's Doral Miami resort. Ventura took the stand during Combs' sex trafficking trial Friday for more cross-examination Friday by the defense team. The R&B singer was questioned about her relationship with Jonathan Oddi, a former porn star who fired shots at Trump's Doral Miami resort in 2018 and claimed during his arrest that he was a 'sex slave' for Combs. Ventura told the court that she had met Oddi multiple times and even once feared that he had secretly recorded video of one of their 'freak-off' sex parties. She testified that when she informed Combs about the video that he was concerned about it getting out and vowed to 'take care of it'. Ventura said she 'didn't trust' Oddi and 'believes' their relationship ended after she caught him allegedly taping the sex session. Oddi claimed during his arrest in 2018 that 'I had sex with Cassie and Sean' and that Combs had asked him to sign an NDA agreement. His allegations were immediately dismissed as farfetched conspiracy theories. But Daily Mail exclusively revealed last week that Oddi signed a non-disclosure agreement with Combs in exchange for $5 million. Ventura admitted on the stand Friday that she believed Oddi had taken a secret video of her, Combs and himself at a freak-off party. Defense attorney Anna Estevao, probing Ventura about the encounter with Oddi, asked if he 'seemed volatile'. 'I don't know, I didn't trust him,' she told the court, prompting Combs' attorney to ask if Oddi was 'was threatening to release a sex video of you'. Ventura replied: 'I don't know he actually did that….I don't remember…I was in the room with him and saw the phone up and told Sean.' She admitted she was concerned that Oddi had been recording and claims that Sean told her 'I'll take care of it'. Estevao also asked if she ended her relationship with Oddi after learning about the 'secret recording'. 'I believe so,' Ventura answered. The defense added '(If he did this) you never would have had a Freak Off with him again?', to which Ventura replied: 'No.' Ventura agreed that Combs spent a large sum of money and a significant amount of time trying to make sure the video went away, but said she 'didn't know the details' of his arrangement with Oddi. Ventura confirmed during earlier testimony this week that she had slept with Oddi, allegedly under the orders of her controlling rapper boyfriend. Oddi was arrested in May 2018 after he opened fire in Trump's Doral Miami resort. He was taken down by police and then interrogated about his motives. It was then that he revealed his links to Combs and Ventura. 'I had sex with Cassie [Ventura] and Sean [Combs],' Oddi said in the police video. 'Basically, he would masturbate and tell me what to do to Cassie. I was like a sex slave. For them, that's what I was.' At the time, his comments were dismissed as the delusions of a mentally ill maniac. But documents seen by the Daily Mail last week revealed an NDA was signed by Oddi and Combs in 2014. Oddi told police in Doral that he signed the document in exchange for $5 million. 'He's scared I will expose him,' he said of the rapper. 'My settlement put me in a box. Basically, I couldn't talk because I was going to be sued. They kept following me.' Oddi also claimed to have turned over a tape to Diddy's then lawyer, Mark Geragos. The contents of that alleged tape are unknown. Ventura was back on the witness stand for a second day of cross-examination by Combs' lawyers, after having been forced the day before to read aloud explicit and lurid messages she sent Combs during their tumultuous, nearly 11-year relationship that ended in 2018. The singer is the prosecution's star witness. Her lawsuit in 2023 accused Combs of physical and sexual abuse, and it set in motion the investigation which culminated in this month's trial. Several other women who accuse him of abuse are set to testify. Prosecutors allege that Combs used his fame and fortune to orchestrate an empire of exploitation, coercing women into abusive sex parties. His lawyers argue that all the sexual acts were consensual, and although he could be violent, he never veered into sex trafficking and racketeering. Combs has pleaded not guilty to federal sex trafficking and racketeering charges. His defense says that, although he could be violent, nothing he did amounted to a criminal enterprise. Combs insists all the sex was consensual.

Ex-porn star who claimed to be Diddy sex slave signed NDA in exchange for $5 million: report
A former porn star who allegedly shot up one of President Trump's Florida resorts before claiming to have been Sean 'Diddy' Combs' sex slave had signed an NDA with the disgraced rapper, according to a report on Wednesday. Jonathan Oddi was arrested in 2018 after he was reportedly caught on camera carrying a US flag and ranting about the president as he stormed into the lobby of the Trump National Doral Golf Club before getting into a shootout with police, reports the New York Post. Following his arrest, Oddi made a series of claims to police, including that he had been kept as a 'sex slave' by Combs, video from the interview shows. 'I had sex with Cassie [Ventura] and Sean [Combs]. Basically, he would masturbate and tell me what to do to Cassie. I was like a sex slave. For them, that's what I was,' Oddi said. A picture of an NDA allegedly signed by Oddi and Combs in Miami in 2014 emerged Wednesday — seemingly backing up the former porn star's ties with the rapper, who is facing trial for alleged sex abuse and trafficking. Oddi said he agreed to the NDA in exchange for $5 million — and it was signed around the same time as he divorced his wife, lawyer Tonia Troutwine, she told the Daily Mail, which first published the document. 'The date of that contract was around the same time as our divorce. I almost feel like he divorced me because he came to all this money and so I wouldn't claim it,' Troutwine said. 'But our lives were already going in different paths. I started feeling like a third wheel in someone else's life rather than a wife,' she added. Oddi started to change after moving from his job as a stripper at bachelorette parties to becoming a porn star, Troutwine said. He met Diddy around this time at a party at the ultra-exclusive Star Island in Miami Beach, Troutwine believes. As Oddi spent less time with his wife, she believes he started partying more with Combs and Ventura. 'Diddy just has those radiating personalities, and I can tell that he really enjoyed the attention, you know. He likes to be the king. Johnny would've played perfectly into that,' she said. Troutwine decided to get out of the marriage after discovering Oddi was having an affair with a fellow porn star, she said. They had filed for divorce by August 2014, but were still on good terms. 'He kept on insisting that we sign the divorce paperwork, which I thought was very odd how he wanted to get things going so quickly,' Troutwine said. 'It was only later that I found out he had signed this agreement.' Oddi claimed he was making just $2,000 a month as a fitness trainer and had a net worth of negative $1,800 in the divorce documents. Despite that, he went on a spending spree less than a month after the divorce was finalised, buying five distressed properties for $765,000 in the space of two months, NBC Miami reported, citing Miami-Dade County property records. All of the properties were purchased mortgage-free, suggesting they were bought with cash. This would have been around the same time he allegedly received his $5 million windfall from Diddy. Troutwine lost contact with Oddi until she heard about his dramatic shootout with cops in May 2018. After carrying an American flag into the golf resort lobby, Oddi began shouting about Trump before allegedly shooting at officers, who shot him in the legs before arresting him, investigators said. He faces charges of attempted murder of law enforcement officers, armed burglary, and armed grand theft and is still in a Florida jail awaiting trial. Oddi's apparent breakdown came just months before Cassie Ventura ended her relationship with Combs for good, Troutwine pointed out. 'I don't think it's a coincidence. So, if any of this is true — that P. Diddy abused Cassie or was being aggressive, Johnny definitely would've softened that situation and would've tolerated the abuse instead. He would've tried to help the situation and not make Cassie feel bad about it,' Troutwine said. She said she has spoken to her ex-husband since his arrest, and said that he had heard his interrogation video with police had resurfaced in the wake of the damaging allegations against Combs. Ventura accused Combs of drugging, raping and beating her during their on-off relationship spanning 10 years in her civil lawsuit filed against the Bad Boy Records mogul in November 2023. Combs allegedly 'forced Ms. Ventura to engage in sex acts with male sex workers while masturbating and filming the encounters,' the complaint states, matching some of the claims made by Oddi. 'He's scared I will expose him,' Oddi said of Combs in his police interrogation. 'My settlement put me in a box. Basically, I couldn't talk because I was going to be sued. They kept following me.' It isn't known who the 'they' is that Oddi was referring to. Combs is alleged to have forced his victims into 'freak offs' — days-long orgies involving male sex workers — federal prosecutors alleged in a superseding indictment filed in April. 'Sometimes unbeknown to the victims, Combs kept videos he filmed of victims engaging in sex acts with commercial sex workers,' prosecutors wrote in the criminal complaint. 'After freak offs, Combs and the victims typically received IV fluids to recover from the physical exertion and drug use.' Combs has pleaded not guilty and denied all the allegations against him. He appeared in a Manhattan court this week for jury selection in his criminal case, where Ventura is expected to testify next month.
