Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs busted for drinking alcohol behind bars: report

Sean “Diddy” Combs is reportedly imbibing in prison.

The music mogul has been in “trouble with prison officials” at Fort Dix for consuming “homemade alcohol,” sources told TMZ on Friday.

The outlet reported that the DIY recipe he was caught drinking involves sugar, Fanta soda and apples, which are mixed and fermented for two weeks to make an alcoholic beverage.

Officials at the low-security prison — where Combs, 56, is serving four years for prostitution-related charges — had reportedly decided to move him from his old unit to a new one.

However, multiple sources told the outlet that the decision has been reversed and he will remain in his original unit.

A prison official told the outlet that they had “no information” about the alleged incident.

Page Six has reached out to reps for Combs.

Prior to his sentencing last month, the Sean John designer claimed in a letter to Judge Arun Subramanian that he was “sober for the first time in 25 years.”

“I can’t change the past, but I can change the future,” he wrote at the time, while pleading “for mercy.”

“I know that God put me here to transform me. Since incarceration, I have gone through a spiritual reset,” he continued.

“I’m on a journey that will take time and hard work. I’m proud to say I’m working harder than I ever have before. I’m committed to the journey of remaining a drug free, non-violent and peaceful person. I thank God that I’m stronger, wiser, clean, clear and sober. God makes no mistakes.”

A day later, on Oct. 3, the Manhattan federal court sentenced the “I’ll Be Missing You” rapper to four years and two months in prison.

He was also ordered to participate in substance abuse and mental health programs, and pay the court a $500,000 fine. The rapper is currently set for a release from prison on May 8, 2028.

Combs was initially smiling and shaking hands with inmates in the prison yard.

The “Bad Boy For Life” hitmaker celebrated his 56th birthday behind bars on Tuesday — where he was offered a choice between navy beans and cheese pizza for his birthday dinner, according to People.
