Social Media Reacts To Diddy’s Apology
The majority of the Roommates who commented on The Shade Room’s Instagram report didn’t think Sean was sincere.
@tiahnaaaa wrote, “Babes I thought you said her allegations weren’t true 30 million dollars ago?”
“Sounds just like an abuser. Apologetic because he got caught. Goodbye.” @theimanijoy added.
@1brotherjoshua empathized with Diddy writing, “I’m so glad God don’t treat us how we treat each other when we’ve done wrong. There wouldn’t be a soul left if He punished us for all of our sins.”
@mauibigelow felt Combs should have directly apologized to Cassie writing, “He DID NOT utter one apology to the person that deserves it, Cassie. A true narcissist trying to gain sympathy and cover his tracks. He never would have apologized if the video did not come out and he never apologized specifically to the woman he assaulted.”
Roommate, @melissamw15 said, “Not him apologizing immediately after he gets caught, when he was denying it all along. nothing like a ‘sincere apology’ though.”
