Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs Hospitalized After Suffering Head Injury in Prison

Sean “Diddy” Combs was taken from federal prison to the hospital on Saturday after suffering a reported head injury.

The 56-year-old mogul, who is currently serving a 50-month sentence at Fort Dix in New Jersey, was apparently rushed to the hospital early on Saturday morning for a “non-life-threatening injury,” reports the Los Angeles Times. He was conscious and speaking before hospitalization, and returned to the prison later that day, according to TMZ. The cause of the injury is currently unknown.

“We are aware of the reports concerning Sean Combs and are working to confirm the circumstances,” said Combs’ rep in a statement to Variety. “Sean’s health and well-being are our immediate concern, and we appreciate everyone who has reached out.”

Combs recently made news for his supposed VIP treatment at Fort Dix. An NBC News report in late September claimed that Combs has access to contraband cellphones to “scroll Instagram and scan nude and sexually explicit photos that an old girlfriend sends him.” On weekends, he has access to liquor that was smuggled in by guards. Following the report’s publication, Combs was sanctioned by prison guards for “disruptive conduct” and was stripped of 41 days of good conduct time, delaying his release from January to March 2028.

The musician is currently serving a four-year sentence after he was convicted on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution in October 2025. His legal troubles have continued during his incarceration. Just last week, he was ordered to pay NBCUniversal $477,700 in legal fees after losing a $100 million defamation suit over the documentary “Diddy: The Making of a Bad Boy.”
