Whether they like it or not, major Hollywood stars are being thrust into the spotlight following the arrest of Sean “Diddy” Combs, including his ex-girlfriend Jennifer Lopez, who was photographed in bed with him and Aaliyah in a resurfaced image.

With the recent arrest of the hip-hop mogul on charges of sex trafficking and racketeering, the past is catching up and haunting those who once mingled with the disgraced artist.

Sean “Diddy” Combs’ recent arrest on charges of sex trafficking and racketeering has cast a harsh spotlight on his past relationships and social circles. The accused rapper and his ex, Jennifer Lopez, were pictured looking cozy in bed with Aaliyah, Andre Harrell, and others.

“Has anyone considered the fact that JLO is traumatized by Diddy, which is why she can’t stay married?” one person commented.

Jennifer’s first husband, Ojani Noa, previously spoke about how he would get jealous when she spent time with Diddy while they were married. “I called Jen and asked why she was going out on dates with him, and she said, ‘It’s just business. This is what I’m being told I have to do,’” he once told the Daily Mail.

“I was jealous and would scream, ‘But you are married!’” The pop diva tied the knot with Ojani in 1997 and was married to him for less than a year.

“That divorce with Ben Affleck makes more sense now,” one person commented on the resurfaced photo.

The “Let’s Get Loud” singer then dated Diddy for about two years before calling it quits in 2001.

“I was in this relationship with Puff where I was totally crying, crazy, and losing control; it really took my whole life in a tailspin,” she told Vibe magazine in 2003, as quoted by Entertainment Weekly.

Though she never caught him, she said she was sure he was cheating on her with other women.

“I never caught him, but I just knew,” she said at the time. “He’d say he was going to a club for a couple of hours and then never come back that night.”

On Tuesday (September 17), Diddy was ordered held without bail after being charged with sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy, and transportation for prostitution.

The 54-year-old pleaded not guilty to the charges in federal court in New York City.

“I never caught him, but I just knew,” the pop diva previously said about her relationship with the “I’ll Be Missing You” rapper. “He’d say he was going to a club for a couple of hours and then never come back that night.”

Prosecutors sought detention for the rapper, arguing that he “poses an ongoing and significant danger to the community, has repeatedly engaged in obstructive conduct, and presents a serious flight risk,” CBS News reported.

The hip-hop mogul is accused of being part of a criminal organization that engaged in or attempted to engage in sex trafficking, kidnapping, forced labor, arson, bribery, and other offenses. U.S. Attorney Damian Williams said there were multiple victims involved. “The indictment alleges that between at least 2008 and the present, Combs abused, threatened, and coerced victims to fulfill his sexual desires, protect his reputation, and conceal his conduct,” Williams said during a press conference on Tuesday.

“As alleged in the indictment, to carry out this conduct, Sean Combs led and participated in a racketeering conspiracy that used the business empire he controlled to carry out criminal activity.”
