Sean “Diddy” Combs has apologised for his “inexcusable” behaviour after CCTV appeared to show him attacking singer Casandra “Cassie” Ventura.
Speaking in a video posted to his Instagram page, the rap star said he took full responsibility for his actions in the clip.
The footage, aired by CNN earlier this week, appeared to show Mr Combs kicking and pushing Ms Ventura in a hotel hallway.
“I was disgusted when I did it. I’m disgusted now,” he said in his statement.
“I went and I sought out professional help. I got into going to therapy, going to rehab. I had to ask God for his mercy and grace. I’m so sorry.”
The BBC has not independently verified the video, which appears to be a compilation of surveillance footage angles dated 5 March 2016.
According to CNN, it was filmed at the now-closed InterContinental Hotel in Century City, Los Angeles. (BBC News)
