A side character in the overall saga, Brendan Paul found himself at the fore in the final days of the government’s case against Sean Combs.

Brendan Paul, who worked for Diddy as his personal assistant for two years, gave evidence. He said he worked 80-100 hours a week and he learnt a lot from his former boss, but now his feelings towards Diddy are 'complicated'.

Paul, who was arrested on charges of cocaine possession at a Miami airport in 2024, testified for the prosecution under an immunity order.
