Ashton Kutcher “has fears” about Sean ‘P Diddy’ Combs and worries his former friend would “have no problem lying to authorities” to get out of jail, according to reports.

P Diddy is being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn after he was arrested on sex trafficking and racketeering charges. The rapper has denied all charges against him.

As Diddy awaits trial, a source has claimed Ashton is regretting their close friendship. The That ’70s Show star was friends with Diddy for two decades and even attended some of the 54-year-old’s infamous White Parties.

“[Ashton] feels lied to, betrayed, taken for granted and manipulated,” a source has claimed. They also said he fears “how this investigation will play out.”

Speaking to The Daily Mail, the source alleged: “He feels Diddy would have no problem lying to authorities and tossing out some of his famous friend’s names if it meant it could get him out of jail.”

They claimed the disgraced rapper could “say anything, do anything or turn on anyone”. They also suggested Ashton will cooperate with authorities if he is contacted about the case. The Mirror US has approached Ashton’s representative for comment.

The former Two and a Half Men star has recently been entangled in controversy following Diddy’s arrest after his 2019 interview with Sean Evans for Hot Ones resurfaced. During the show, celebrities are asked to answer a series of difficult questions while they attempt to eat rounds of chicken wings coated in spicy hot sauce. During Ashton’s episode, the actor raised red flags as he refused to offer any information of the disgraced movie mogul’s infamous parties.

After he was asked to share an anecdote from one of Diddy’s parties, Ashton responded: “Wow. Okay, I’ve got a lot I can’t tell.” Then he paused, visibly stumbling with his words, and finally said while laughing: “I can’t tell that one either.”

This left my fans to speculate what Ashton’s involvement at the parties were as Diddy’s “Freak Off” parties have become a hot topic since Diddy’s arrest.

Diddy has been charged with racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion, and transportation to engage in prostitution. He has denied the charges. The musician is currently appealing a court ruling that states he is to remain in prison while awaiting trial. Diddy’s legal team filed a notice on Monday which appealed a federal court’s decision to deny Diddy bail twice.

A source close to Diddy revealed to The Mirror US details of the latest court filing. “A notice of appeal was filed in the second circuit regarding Mr. Combs’ detention.

“This is a standard notice to the court and the actual appeal brief will be filed soon,” they said. The source also said Diddy is putting together a “dream team” of attorneys for his criminal trial.

The source continued: “Sean Combs is building his dream legal defense team, adding Anthony Ricco and Alexandra Shapiro to the trial team. Tony is one of the finest trial lawyers in the country. Alexandra is hands-down the best appellate lawyer practicing today.”
