THE MOTHER of P Diddy’s youngest child made a surprise appearance on the first day of his sex trafficking trial on May 12.

Dana Tran made an unanticipated appearance in Manhattan when she attended the Southern District of New York Federal Court. Here’s everything we have learned about the woman who is the mother of his child.

Who is Dana Tran?

Dana Tran was born in 1996 to Vietnam War refugees in the United States.

She studied Public Health at the University of California between 2012 and 2016 before studying Cyber Security Strategy at Georgetown until 2019. 

Dana has spoken of her heritage and what her parents went through as they escaped Vietnam and settled in the US.

“My father watched his home be taken by the oppressor and be forced to live in the chicken coop,’ she wrote in an Instagram post last year. 

“As they danced in what was once his living room. My father still did not grow up with hate in his heart.

“I was raised to know that children are innocent. No ifs, ands, or buts.”

What does Dana Tran do for a living? 

Dana is a cybersecurity director for Siemens, officially working as the Global Manager of Industrial Cyber and Digital Security. 

She is also a part-time model.

When did Dana Tran and Diddy get together?

Amidst Diddy’s legal battles, it was revealed that his most recent child was with the Vietnamese tech professional. 

It is unknown when they met, but their baby, Love Sean, was born in October 2022. 

Although the information about their child has surfaced, Diddy, whose real name is Sean Combs, has not acknowledged being in a relationship with the Siemens executive.

It is also unknown whether the pair are still together, but the Vietnamese model did make a surprise appearance on the first day of Diddy’s trial.

How many kids do Dana Tran and Diddy share?

Tran and Diddy only have one child together – Love Sean Combs – who was born in October 2022. 

Love Sean is regularly featured on Tran’s Instagram account, with the model sharing her joy of being her mother. 

She said: “’Becoming a Mother has shown me how much God loves me. 

“I never considered love from our creator until I became a channel to bring God’s creation into the world. To be honest, I likely didn’t think about it because I felt undeserving of it.”

“The way I stare in absolute awe at Love, not wanting to miss any moment no matter how small. 

“Unconditionally loving my little human gave me a glimpse of how much God loves me.”

Diddy is known to have seven children, with Love Sean being his youngest. 

Love Sean’s half-siblings include:

The rapper frequently posts his youngest son on social media before he was arrested in September 2024. 

Who are Diddy’s other children?

Former model Kim Porter dated Diddy on and off from 1994 to 2007.

They had three children together: 26-year-old Christian, and twin daughters Jessie and D’Lila, 17.

Porter had her first child, son Quincy, 33, with her former husband singer Al B, who Diddy later adopted when he was just three years old.

The rapper also shares his son Justin, 30, with stylist Misa Hylton, and daughter Chance, 18, with Sarah Chapman.

After their dad’s arrest, all six children released a joint statement defending him.

Quincy shared an snap of the family sitting on a bouncy castle together with the mogul in the middle and Dana, his mother, and children surrounding him.

He wrote: “Many have judged both him and us based on accusations, conspiracy theories, and false narratives that have spiraled into absurdity on social media.

“We stand united, supporting you every step of the way.

“We hold onto the truth, knowing it will prevail, and nothing will break the strength of our family.

“WE MISS YOU & LOVE YOU DAD.”
