Sean 'Diddy' Combs' release from prison has been moved up by more than five weeks

According to the Federal Bureau of Prisons' website, Combs will now be released from the Fort Dix low correctional facility on April 25, 2028.

His release date was originally set for May 8 the same year, before being pushed back a few weeks to June.

Combs has been behind bars since his arrest in September 2024, while he was convicted in July 2025 on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution.

The rapper's eight-week trial earlier last year resulted in acquittals on charges of sex trafficking and racketeering, but he was convicted on prostitution-related offences.

A representative for the shamed star insisted Combs is using his time behind bars to take his sobriety "seriously".

The spokesperson dismissed claims Combs had been caught drinking homemade alcohol during his time in prison- insisting his client is focusing on remaining clean and sober.

Combs was transferred from Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, New York City to FCI Fort Dix in New Jersey on October 30.

FCI Fort Dix is a low security facility and said to have better conditions than MDC Brooklyn, where Combs had been behind bars since his arrest on various sex crime charges in September 2024.

His legal team had requested he be moved to the facility in New Jersey because of its access to drug rehabilitation schemes.

Last month, US President Donald Trump Trump acknowledged Combs had requested a pardon, but he is not currently considering granting it.

According to The New York Times, Trump said the rapper "asked me for a pardon ... through a letter" and then added: "Oh, would you like to see that letter?"

However, the publication reports the President did not produce the letter but he did indicate he's not considering Combs' request for a pardon.

Trump had previously suggested he was unsure about pardoning the I'll Be Missing You hitmaker because Combs was "very hostile" towards him when he ran for the White House.
