Model, Actress & Diddy’s Ex-Girlfriend Kim Porter found Dead at 47

According to reports from TMZ, model and actress Kim Porter was found dead today in her Los Angeles home.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ, Kim went to bed early last night, because she wasn’t feeling well and when family members went to wake her Thursday she was non-responsive.  Paramedics pronounced Kim dead at her home.

As for the cause … we’re told she was battling an illness — either the flu or pneumonia — over the last few days and was being treated with Saline and vitamins. Authorities are also looking at a recent trip Kim took to Africa, to determine if she contracted a disease. 

No illegal drugs were found. 

The coroner will perform an autopsy and perform toxicology tests.  

The 47-year old mother of four was found dead after weeks of suffering flu-like symptoms, and possibly pneumonia.

Kim Porter, who dated entertainer P.Diddy on and off for 13 years, between 1994 and 2007, is a mom to four children –  Quincy Brown (from a previous relationship) Christian Casey Combs, Jessie James Combs, and D’Lila Star Combs (with Diddy).

TMZ reports that the emergency call to 911 had come in as a patient in cardiac arrest.

P.Diddy’s rep Cindi Berger confirmed the news to TMZ saying, “Sadly, I can confirm the passing of Kim Porter. I ask that you give the families privacy at this time.”
