Sean "Diddy" Combs once beat ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura so badly she needed stiches on her forehead, the music mogul's former stylist has testified at his trial. Deonte Nash, who styled both Mr Combs and Ms Ventura, told the court there were times when he witnessed his boss attacking his then-girlfriend and others.

The news comes a little over 10 days after the R&B singer completed her four-day testimony in Combs' federal criminal trial while eight-and-a-half months pregnant.

Cassie Ventura gave birth on Tuesday, roughly two weeks after she took the stand as a witness in Sean Combs' federal sex trafficking trial, a source familiar with the matter confirmed to NBC News.
