Cassie Ventura
Singer Cassie Ventura has welcomed her third child, a baby boy, with her husband Alex Fine. The couple, who are already parents to two daughters, Frankie and Sunny, expanded their growing family earlier this week.
The news was confirmed by celebrity stylist Deonte Nash, who revealed during his testimony in federal court on Wednesday that he had spoken with Ventura on Tuesday and congratulated her after the birth.
This joyful development comes during a turbulent time for Ventura, who recently served as a key witness in the federal criminal trial of her ex-boyfriend, music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs. Earlier this month, Ventura gave nearly 20 hours of emotional and graphic testimony detailing years of alleged abuse during her relationship with Combs, which spanned from 2007 to 2018.
Ventura was identified as “Victim 1” in the federal indictment against Combs, who faces multiple charges, including racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution. He has pleaded not guilty and could face life in prison if convicted on the most serious counts.
In court, Ventura recounted episodes of violence, mental health struggles, and disturbing details of their past relationship. A civil lawsuit she filed against Combs in November 2023 was settled within a day for $20 million. During her testimony, Ventura said she hoped to inspire and empower other survivors of abuse.
Despite the weight of her involvement in the high-profile case, Ventura and Fine announced in February that they were expecting another child, a message that was warmly received by fans.
Representatives for Ventura and Fine have not yet issued an official statement regarding the birth.
