LOS ANGELES, Oct 10: Justin Bieber has reportedly confided in friends about his "nightmare" experiences with Sean "Diddy" Combs, following the music mogul's recent legal troubles. Diddy was arrested on September 16, facing charges of sex trafficking, racketeering, and engaging in prostitution. He remains in federal custody at Brooklyn's Metropolitan Detention Center after being denied bail twice.

Although Justin has not publicly addressed Diddy, a source revealed to In Touch Weekly that he is struggling with their complicated friendship amid the allegations against Diddy. The insider stated, "The last thing Justin wants to do is relive or even discuss his complicated friendship with Diddy." Still, he is reportedly sharing his feelings with close friends about the impact it has had on him.

Justin, who started his career as a teenager under Diddy's mentorship, collaborated with him on the song "Moments" from Diddy's fifth studio album, The Love Album: Off the Grid. Resurfaced videos of their past interactions have caused concern among fans, particularly a 2009 vlog where Diddy promised an exciting 48 hours with the then 15-year-old Justin.

Throughout his career, Justin has been open about his struggles with mental health and addiction, as seen in his 2020 documentary Justin Bieber: Next Chapter. In a tearful interview, he reflected on his challenges in the music industry, emphasizing his desire to protect young artists like Billie Eilish.

The source noted that Justin encourages young stars to reach out to him for support, as he relies on therapy and his faith to cope with his past. While he is focused on his family, including his wife Hailey and their newborn son Jack Blue, Justin remains open to sharing his experiences if it can help others.
