Beyoncé is ready to ditch husband Jay-Z over fears the music mogul’s friendship with accused sex fiend Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs will ruin her reputation.

Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs has pleaded not guilty but remains behind bars in Brooklyn after being denied bail while awaiting his May 2025 trial.

Now, sources said the sprawling investigation threatens to expose Diddy’s close associates, who may have been caught cavorting on camera.

“Hard Knock Life” rapper Jay-Z, who’s made a fortune with his Roc Nation entertainment empire, has frequently collaborated with Combs.

Death Row Records founder Marion “Suge” Knight – who’s serving 28 years in California for voluntary manslaughter – claimed Diddy played a role in the 1996 murder of rapper Tupac Shakur and suggested Jay-Z, whose real name is Shawn Carter, was aware of his buddy’s alleged crimes.

Said the insider: “Jay and Beyoncé have been able to keep their marriage together – despite his admitted infidelities and shady friendships.

“They’ve kept an uneasy peace for the sake of their three kids and their careers – but this is becoming a bridge too far!”
