Thursday was the 22nd day of the Combs trial, and Jane took the stand. In the court, Jane claimed that in 2024, she had reached a breaking point in her relationship with Combs because of a fight.

Then, the two allegedly exchanged insults.

This fight between them was followed by another argument. Jane said that during one of their 'hotel-nights,' she had texted an entertainer she met in Vegas, and when Combs came to know about it, he got angry and shouted at her, as reported by CNN.
