Diddy reportedly has tapped Bishop Jakes for his “soulmate” Kim Porter’s Homegoing celebration.
Jakes, who has a relationship with Diddy, will reportedly conduct the service of Porter in her hometown of Columbus, Georgia on Saturday.
After news broke that Jakes would conduct the service, the mega church Pastor shared words of comfort on Instagram for Diddy and his family.
“My family and I would like to offer our love and condolences to Diddy and his entire family, as they traverse the tragic loss of Ms. Kim Porter, Jakes shared on IG. The beauty of love is that it knows no limits; not even death can contain the love established during her life. I empathize with your feelings of sorrow, yet I hope for the memories made and laughs exchanged to be cherished most. And, during this time of great agony, may you all remain encouraged in God’s ability to restore strength and to mend broken hearts. Lastly, though you may grieve her absence, realize that many people never had such love in all of their lives. You are blessed to have someone to miss! May God’s grace guide you through this challenging time,” he concluded.
Kim, whose birthday would have been next month, will be buried at the Evergreen Memorial Gardens cemetery alongside her mom and grandmother. The procession will begin with an 11 a.m. funeral service at Cascade Hills Church, according to the NY Daily News.
Kim Porter was found dead in her home last Thursday, she was 47. She leaves behind four children, Quincy, Christian, and twins Jessie and D’Lila Combs.
Our prayers are with the Combs and Porter family during their time of bereavement.
