Diddy trial live: Key witness in trial Cassie gave birth yesterday, friend tells court | Day 11 as it happened | Ents & Arts News

Away from the courtroom, we are getting reports from Sky’s US partner network NBC News that Cassie Ventura has given birth to her third child.

A source close to the matter confirmed the birth in a statement to NBC.

As we’ve been reporting, Cassie, a singer and model, is the key witness in the trial against her former partner.

Over four days in the first week of the hearing, she gave evidence alleging he had subjected her to years of physical, sexual and emotional abuse during their on-off relationship of 11 years.

When Cassie testified, she was eight months pregnant, and she was seen rubbing her belly in court.

Cassie announced her pregnancy on Instagram earlier this year. She already has two children with her husband, Alex Fine, who she married in 2019.
