Sean Diddy Combs' children have shared an audio clip after he called them from prison on his 55th birthday.

Combs is currently incarcerated at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn while he awaits his trial.

Diddy was arrested at the Park Hyatt hotel in Manhattan in September and was charged with racketeering and sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion - allegations of which he has denied.

Just last month, it was revealed that over 100 people had come forward to accuse the rapper of sexual assault.

Announced on October 1 in Houston, the attorney for the new accusers, Tony Buzbee, shared that he is representing men and women who have accused Diddy of sexual abuse and exploitation, with some cases reportedly dating as far back as 1991.

"This is an important matter that we intend to aggressively pursue," Buzbee said at a news conference per The Los Angeles Times. "We will leave no stone unturned to find all potentially liable parties, to include any individual or entity who participated in or benefited from this egregious behavior."

In the wake of the allegations, Diddy issued a statement through his attorney Erica Wolff.

She told UNILAD: "As Mr. Combs’ legal team has emphasized, he cannot address every meritless allegation in what has become a reckless media circus.

"That said, Mr. Combs emphatically and categorically denies as false and defamatory any claim that he sexually abused anyone, including minors. He looks forward to proving his innocence and vindicating himself in court, where the truth will be established based on evidence, not speculation."

As Diddy marked his 55th birthday in prison this week, his son shared a clip of him talking on the phone.

In the video, Diddy's youngest daughter could be seen singing 'Happy Birthday daddy' while the family gathered around.

The clip was shared on Instagram with the caption: "Happy Birthday Pops! We love you."

“I love y’all so much. I can't wait to see y'all," Diddy tells Quincy, Justin, Christian, Chance, D'Lila, Jessie and Love. "I just want to say I’m proud of y’all, especially the girls. I mean all of y’all but just for being strong.

"Thank y’all for being strong and thank y’all for being by my side, supporting me. I love y’all. I got the best family in the world. My birthday. I’m happy. Thank y’all for giving me this call. I love y’all."

Diddy's kids have previously shared a statement, expressing their support for their dad.

Writing on social media, it read: “The past month has devastated our family. Many have judged both him and us based on accusations, conspiracy theories and false narratives that have spiraled into absurdity on social media.

"We stand united, supporting you every step of the way. We hold onto the truth, knowing it will prevail, and nothing will break the strength of our family. We miss you and love you Dad.”
