The 114-page lawsuit alleges that Combs and other defendants exploited English for sexual purposes and financial gain during "White Parties" at Combs' residences in the Hamptons, New York, and Miami, Florida, between 2004 and 2009.
Filed in the US District Court for the Southern District of New York, the complaint also claims that Combs coerced English into engaging in prostitution and sex work from 2006 to 2009, according to CNN reports.
This lawsuit is one of nine filed against Combs since last November.
Eight of these lawsuits allege sexual assault, and one accuses his son Christian Combs of sexual assault, with additional claims against Sean Combs for aiding and abetting.
One of the previous lawsuits, filed by his former girlfriend Cassie Ventura, has already been settled.
Jonathan Davis, an attorney for Combs, responded to English’s lawsuit by stating, "No matter how many lawsuits are filed it won’t change the fact that Mr. Combs has never sexually assaulted or sex trafficked anyone.
Mr. Combs is confident he will prevail against these and other baseless claims in court."
Adria English's lawsuit demands a jury trial and seeks punitive damages, though the specific amount is unspecified.
Sean "Diddy" Combs has denied the allegations in several of the civil lawsuits but has not addressed all the claims.
In December 2023, after four lawsuits had been filed, Combs denied the accusations on social media, calling them "sickening allegations" driven by financial motives.
He said, "I did not do any of the awful things being alleged."Sources previously told CNN that federal authorities were planning to present witnesses, including accusers of Sean "Diddy" Combs, to a grand jury, indicating a possible indictment from the US Justice Department.
