4:34 PM PT -- A spokesperson for Diddy tells us, "This lawsuit is a meritless shakedown to extort money from Mr Combs. Raven is not the niece of Kim Porter as she falsely alleges; nor is there any legal basis for this case to be filed under the anonymity as a ”Jane Doe”. Raven was a part time babysitter to the twins who Mr Combs kept on the job back in 2018 to provide continuity for the twins following the untimely death of their mother. Mr. Combs graciously permitted Raven to live in his home with her son and treated them like ‘family’."
They continue, "Her babysitting services were always intended to be temporary especially since the girls were getting older and spending most of the day at school. In fact, Raven’s transition out of her role was planned and agreed to by her long before she even mentioned that she was pregnant. Mr. Combs will take swift and immediate action to protect his family against these false claims.”
11:16 AM PT -- A source close to Diddy tells us the woman was not terminated because she was pregnant, and that she was terminated for cause. What's more, the source claims the woman is not related to Diddy or Kim.
Sean "Diddy" Combs is being sued by Kim Porter's niece ... who claims she was wrongfully terminated after she told him she got pregnant and needed to take maternity leave.
In legal docs, obtained by TMZ, a woman referred to as Jane Roe -- who identifies herself as Kim's niece -- is suing Diddy, Tri Star Sports, and others, claiming she became a full-time nanny to Diddy's twins after Kim passed away in November 2018. Jane says she was then fired 2 years later when she requested maternity leave.
She claims the day after Kim passed away, Diddy asked her to live at his estate and become a full-time nanny to his twins, Jessie James and D'Lila -- adding she "was responsible for the twins' 24/7 care."
Jane says she got pregnant in August 2020 and told Diddy she needed to take maternity leave ... but says Diddy was "infuriated" and terminated her employment around the time she was set to begin her time off.
Roe claims she was told through Diddy's reps she was canned because she was pregnant and unmarried -- which "purportedly set a bad example" for his daughters.
Diddy's Ex-Girlfriend, Mother of His Kids, Kim Porter Found Dead at Home at 47
She's seeking unspecified damages.
TMZ broke the story ... Kim was found dead at her Toluca Lake home in 2018, it was later revealed she died from a form of pneumonia.

Ted Cruz Says Chrissy Teigen's Lying ... Claims She Had Miscarriage, Not Abortion
Senator Ted Cruz claims to know what happened in Chrissy Teigen's body better than she does -- he's insisting she actually had a miscarriage, NOT an abortion as she recently stated.
Cruz made the controversial comments on his podcast "Verdict with Ted Cruz" ... in response to Chrissy saying she now realizes it was an abortion back in 2020 when her son, Jack, died after she suffered placental abruption at 20 weeks.
At the time, she'd said it was a miscarriage, but a year later she says she processed it differently ... especially because doctors were certain Jack wouldn't survive.
Chrissy Teigen and John Legend Lose Third Child
Ironically, the guy who got the label "Lyin Ted" is now calling Chrissy a liar -- on the podcast, he said, "If there’s a medical procedure in that context, it’s not an abortion ... nobody argues that when the woman’s life is in danger, that you can’t take extraordinary medical steps to preserve the mother’s life."
His take seems to be ... if the procedure is done to save the mother's life, then it's not an abortion -- even if doctors know the fetus will die.
Cruz thinks Chrissy's only calling it an abortion now to make a political point about the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade. He says, "She may want to characterize it as abortion in this political context, but she described it at the time as a miscarriage. And it certainly sounds like that was an accurate description."
Of course, he's gotten a ton of backlash for inserting himself in this manner ... however, Chrissy has yet to respond.

Utah Mom I'm 56 & Pregnant With My Son's Baby!!!
A family in Utah will certainly have a story to tell their newest member ... because a 56-year-old mom is carrying her son's baby.
You read that right, 56-year-old Nancy Hauck volunteered to carry her son Jeff and his wife Cambria's 5th child, a girl. Cambria is unable to carry a pregnancy after getting a life-saving hysterectomy.
Jeff and Cambria already have 2 sets of twins, but wanted more, and that's when grandma decided she'd work as the vessel to carry the new kiddo.
Nancy, however, did express concern about carrying a baby at her age, but after docs gave her the green light she acted fast before she began menopause. It's been 26 years since Nancy was last pregnant.
Speaking to SWNS, Jeff said, "I felt grateful to have such a selfless and loving mom that was willing to make that kind of sacrifice for my family ... having experienced over four years of infertility treatments, I knew how complicated the process can be and doubted that it was possible for her to carry a baby for us, but I was very moved that she would even offer."

Khloe Kardashian Baby Revealed Tristan Knew Before Surrogacy He Got Another Woman Pregnant
Khloe Kardashian has given everyone the first peek at her baby, but she dropped some info about Tristan Thompson and the child he had with another woman that is really messed up.
The cameras were rolling at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center July 28 when Khloe and Tristan were able to hold their newborn for the first time. TMZ broke the story that they had the baby boy via surrogate.
Now here's what's messed up. In Season 2 of "The Kardashians," which dropped on Hulu Thursday, Khloe says Tristan knew he was having a baby with another woman when he pressured Khloe to have another child with him.
She says Tristan found out Maralee Nichols was pregnant with his child in July 2021 and afterward put the heat on Khloe to have their second child. She says just before Thanksgiving, an embryo was implanted in the surrogate.
Tristan Thompson Paternity Test Proves He Fathered Baby Boy, Apologizes to Khloe
Then, in December, Khloe found out about Maralee's pregnancy.
Khloe made it clear on the show, she never would have gone down this path had she known about the other baby before committing to another child of their own ... "Why would I want to have a baby with someone who is having a baby with someone else? I'm not that much of a sociopath. I'm a lunatic, but not that f***ing deranged."
As you know, Tristan and Khloe are co-parenting 4-year-old True. His involvement going forward was not discussed on the show.

Khloe Kardashian Breaks Down in Tears Over Tristan's Affair As They Awaited Birth of Second baby

It's gotta be painful for sure, but it's also content for season 2 of their show, so clearly anything goes.
TMZ broke the story back in July ... Khloe and Tristan were expecting a boy via surrogate ... as stories surfaced Tristan just had a baby with personal trainer Maralee Nichols last December.
Khloe's baby was born last month. The custody arrangement is unclear between her and Tristan, but it's complicated, given that they are co-parenting their first child, 4-year-old True.

Adam Levine says the IG model who claims she was manipulated into having a year-long physical relationship with him is full of it ... though he admits he "crossed the line."
Adam tells TMZ, "I used poor judgment in speaking with anyone other than my wife in ANY kind of flirtatious manner. I did not have an affair, nevertheless, I crossed the line during a regrettable period of my life."
He goes on ... "In certain instances it became inappropriate. I have addressed that and taken proactive steps to remedy this with my family."
And he says ... "My wife and my family is all I care about in this world. To be this naive and stupid enough to risk the only thing that truly matters to me was the greatest mistake I could ever make. I will never make it again. I take full responsibility. We will get through it and we will get through it together."

Sumner Stroh laid it all out on TikTok Monday morning -- just a few days after Adam's wife, Victoria's Secret model Behati Prinsloo, announced their 3rd pregnancy.
Sumner claimed she was tricked into having an affair with the singer ... saying it happened at a point when she was young and naive -- adding she now feels exploited.
She even showed alleged screenshots where he messaged her after months of radio silence ... writing, "Ok serious question. I’m having another baby and if it’s [a] boy I really wanna name it Sumner. You ok with that? DEAD serious."
The Internet blew up over the claims ... with Adam trending on Twitter. Some were buying it, while others suspect Sumner of chasing clout.
Adam and Behati have been together since 2012 -- they did split briefly in May 2013, but announced their engagement a couple months later.
They tied the knot the following year ... they've gone on to have 2 kids together -- 5-year-old Dusty Rose and 4-year-old Gio Grace.

Chrissy Teigen I Actually Had An Abortion ... Not A Miscarriage 2 Years Ago
11:37 AM PT -- Chrissy Teigen responded to people who are reacting negatively to her announcement on social media.
I knew this would happen, and honestly I’ve already seen you do your worst so if this makes you feel better, great. It doesn’t make me feel worse though. pic.twitter.com/jCm8GH835V

Chrissy Teigen says she actually didn't have a miscarriage in 2020 like she said ... she now says she actually had an abortion, but didn't realize that's what she did until recently.
Chrissy spoke Thursday at a summit called "A day of Unreasonable Conversation" ... saying it wasn't until nearly a year later did she process the fact that she had an abortion.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
She said, "Two years ago, when I was pregnant with Jack, John and my third child, I had to make a lot of difficult and heartbreaking decisions. It became very clear around halfway through that he would not survive, and that I wouldn’t either without any medical intervention."
Chrissy and husband John Legend announced they lost their son Jack at 20 weeks due to pregnancy complications ... calling it a miscarriage.
But, now she's backtracking all that ... "let's just call it what it was: It was an abortion. An abortion to save my life for a baby that had absolutely no chance."
Although she wasn't specific, it seems what she's saying is that doctors advised her at around 20 weeks the baby would not survive and she would probably die as well if she carried the baby to term. So, it sounds like doctors may have induced birth, knowing the baby would not survive, which she characterized as a miscarriage.
Chrissy went on to say the decision by the Supreme Court to overturn Roe v. Wade triggered the realization.
"I fell silent, feeling weird that I hadn't made sense of it that way," Teigen shared. "I told the world we had a miscarriage, the world agreed we had a miscarriage ... and I became really frustrated that I didn't, in the first place, say what it was, and I felt silly that it had taken me over a year to actually understand that we had had an abortion."
Chrissy and JL have 2 kids together -- Luna and Miles. The couple announced they are expecting another baby saying ... "joy has filled our home and hearts again."

Nick Cannon Most Complicated Family Tree Ever!!!
Nick Cannon has welcomed baby #9 into the world … and a few more kids are on the way. So we spent some time creating a family tree, so brace yourself!
Nick's first round of kids came courtesy of now-ex-wife Mariah Carey … twins Moroccan Scott and Monroe said hello to the world back in 2011. He and Mariah separated in 2014 after 6 years of marriage.
In 2017, Nick had his 3rd child, Golden Sagon ... this time around with former Miss USA Brittany Bell. Their encore was Powerful Queen, who was born in December of 2020.
Nick's procreation was about to shift into high gear with another set of twins, courtesy of Abby De La Rosa. Zion Mixolydian and Zillion Heir were born in June 2021, adding to his growing brood.
Abby discussed her open relationship with Nick on the "Lovers and Friends" podcast ... saying their polyamorous relationship doesn’t mean her standards are low or her parenting skills come up short.
Just 9 days after Zion and Zillion were born, Nick had his 7th kid -- Zen -- with model Alyssa Scott. Zen tragically passed away at 5 months from a brain tumor.
In June, Nick had baby #8 – Legendary Love -- with model Bre Tiesi, who documented the home birth in a YouTube vlog.
But wait, there's more! Onyx Ice Cole was born Wednesday. It was a surprise to just about everyone BUT Nick, who announced the birth on social media. This time around with new mom and former "The Price Is Right" model, LaNisha Cole.
Nick's still going full bore ... he and Brittany Bell are expecting a 3rd kid together in August ... and Abby De La Rosa announced she's pregnant again with Nick, and she's intimating that she might be carrying another set of twins.
So it's possible in a few months he may have spawned a dozen children, and remember, Nick's only 41, so that tree could branch out even further!

Trisha Paytas Baby Malibu Barbie Is Born ... No Royal Ties Over Here!!!
YouTube star Trisha Paytas has given birth to her 1st child ... and while she isn't a reincarnation of the late Queen Elizabeth -- despite popular belief -- she IS named after an ultra-popular children's doll.
Trisha finally gave birth to her and husband Moses Hacmon's baby girl Wednesday ... about a week after a wild trend took off -- one where Twitter users thought her kid would be QE2.0.

Nick Cannon Surprise, Baby #9 Arrives!!! #10 and #11 On Deck
Nick Cannon is gonna have a "Game of Thrones" situation in about 50 years -- he's just welcomed a surprise (to the world, anyway) birth of a daughter, his 9th child, with model LaNisha Cole.
It feels like it was just yesterday -- it was actually a couple months ago -- we were congratulating Nick on baby #8, but he proudly announced Wednesday night he and LaNisha welcomed Onyx Ice Cole Cannon's arrival ... and the little girl's really got daddy thinking.
Nick's clearly getting fed up with jokes about his rapidly-growing brood because he said, "As we all know I am not easily triggered and have quite tough skin and have always been an open book but not everyone in my family has that same level of strength. So I pray and ask others to please project all criticism and cynicism towards ME and not the loving and precious Mothers of my children."
Nick and LaNisha were, at least publicly, linked in early 2017, but broke up shortly after that. While the model -- who'd been on "The Price Is Right" for 8 seasons -- hasn't been hiding her pregnancy, she didn't reveal Nick was the father.
Anyway, Papa C is overjoyed, and says "I vow to protect, provide, guide and love this child to the best of my abilities."
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
Ok, grab your scorecards: We're already expecting 2 more announcements from Nick before we hit 2023! We know Brittany Bell -- with whom he already has 2 kids -- is expecting their third, because she and Nick did a pregnancy photo shoot together last month.
Also, Abby De La Rosa, is due next month and that will also be her third child with Nick.
As a quick refresher ... Nick and Bre Tiesi had their first in July.
The bottom line is double-digit fatherhood by Christmastime. To borrow a phrase ... Santa Claus ain't got nothing on Nick!!!

Jason Oppenheim Not All Belly Kisses Are For Babies ... ALL Over GF in Mykonos!!!
At first glance, Jason Oppenheim's vacay pics with his model girlfriend make ya think there's "Selling Sunset" baby news coming, but upon closer inspection ... they're just hot and horny!!!
Jason and Marie-Lou Nurk are yachting around Mykonos with fellow 'Sunset' star, and Jason's ex-GF, Mary Fitzgerald and her husband, Romain -- and, for some reason, Jason decided to plant some kisses right on MLN's belly.
But, we're sure the universal sign for "we got one in the oven" is misplaced here, because other shots show Marie-Lou vaping ... and also, Jason later got a massive handful of her ass. Not exactly giving maternal instincts or parent-to-be vibes!
What it is giving is ... we're super into each other. Remember, the couple just made their public debut about a month ago in Hollywood at a Netflix event.
Word is Marie-Lou will appear in the next season of 'Sunset' ... which can't be the least bit awkward, considering JO now has 2 exes -- Mary and Chrishell Stause -- working in his real estate office.
That office holiday party's gonna be 🔥!!!

Rapper Swae Lee has a 1-year-old child, TMZ has learned ... and he's filed in L.A. court to establish joint custody.
According to legal docs, obtained by TMZ, Swae had a daughter back in 2020 with Brazilian model Aline Martins. He filed in July and will ask for 50/50 custody of 1-year-old Angel.
Aline discussed it all in an interview with Jornal Extra last year, telling the outlet, “I would like him to give love and be a present father, but I won't be humiliating myself either. I think my daughter doesn't deserve that."
It's unclear what the conflict is ... but we're told Swae's motivation for going to court is that he wants a real relationship with his daughter, and that includes sleeping at his home and spending significant time with her. He also wants a holiday schedule. Our Swae sources say the reason for filing court docs is to set the ground rules before any problem arises.
We're told Swae has been paying Aline money for the kid, but she had claimed last year that she had accumulated $15k in debt from expenses, prenatal care, and rent.

Swae's lawyer, Samantha Spector, tells TMZ, "Swae takes his role as a father very seriously. He's absolutely committed to sharing parenting responsibilities to give his daughter a healthy and loving upbringing."

Kylie Jenner Kris Pulled Stormi Out of My Vagina!!!
Kylie Jenner says her mom, Kris Jenner, was VERY hands-on during her first birth.
The beauty mogul dished the birth deets to James Corden on 'The Late Late Show' this week, talking about what Kris is like in the delivery room ... a place she has been many times over the years, for both her own children and her grandkids.
When it came to Stormi ... Kylie says Kris was playing doctor, reaching up into her birth canal and yanking the kid out. Apparently, she did this on her own ... with pros standing by.
Kris clarified that she wasn't going in barehand or anything ... sounds like she was gloved and scrubbed, so it was kosher and clean. Still, though -- it's not a walk in the park, and it seems Kris tackled it with gusto. The second time around, she was on camera duty.
Speaking of kids, Kylie says she and Travis Scott have yet to settle on a permanent name for their son -- who was named Wolf, and still is legally ... but, apparently, the parents changed their mind and opted to name him something else -- which she didn't reveal.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
Based on how Kylie describes the process, it appears mom and dad still aren't settled on what to call the boy -- but she says they'll land on something eventually and tell the world.
