Sean “Diddy” Combs is no longer scheduled to leave prison on May 8, 2028.
Instead, the federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) has pushed his release date back one month to June 4, 2028, according to the BOP website.
On Oct. 27, we reported the website had been updated to include the mogul’s May 2028 release. The site now lists a later date, although no reason has been given.

The delay follows viral news reports saying the embattled music mogul has allegedly violated multiple rules inside the low-security Federal Correctional Institution at Fort Dix in New Jersey.
On Nov. 7, sources told TMZ Combs was caught drinking homemade alcohol.
The alcohol was said to be made of Fanta soda, sugar and apples, which inmates give two weeks to ferment before drinking.
Similar concoctions are often referred to as “toilet wine,” “prison hooch,” or “pruno.”
The prison told TMZ it had “no information about the incident.”
Meanwhile, a rep for the superstar denied the report.
“Mr. Combs is in his first week at FCI Fort Dix and is focused on adjusting, working on himself, and doing better each day. As with any high-profile individual in a new environment, there will be many rumors and exaggerated stories throughout his time there—most of them untrue,” Combs family spokesperson Juda Engelmayer said in a statement to the media.
“We ask that people give him the benefit of the doubt, the privacy to focus on his personal growth with grace and purpose,” Engelmayer added.
Prison officials reportedly considered moving Combs to a different unit, but decided to let him stay where he is currently housed.
Combs, 56, was transferred to FCI Fort Dix on Oct. 30, from Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center where he was jailed since his arrest in September 2024.
Another report surfaced this week saying the mogul had allegedly broken additional rules.
On Nov. 10, CBS News reported he had allegedly ignored phone call rules by engaging in an unauthorized three-way call on Nov. 3.
BOP rules restrict inmates to single-party phone calls with approved contacts only.
CBS said it viewed prison documents and learned the alleged conversation was with a woman and Combs asked her to put a digital guy on the line so they could discuss “the blogs.” The call was also said to include a mention of bringing “200 singles” in cash to the prison, which would violate another rule.
The BOP prohibits visitors from bringing paper money and only coins are allowed for vending machines. Inmate spending accounts can be replenished electronically.
Urban Hollywood 411 contacted the BOP office of public affairs for more information, but received an auto-generated response saying the office was closed because of the government shutdown.
The “Last Night” rapper and producer was convicted on July 2 under the Mann Act for transporting people across state lines for the purpose of prostitution. Jurors found him not guilty of more serious racketeering and sex trafficking charges.
The mogul is serving a 50-month sentence, after he was sentenced on Oct. 3.
The judge in the case said Combs would be credited with time served for the 13 months he spent in jail awaiting his trial and sentencing.
