In a proud father moment, Sean “Diddy” Combs is expressing his support and elation as his oldest daughter Chance announces her plans to pursue acting. In an Instagram post, the renowned producer and music executive is seen in a lone picture extending a pink gardenia to Chance who turns 17 in late July.
“Words can’t describe how proud I am to watch you go after and accomplish your goals!,” he wrote in the caption . Closing it out with “GO CHANCE GO! I love you so much! @myfancychance.”
A Flower in Bloom
Chance was recently featured in the summer 23 issue of V Magazine where she talks about her acting dreams and what the craft has taught her so far. She started taking theatre and improv classes at age 5.
In her interview, she shared that growing up the child of a highly influential music heavyweight, inspired her and her siblings to be ambitious and fearlessly go after their dreams.
“Growing up, we’ve always been around different artists and in the studio with our dad,” Chance told V Magazine. “Even though we don’t want to pursue music right now, just seeing his work ethic and persistence has definitely been a big contributor to the drive we have to pursue our dreams.”
Other Famous Children
Diddy has other famous children including King Combs who was once accused of being a nepo-baby. The 25-year-old rapper shared that he was unbothered by the criticism of favoritism. While speaking with a TMZ reporter, he said, “Heavy is the head that wears the crown. So [I] have a big legacy I have to live up to.”
And when asked if he had benefited from his father’s influence in anyway, he said, “I feel like I’m blessed. You know we’re going to take the legacy far, further and further. Bad Boy for life.”
Black women like Tracee Ellis Ross, Rashida Jones and Zoë Kravitz are some other successful actresses whose parents were famous before they started their careers.
