US singer and rapper Sean John Combs aka P.Diddy has announced the change of his middle name.
The 51-year-old media mogul posted a picture of his driver’s licence on his Instagram page on Monday 4th May where he revealed that he has dropped “John” as his middle name.
He accompanied the post with another photo of himself writing “Love” inside a heart alongside different versions of his signature.
“Look what I just got in the mail today. it’s official!!! Welcome to the love era,” he wrote.

In November 2017, P.Diddy had in a statement announced that his middle name will be changed and would prefer to be called “Brother Love”.
A few days later, the rapper, however, retracted the statement, insisting that he was only joking.
“Due to the overwhelming response to the media out there, and just to not wanting there to be any confusion, I was only joking. I didn’t change my name. It was just part of one of my alter egos, and one of my alter egos is Love. he had written.
