P. Diddy a proud father

P. Diddy is a “proud” father after his 17-year-old son signed to UCLA on a full football scholarship.

The rapper was thrilled when Justin Combs his son with high school sweetheart Misa Hylton-Brim was asked to join the prestigious university’s sports team and revealed it is “everything a father could want for his son”.

“This is one of the proudest moments of my life,” he said. “This is everything a father could want for his son, for him to excel at what he loves to do.”

Justin revealed he can’t wait to attend the school from next April.

“It was love at first sight. I’m committed to UCLA I was silently committed to UCLA for awhile, but now was the time,” he said.

P. Diddy caused controversy last year when he bought Justin a $300,000 Maybach car after he achieved good grades at school.

“Justin has turned himself around with his grades so I wanted to treat him. It’s a collector’s car so maybe he will use it for special occasions like on a first date, but like all my kids, he prefers the simpler things than the expensive things. Simple tastes,” he said.
