Porter and Diddy were seen together just last month as their entire family came out to support the premiere of Quincy's film The Holiday Calendar.
Porter was an accomplished model and actress, appearing on the covers of Runway and Essence Magazine.
She also made appearances on shows including Law & Order, as well as the films The Brothers and Mama, I Want To Sing.
Diddy first met Porter when he was an A&R executive in the early 1990s. It was love at first sight - at least for the future hitmaker.
Porter had been at the studio with her ex-boyfriend AI B. Sure when Diddy first laid eyes on her.
Porter and Diddy (pictured together at the Academy Awards in 2005) first began dating in the early 1990s
Porter kicked Combs out of the house they shared and he went on to date Lopez (pictured together in 2000) for two years
'I wasn't trying to holler at her or anything, but I was admiring her - her lips, her eyes, her mouth, her shape, her energy,' Diddy told Essence in 2006.
All the rapper could think was 'I wish I had a girl like that'.
Porter and Diddy were on and off for more than a decade, their dramatic splits and reconciliations frequently making national headlines in the late 90s and early 2000s.
Porter would go on to work as a receptionist at Uptown Records. By 1994, she and Diddy were a couple - and they were inseparable.
'We went out together, we ate together, we played together,' Porter told Essence during the same interview.
'He would want me at the office. I would want him at my shoots. Our bond was so tight.'
Diddy, who hails from Harlem, was completely taken by how different Porter - a Columbus, Georgia native - seemed from the other girls he knew.
Porter and Diddy first broke up when she was pregnant with their son - the same time he began dating Jennifer Lopez behind her back
'She wasn't like a New York girl,' he said. 'She was Bohemian, mixed with Georgia-peach hospitality.'
'I got the idea she'd like doing stuff like walking barefoot in the grass. I didn't think I could get her to like me.'
'She was smooth, you know, like ice. She's cool and collected and thinks before she speaks. You meet a lot of young ladies, and they just don't do that. Kim was never pressed. She was always in control.'
But shortly after the birth of the couple's first son, news hit that Diddy was dating Jennifer Lopez. Suddenly Porter's name was all over the press.
'Everywhere I went, people were asking, "Are you okay?"', Porter recalled at the time.
'They were talking to me like I was really crushed. But I just had a baby. I couldn't be somewhere in a corner heartbroken. I have kids. I'm a grown woman.'
Porter kicked Combs out of the house they shared and he went on to date Lopez for two years.
Diddy is pictured with all five of his children. He shares twins Jesse James and D'Lila (pictured in black) and son Christian (in the jersey) with Porter. He also has son Justin Dior Combs and daughter Chance from other relationships
It wasn't until Combs faced the possibility of jail, after he was charged with bribery and weapons possession, that he won Porter back again.
'I think the threat of losing his freedom forced him to grow up and take responsibility for his actions,' she said.
The couple seemed stronger than ever after they got back together, with Diddy even declaring that Porter 'completes me' and that she was his 'muse'.
But just seven months after their loved-up interview was published, Porter and Diddy had broken up yet again.
And, much like the first time around, the betrayal happened when Porter was pregnant - this time with the rapper's twins.
Porter was informed by a friend that Diddy had another daughter on the way with another woman.
The baby - named Chance - was born five months before Porter's daughters. Her mother was Sarah Chapman, a woman in Atlanta who worked in fashion.
Porter planned her break-up from Diddy for weeks, waiting until he was out of town before packing up the house.
She took the cars, the nursery, the furniture - even the kitchen table.
'There was no other way,' Porter told Essence in 2007. 'You think he would have let me walk out the door?'
'I wanted him to know I wasn't breaking up with him for two weeks - or maybe leaving for two days. If I pack up everything - twins and all - it means I'm out!'
'Puffy's an action person, not a talk person. So I had to have an action. Telling him, "Babe, I'm leaving," was not gonna do it.'
But the couple remained friends through the years, something Porter predicted from the beginning.
'You know how when two people go their separate ways, most of the time there's animosity? It's not like that with us,' she said soon after their break-up.
'Sean and I have this bond, this friendship. I'm the person he can tell his inner most thoughts to and he's that person for me. He still calls me every day and we talk.'
The former couple continued to make appearances at red carpets and parties together and Porter made appearances on Diddy's show I Want to Work for Diddy, which aired from 2008 to 2010.
Diddy even gave Porter a shout out in one of his songs in 2010.
His lyrics - 'What if the twins ask me why I ain't marry their mom (why, damn!) / How do I respond? - raised eyebrows due to the song's title 'Coming Home'.
Diddy and Porter never rekindled their relationship, but he continued to shower her with love.
He took to Instagram to share a birthday tribute for Porter in 2015, writing: 'We thank God for you! Love and be clear! She's set 4 life! BE CLEAR! Thank you for my beautiful children!'
It wasn't until Combs faced the possibility of jail, after he was charged with bribery and weapons possession - that he won Porter back again. The couple are pictured here in 2004, shortly before their final break-up

According to a...
It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
