Sean “Diddy” Combs will spend New Year’s 2026 in federal prison with a menu featuring high-protein meals. According to a Fort Dix prison spokesperson, lunch on New Year’s Eve will include hamburgers with lettuce, tomatoes, and onions—or a black bean burger for vegetarians—alongside fries or a baked potato. Dinner that evening consists of pasta with marinara sauce and meatballs, served with a garden salad and garlic bread.
New Year’s Day begins with baked fish, grilled beef, or tofu lo mein for lunch, accompanied by steamed broccoli, kidney beans, or a baked potato. For dessert, inmates can choose fruit or a holiday-themed treat. Dinner on January 1 offers sandwiches with deli meat and cheese or peanut butter and jelly, along with potato chips, whole wheat bread, and additional fruit, followed by another dessert option.
This marks Diddy’s second holiday season behind bars after his 2023 arrest in a sex trafficking investigation. In July, he was sentenced to four years in prison for two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution, though acquitted of sex trafficking and racketeering charges.
During Thanksgiving, the prison served him turkey roast, soy chicken, stuffing, sweet potatoes, and corn. Combs reportedly purchased commissary items to share with fellow inmates, stating it was about “making sure other people eat” and emphasizing unity during the holidays.
Recent allegations against Combs were explored in Netflix’s documentary Sean Combs: The Wreckoning, produced by 50 Cent, which delves into misconduct accusations and his career decline. Combs has denied all allegations.
