Sean 'Diddy' Combs is set to leave federal prison earlier than anticipated. Records from the Federal Bureau of Prisons now indicate a projected release date of April 25, 2028. This adjustment shaves approximately six weeks off his previously scheduled release of June 4, 2028.

The reduction in sentence is attributed to the 56-year-old music mogul's active participation in the Residential Drug Abuse Program (RDAP) at FCI Fort Dix in New Jersey, where he is serving his 50-month sentence. Combs enrolled in the program in November 2025. A representative for Combs stated that he has been “fully engaged” in the RDAP, focusing on rehabilitation and personal development.

Combs was sentenced on October 3, 2025, to four years and two months (50 months) in federal prison after being convicted on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution. This isn't the first modification to his release timeline; his date was previously extended from May 8, 2028, to June 4, 2028, in November 2025, following alleged prison rule violations, which his representatives denied. Meanwhile, Combs' legal team filed an appeal in December 2025, seeking either a reversal of his conviction or a reduction of his sentence, with prosecutors opposing the appeal in February 2026. Oral arguments are scheduled for April 2026.
