Another associate of Combs told Mr Lownie that in 2004, the rapper and Ms Ferguson began a “secret friends with benefits” relationship that continued for several years.
The book says that in 2006, the rapper launched his own perfume called Unforgivable, which he claimed was inspired by Ms Ferguson and how she liked a man to smell.
A source told Mr Lownie that the pair would meet in luxury hotels in Europe and Africa, including a seven-star hotel that cost more than £50,000 per night. Combs’s personal fortune has been estimated at $1bn (£733m).
A source close to Ms Ferguson said: “This is absolute fabricated nonsense, blatantly untrue and yet another false allegation from him.”
