Diddy continues to feel the consequences after images emerged of the rapper assaulting his ex-girlfriend, Cassiein 2016.

Eyewear retailer America’s Best Contacts & Eyeglasses has stopped selling frames from Diddy’s Sean John range, it has been reported. TMZ.

We weekly has contacted America’s Best for confirmation.

According to TMZ, stores were ordered last week to remove Sean John products from their shelves and replace them with other stock at a similar price. The company began removing Sean John glasses from its online store last month, the outlet reported.

Diddy faced public criticism after CNN earlier this month published security camera footage of the rapper attacking Cassie in a hotel hallway. Diddy apologized for his actions in a video shared via Instagram on May 19.

“It’s hard to think about the darkest times in your life, sometimes you gotta do that,” Diddy said in the video. “I was lost. I mean, I’ve hit rock bottom, but I’m not making excuses. My behavior in that video is inexcusable. I take full responsibility for my actions in that video. I’m disgusted by it.”

The rapper continued, “I started seeking professional help. I’m going to therapy, going to rehab. Had to ask God for his mercy and grace. I’m so sorry, but I want to be a better man every day. I don’t ask for forgiveness. I am really sorry.”

Diddy captioned his post: “I’m really sorry.”

Cassie’s legal team released a statement to We weekly condemning the video for being “more about himself than the many people he has hurt.”

“When Cassie and several other women came forward, he denied everything and suggested his victims were looking for a payday,” Meredith Vuurtog, said a partner at Wigdor LLP. “That he only had to ‘apologize’ when his repeated denials were proven to be false shows his pathetic desperation, and no one will be swayed by his disingenuous words.”

Since the footage became public, Diddy’s music has reportedly been removed by Peloton and model Crystal McKinney filed a lawsuit against the rapper, accusing him of sexually assaulting her in 2003.
