While 50 Cent once made headlines for popular music like his songs “Candy Shop” and “In da Club,” everyone is talking about one of the rapper’s past relationships after the disturbing house raids and allegations against P. Diddy. According to Us Weekly, Daphne Joy was named in Rodney Lil Rod Jones’s lawsuit against P. Diddy that said the rapper was allegedly involved in sex trafficking several people, including Joy. At the time of this writing, there is no further information about the lawsuit, but Joy said it was false.
Considering that Daphne Joy and 50 Cent are in the news so often, people are curious about the status of their relationship. In this article, we’ll take a look at everything we know about Daphne Joy and 50 Cent’s relationship before and after she was named in this upsetting lawsuit against P. Diddy.
What Was Daphne Joy And 50 Cent’s Relationship Like Before The P. Diddy Lawsuit?
Daphne Joy and 50 Cent dated from 2011 to 2012, according to Distractify, and became parents to Sire Jackson. While it might seem like things were serious between them because they had a child together within a short time, they didn’t stay together long at all. The stars have never spoken fondly of their time together, and 50 Cent has insulted Joy publicly many times.
There have been many disturbing stories about the former couple’s time together. In 2013, 50 Cent was charged with vandalism and domestic violence against Daphne Joy. According to The Guardian, he faced a fine of $46,000 going to jail for five years. Joy was reportedly in her bedroom and hoped that the rapper wouldn’t find her. After he ruined her apartment, he reportedly broke the door and kicked her.

While 50 Cent said that the charges were inaccurate, it was definitely upsetting to read about what allegedly happened between him and Joy, especially since their child was there, too.
