Sean “Diddy” Combs’ former head of security said he had witnessed the rapper being violent toward women “four or five times” — leaving him unsurprised by the shocking 2016 footage of him brutally beating then-girlfriend Cassie Ventura.

“It didn’t surprise me when I saw it because I’ve seen things to this nature before,” Roger Bonds told Piers Morgan in an interview late Monday.

“I’ve gotten in between things of this nature before — and this was back in 2012,” he said of the horrifying assault in which the mogul was seen shoving, kicking and dragging his then-girlfriend in a hotel hallway.

Asked how many times he’d seen Diddy become violent towards women, Bonds replied: “Around four or five times.”

“I’ve seen him [be violent] with Cassie and I’ve seen him with Kim Porter, his kid’s mother,” Bond said of the late model.

“I’ve seen him get physical. I’ve seen him get really physical, grab them up,” he alleged.

“I’ve seen him get into some wrestling and punching matches and sometimes I felt like, ‘What are you mad at? What are you upset about?’”

“Because it’s a deeper anger when you’re hitting and punching a woman in that type of manner,” Bond said.

“When you have a problem with every woman that you’re dealing with then I think that problem is inside of you,” he added.

Bonds believes Diddy’s apology for the 2016 incident was just what he thought other people wanted to hear.

“You can’t just say anything you want to say and think that people are going to accept it,” he said.

Bonds believes Diddy knew there were security cameras in the hotel and that he could buy the footage. He allegedly paid $50,000 for the footage at the time, according to Cassie’s lawsuit.

However, the rapper did not know that the hotel had also given Ventura a copy of the footage, Bonds suggested.

“When you go through life just paying your way out, I really feel like he wasn’t sorry about that — he might be sorry now that he got caught but if that was a one-time incident then I would say accept his apology, but I think in that apology he said what he thought people wanted to hear,” Bonds said.
