In a moving caption, Diddy expressed, “Happy Father’s Day to all the real G’s holding it down! To all the fathers that are not with their children, to the fathers that are in jail, to the fathers that lost their children, to the fathers that are trying to do their best but are not perfect… I pray for you all! I hope we can all learn to love each other, protect each other, and respect each other. I’m so grateful for the beautiful children that God has blessed me with. I’m not perfect, but I try my best to be the best father that I can be. I love you all! ❤️👨👧👦👨👦👩👦👩👧👦👶🏽👶👱♂️💖.”
