Sean "Diddy" Combs attended a private viewing of his late girlfriend, Kim Porter, in Columbus, Georgia, prior to her funeral ceremony on Saturday and paid loving tributes to her life.

Following Porter's death, which was caused by a bout of pneumonia that she was already suffering from, Diddy has been reportedly devasted. The 49-year-old rap mogul was dressed in a fur-trimmed coat over a suit, as he went to the private viewing. 

The rapper is set to attend the funeral ceremony, but prior to that at the private ceremony, he paid tribute to his former lover with whom he shares three children -- 11-year-old twin girls Jessie James and D'Lila, and a son Christian, 20.
