Opening up about the downfall of his marriage with Lopez, which stretched from 1997 to 1998, Noa said, “Part of that divorce was Diddy's fault.”
“When Sony came and paid her the millions she got, there was Puffy [Combs], who was going to be one of the producers of several tracks on the first album ‘On The 6,'” the Eye See Me actor stated in Spanish. “That’s where the deception, the lies, the separation started.”
According to him, he was in Los Angeles for his restaurant's opening, while Lopez was working on the album in Miami and New York.
