Chavis and P. Diddy were romantically linked in September 2021 after photos and videos of them kissing on a yacht in Italy surfaced online. While speaking on the WGCI Morning Show the same month, Joie's ex, Bow Wow, expressed his disapproval of the pair's relationship, saying:
Diddy and I had a conversation over the phone for over an hour. He said his peace and I said mine. I also talked with Joie privately about the issue. So, we are just going to leave it at that for now.
In 2022, Chavis denied ever dating Diddy via her Instagram stories in a screenshot obtained by The Shade Room.
Combs and I have always been good friends. We had travelled to Italy for an unreleased project. Although we shared an unexpected kiss, things never went beyond that.
During an April 2023 appearance of The Baller Alert Show, Bow Wow accused Diddy of breaking bro code when he hooked up with his baby mama, stating:
As men, we know certain things are off limits. Wives and baby mamas are things we steer clear of.
