On Thursday, hip-hop fans across the globe were stunned by the news that model and actress Kim Porter had suddenly passed away. Porter was found unresponsive in her California home and pronounced dead at the scene. Kim was a proud mom of four — a son, Quincy Brown, 27, with R&B Singer Al B. Sure!, and her three children with Diddy, son Christian Casey Combs, 20, and twin daughters D’Lila Star and Jessie James, 11. As Porter’s friends and family began posting tributes and old photos of her online, one thing was abundantly clear: Kim Porter lived for her family, and spending time with her beautiful children made her the happiest. She was already their angel. The photos of Porter enjoying life with them truly say it all. Here are 15 of our favorites.
