Sean 'Diddy' Combs attorneys have approached the Trump administration seeking a presidential pardon.

The disgraced music mogul's lawyer Nicole Westmoreland told CNN on Tuesday that discussions were underway about a potential pardon.

'It's my understanding that we've reached out and had conversations in reference to a pardon,' she said.

Westmoreland added Diddy 'is a very hopeful person and I believe that he remains hopeful' that Trump will grant the pardon.

It comes just days after Trump insisted 'nobody's asked' about the pardon, even as rumors swirled that he was 'seriously considering' it.
