She explained that her father was very ill at the time and collapsed at one point. He was quickly rushed to a hospital in Brooklyn; however, the conditions in the hospital were terrible. Diddy came to Dia's rescue and made a call through to the hospital to have her father moved to the best facility.

During the call, the businessman explained that Dia's father is his Godfather, and instructed that he should get a private room, with fantastic treatment.

Dia further explained that she never told Diddy of her father being in the hospital and that he must have found out from someone else. Who? She has no idea to date.

She stressed on the importance of professional relationships in forming strong bonds between people. Dia believes that work should be much more than one's work relationship. It should rather be an "ally-ship," where colleagues have each other's back for many years, as it is so much more than what humans should do daily, but a kind of advocacy that lasts forever.
