Several high-profile inmates, including Sean “Diddy” Combs, Josh Duggar, Fetty Wap (real name Willie Maxwell II), and Jared Fogle, will be spending Thanksgiving behind bars this year. As they observe the holiday, details regarding their meals have emerged, providing a glimpse into how they will celebrate while incarcerated.
Diddy’s Thanksgiving Feast
Sean Combs, 56, will enjoy a Thanksgiving meal at FCI Fort Dix in New Jersey, where he is serving a 50-month sentence for transportation to engage in prostitution. His holiday menu includes a roast turkey with gravy, as well as an alternative of soy chicken and vegetables. The meal will be complemented by cornbread, baked sweet potatoes, and corn, with a dessert to conclude the feast. For dinner, Diddy will have a lighter option, either a peanut butter and jelly sandwich or a deli sandwich with potato chips and fruit.
While Diddy’s family remains hopeful for a pardon from former President Donald Trump, his scheduled release date is set for June 4, 2028. Diddy was arrested in September 2024 and convicted in July of this year, resulting in his current imprisonment.
Josh Duggar’s Holiday Menu
In Texas, Josh Duggar, 37, will also partake in a Thanksgiving meal at FCI Seagoville. His options include roast turkey with gravy or honey-glazed ham, with meatless alternatives such as vegetable lasagna or stuffed peppers available for those who prefer them. His meal will be served alongside cornbread, broccoli and cheese casserole, green bean casserole, candied sweet potatoes, and dinner rolls. For dessert, Duggar can choose a slice of pecan pie.
Duggar, serving a sentence of more than 12 years for receiving and possessing child pornography, will also have access to recreational activities over the Thanksgiving weekend. The prison’s recreation department is organizing games like ping-pong and checkers from November 29 to November 30, along with popcorn distribution.
Fetty Wap’s Traditional Thanksgiving
Meanwhile, Fetty Wap, 34, currently at FCI Sandstone in Minnesota, will celebrate with a traditional Thanksgiving meal featuring roast turkey and all the customary sides. These include mashed potatoes with gravy, sweet potatoes, stuffing, corn, salad, cranberry sauce, dinner rolls, and quinoa. He will conclude his meal with a slice of pumpkin pie.
Maxwell, who was sentenced to six years in prison for drug trafficking, has an adjusted release date of December 8, 2026, allowing him a chance to return home before Christmas next year.
Jared Fogle’s Meal Options
Lastly, Jared Fogle, 48, will be dining at FCI Englewood in Colorado, where he faces a lengthy sentence of over 15 years for child pornography charges. His Thanksgiving meal will consist of roast turkey or honey ham, accompanied by mashed potatoes with gravy, cornbread, green bean casserole, and a garden salad. Fogle will also have a choice of pumpkin or cherry pie for dessert.
Fogle’s prison will host various recreational activities throughout the holiday weekend, including indoor games and outdoor sports. He is scheduled for release on March 24, 2029.
As these celebrities navigate their Thanksgiving celebrations in prison, they join a larger community of inmates observing the holiday with meals that, albeit different from the usual festivities, still aim to provide a sense of dignity and respect during this time.
