Rihanna will always stay by A$AP Rocky’s side. As the case against the “L$D” rapper began its closing remarks on February 13, the Fenty Beauty founder was in the Los Angeles courtroom with their sons RZA Athelston, 2, and Riot Rose, 18 months. Rihanna, holding their eldest son, was seen walking into the courthouse donning a leather coat and long white boots. Meanwhile, Riot was up ahead in the arms of another loved one.
During closing statements, the “Umbrella” singer was heard shushing their sons as the prosecutors made their remarks, according to reporters in the courtroom. A$AP, whose real name is Rakim Mayers, is currently standing trial after being charged with two felony counts of assault with a semiautomatic firearm in 2022 over a 2021 alleged altercation with former friend Terell Ephron. He denied the allegations and pleaded not guilty.
Ephron, a former member of A$AP’s music group A$AP Collective and known under the moniker A$AP Relli, accused the “Sundress” rapper of firing a handgun at him in L.A. This significant event highlights the tension surrounding the case and the strong support Rihanna continues to show for A$AP Rocky.
