Rihanna & A$AP Rocky’s Kids Make Unexpected Courtroom Debut

Rihanna will always stay by A$AP Rocky’s side.

On February 13, as the trial of the “L$D” rapper neared its closing arguments, the founder of Fenty Beauty was present in the Los Angeles courtroom, accompanied by their sons, RZA Athleston (age 2) and Riot Rose (age 18 months).

In the courthouse, Rihanna, with her oldest child in tow, entered wearing a leather coat and tall white boots. Simultaneously, Riot was carried by another caregiver further ahead. As the closing statements were being made, the “Umbrella” artist could be heard quieting her sons while the prosecutors spoke, as reported by courtroom reporters.

Currently, A$AP (originally named Rakim Mayers) is facing trial due to charges filed against him for two counts of assault with a semi-automatic weapon in 2022, stemming from an alleged incident with his former friend Terell Ephron in 2021. He has denied these accusations and pleaded not guilty. Ephron, who was once part of the A$AP Collective music group and went by the stage name A$AP Relli, claimed that the rapper “Sundress” pointed a handgun at him in Los Angeles.

Rihanna didn’t attend the entire trial that started on January 24, but she did show up on certain days. For example, she appeared at the courthouse on January 29 to support her five-year boyfriend. She was seen wearing an all-black outfit during this visit.

In the midst of A$AP’s court proceedings, Rihanna enthusiastically carries on nurturing their partnership. Indeed, the quartet they’ve formed has instilled in her a fresh sense of meaning and drive.

In an interview with TopMob News last April, I shared that they infuse purpose into each facet of my existence. Everything I do needs to be deliberate and valuable, particularly if it detaches me from them.

She went on saying, “I cherish my roles as a mother and wife, leaning more towards the domestic side. I find joy in it, always aiming to add excitement and celebrate moments. I’m working on creating unique traditions for our growing family.

Previously, A$AP, aged 36, disclosed that it was Rihanna, who is likewise 36 years old, that constantly appeared in his dreams prior to their relationship.

In an interview with W Magazine in October, he mentioned that our shared history dating back to our youth made it apparent to us. I believe we both recognized this. As we grew older, it became fitting for us to reconnect again.

In 2012, Rihanna and A$AP Rocky showcased their hit “Cockiness” at the MTV Video Music Awards, and their performance was so exceptional it warranted an award. Subsequently, they didn’t stop there, as they embarked on a tour together in 2013.

2013 saw fans repeatedly playing the track “Fashion Killa,” following the release of its music video by Rihanna and A$AP Rocky, a move that left them captivated.

Over time, their friendship continued to thrive. In 2018, they graced the Louis Vuitton Menswear Spring/Summer 2019 fashion show during Paris Fashion Week, leaving quite an impression.

Additionally, they graced The Fashion Awards in 2019. Rihanna shone brilliantly in a mint gown from her Fenty line, while A$AP Rocky exuded elegance in a sleek black tuxedo.

At this year’s Met Gala, Rihanna and A$AP Rocky made their grand appearance as a stylish pair. The “Umbrella” crooner graced the event in a black Balenciaga dress, while A$AP Rocky, known for his track “A$AP Forever,” opted for a custom ERL quilt and tuxedo.

Following their baby announcement, Rihanna admitted that she found it challenging to conceal her pregnancy from her friends due to their close proximity and familiarity with her routines. As she explained to Justin Sylvester from TopMob, “My friends are always around me, they know my habits, so it was tough for me to keep it a secret.” They would question her about not wanting drinks or smoking, and notice changes in her eating habits, such as a sudden craving for sweets. However, eventually, she had no choice but to reveal the news, causing her friends, like the rest of the world, to be equally surprised.
