Amid the legal battle, ASAP Rocky has had unwavering support from his loved ones. According to Rolling Stone ’s Nancy Dillon, Rihanna was seated in the courtroom’s front row alongside Rocky’s mother, Renee Black. Dillon also noted that Rihanna kept her head down and appeared emotional throughout the proceedings.

Rihanna appeared for the first time at the trial of her longtime partner A$AP Rocky, on the day of its most important testimony — the description by a former friend of the moment Rocky allegedly fired a gun at him.

Singer Rihanna, Rocky’s partner and the mother of their two children, attended court in Los Angeles. In a stretch of questioning crucial to the defence of ASAP Rocky, his lawyer challenged the account of his accuser, who said he suffered a hand injury when the hip-hop performer fired a gun at him in 2021.
