Love at first booty grab? That’s what has been revealed from the five-year relationship between Rihanna and A$AP Rocky. the renowned singer has two sons with him RZA and Riot. Rihanna and A$AP Rocky met at the MTV Video Music Awards for the first time, as told by the singer in a recent interview.
Though her team members thought that the incident could bring chaos as Rihanna is famous for not compromising with any cheeky behavior, the lack of response from Rihanna’s side has made things clear that she liked him. After their first meeting in 2012, they took time to fall in love, which slowly but surely happened in 2019.
How did Rihanna find out that A$AP Rocky is the one?
Rihanna thinks that A$AP Rocky is the love of her life and the best man she could find to be the father of her kids. In a recent interview with Interview Magazine, Rihanna gushed about her love for her man. She goes to a great length to describe how he outshines her in terms of dressing. Things people become after being in love!
Looking back on the 2012 VMA incident, Rihanna recalls how it was just a “manager to manager, client to client” situation between them. But at their duet performance during the live show, Rocky put his hand on Rihanna’s a*s which was severely unexpected. Rihanna mentioned in interviews that it was absolutely not a part of the rehearsal that they had done for the performance.

The founder of Fenty Beauty has confirmed that it is the road trip they took in the summer of 2020 that made their relationship stable.
He became my family in that time.
Around the same time, Rocky became a part of the Fenty Skin campaign. The spark between the two did not go unnoticed by the fans and the media. They also filmed a video for Vogue in 2020 which ignited the rumors of Rihanna and A$AP Rocky dating.
Right after their road trip, Rihanna took Rocky to her home in Barbados to introduce him to her family where he was graciously accepted. A few months later, she was expecting their first child. Rihanna said though she was not necessarily going for it, she was not certainly against the idea of having kids.
The singer has also revealed the secret to their relationship. She has mentioned that the key is to be transparent, sharing each other’s goals, and insecurities, as well as sharing feelings and fears- “The vulnerability to be able to say what you feel about each other.”
A$AP Rocky’s recent trial
In a highly publicized gun trial, ASAP Rocky has literally and legally dodged a bullet. On 18th February the LA court gave the verdict of not guilty. He was accused of shooting at his former friend twice with a semi-automatic firearm. But with no bullet wounds and a lack of surveillance footage, the case became quite a spectacle.
This case grabbed more attention because of the AI drama. The defense was accused of using AI-generated voice recording.
Rihanna’s presence in the courtroom was the ultimate showstopper
With her strong presence, Rihanna eventually stole the show. The famous singer and business mogul being present in the courtroom along with her two sons created a media frenzy that holds power. She sat through the five days of proceedings while her partner stood for trial. When A$AP Rocky was declared not guilty, Rihanna was shown to be celebrating with the rest of their legal team.
Despite the controversies and drama being unfolded, the two seem to be happy and in love. The recent case of Rocky has shown their support towards each other which is different than the other relationships the singer had in the past.
However, it is reported that the duo is waiting to release their albums and co-chair the 2025 Met Gala in May.
