Rihanna Brings Kids to Closing Arguments at A$AP Rocky’s Trial

On Thursday, Rihanna braved the rain to support A$AP Rocky at his assault trial.

Rihanna was spotted with their two sons RZA, 2, and Riot, 1, as they made their way to the courthouse with multiple umbrellas shielding them from the rain.

Once they were inside the courtroom, Rihanna kept the boys engaged and quiet with a "The Little Mermaid" book as the proceedings were happening.

It looks like RiRi heard only some of closing arguments in the case, in which Rocky pleaded not guilty to two felonies charged related to an incident in which he allegedly pulled a gun and fired toward former childhood friend Terell Ephron aka A$AP Relli. If convicted, he faces up to 24 years behind bars.

During a break, Rihanna was seen leaving the courthouse with her boys as the cameras followed her every move.

Rihanna would later return to the courtroom without the boys.

Earlier this week, A$AP told the judge that he was waiving his right to testify.

When a judge asked him if he knew what was at stake if he opted not to take the stand, the rapper said, “I do, in fact.”

The judge emphasized, “It's totally your decision to either get on the stand or waive your right to testify and not testify.”

A$AP Rocky was never legally required to take the stand, but the potential for a damaging cross-examination may have proven too risky for the defense!
