Rihanna’s dad was just as surprised as the rest of the world when the “Umbrella” singer revealed her baby bump during the 2023 Super Bowl halftime show last weekend.
Ronald Fenty, who flew from Barbados to attend the game in Glendale, Ariz., told TMZ that he had no idea his daughter was expecting her second child with A$AP Rocky.
âOh my God! My baby girl looks pregnant,â he recalled saying to this partner while in the stands at State Farm Stadium.
Ronald also noted that he hopes the Fenty Beauty mogul, 34, will welcome a baby girl this time around â after giving birth to a son last year.
Page Six has reached out to reps for Rihanna but did not immediately hear back.
As previously reported, the âDisturbiaâ singer, born Robyn Rihanna Fenty, has had a rocky relationship with her father through the years.
Ronald divorced Rihannaâs mom, Monica Braithwaite, amid alcohol and drug issues when the singer was just 14 years old.
Rihanna later accused her father of misusing her name to benefit his own entertainment company. However, she eventually dropped the lawsuit she brought against him in September 2021.
Ronald recently spoke to Page Six aboutbeing a grandfather to Rihannaâs first child, who was born in May 2022.
âSheâs loving it. Sheâs a very overprotective mother,” he said, noting the “Rude Boy” singer had visited her home country with the youngster twice so far.
âEverybody says [the baby] looks like me, but you know, babies change, faces change. He [resembles] a lot of Rihanna and Rocky together,” he went on.
Ronald, who joked that Rihanna would âhave [his] headâ if he divulged the bubâs name, also said that Rocky, 34, was âa cool guy.â
â[He’s] very respectable. Heâs taking to fatherhood very well,” Ronald said.
However, he “doesn’t know” whether the couple will ever tie the knot.
“I donât know about marriage, I really donât know.â
Rihanna and Rocky, who are the British Vogue March cover stars with their baby boy, started dating in late 2020, after being friends for years.
