Rihanna Is ‘Trying To Stay Calm’ for Her Family as ASAP Rocky Faces Possible 9-Year Prison Sentence

It’s a mother’s nightmare.

On November 20, Rihanna’s partner and the dad to her two young kids, A$AP Rocky, was ordered to stand trial in January.

The 35-year-old is accused of firing a gun at fellow rapper Terell Ephron in November 2021 and faces up to nine years in prison on felony counts of assault with a firearm.

The rapper (a.k.a. Rakim Mayers) has maintained his innocence. Now insiders exclusively tell Life & Style that the “Umbrella” singer, 35, is terrified her family will be torn apart.

“If the worst happens and they throw the book at him, she’ll be raising her two kids alone.”

For now, the nine-time Grammy winner is doing all she can to bolster his case. “She totally believes he’s innocent,” the insider tells Life & Style.

“She’ll stand by him 100 percent.”
