Rocky, 35, squashed a fan’s romantic gesture toward the mother of his two children in the early morning hours on Sunday, May 12. As Rocky and Rihanna, 36, left the Color Factory in New York City, having spent the night there for their son RZA’s second birthday party, they paused to sign autographs for some of their die-hard fans.


In the footage captured by photographer Cesar Pena, Rihanna and Rocky were happy to accommodate requests for signatures. However, one such admirer went a little too far. An unnamed man offered a white rose for Rihanna. “Rih, Happy Mother’s Day, sweetheart,” he said.

Don’t be romantic to my girl like that!” responded Rocky, turning his attention to the gentleman. Rocky started to square up with the fan, who backed away slightly.

Thankfully, Rocky meant no harm. “I’m playing with you,” he quickly said before dapping up the rose-bearer. They parted ways on good terms. Rihanna didn’t seem fazed by this encounter at all.
