Rihanna has always been a headline magnet, but her 2023 Super Bowl Halftime Show performance has given fans even more to talk about. The Barbadian superstar not only electrified the audience with her dynamic performance but also subtly revealed her second pregnancy, sending the internet into a frenzy. Among the many reactions was that of her father, Ronald Fenty, who was both surprised and delighted by the news. However, his excitement comes with a specific hope – that his next grandchild will be a granddaughter.
Ronald Fenty’s Granddaughter Wish
Ronald Fenty, the father of the internationally acclaimed singer, shared his thoughts about discovering Rihanna’s pregnancy during her Super Bowl performance. As fans and viewers spotted the baby bump, Ronald too realized he was going to be a grandfather again. Reflecting on the moment, he described it as a whirlwind of emotions, particularly since he found out alongside millions of others.
Speaking to TMZ, Ronald expressed his wish for Rihanna to have a daughter this time. He noted that while he was thrilled when his daughter and her partner, A$AP Rocky, welcomed their first child – a baby boy – last year, he had harbored hopes for a granddaughter. Ronald, already a grandparent to four grandsons, seems eager to add a little girl to the family.
“I was overjoyed to see her baby bump. I exclaimed to my partner, ‘Oh my god! My baby girl looks pregnant!’,” Ronald shared with the outlet, adding that the prospect of having a granddaughter fills him with anticipation and excitement.
A Complicated Father-Daughter Relationship
Despite the current joy, the relationship between Rihanna and her father has not always been smooth sailing. In 2019, Rihanna filed a lawsuit against Ronald, accusing him of exploiting the Fenty brand name to start his own business, Fenty Entertainment. According to court documents, Ronald had launched the talent development company in 2017, leveraging the Fenty name – which Rihanna had already trademarked and used for her various successful ventures, including her renowned Fenty Beauty line.
Rihanna claimed that her father’s actions were unauthorized and that he was profiting from the brand she had built. The lawsuit highlighted the complexities and tensions within their relationship. However, the case was eventually dropped, and Ronald later stated that they had managed to mend their relationship post-incident.
Looking Ahead
As the world awaits the arrival of Rihanna and A$AP Rocky’s second child, Ronald Fenty’s wish for a granddaughter adds another layer of anticipation. The public continues to be fascinated not just by Rihanna’s professional accomplishments but also by the personal stories that shape her life. Despite past conflicts, the shared joy of expecting a new family member seems to be a moment of unity for the Fenty family.
In the spotlight yet again, Rihanna remains a figure of immense interest, balancing her high-profile career with the private joys and challenges of family life. Whether the next addition to her family is a boy or a girl, one thing is certain: the world will be watching, and the Fenty family will continue to capture the public’s imagination.
