Rihanna is currently suffering from the grief of losing her father.
The 37-year-old iconic singer, who is currently pregnant with her third child whom she shares with A$AP Rocky, is struggling to cope with the death of her dad, Ronald Fenty.
Even though the father-daughter duo had a rather rocky relationship, which featured moments of estrangement as well as reconciliation an source has now revealed to DailyMail that the demise of Ronald has taken a toll on the Work singer, born Robyn Rihanna Fenty.
“Robyn has had a very difficult relationship with her father over the years but his death has hit her like a ton of bricks. Being pregnant and dealing with ASAP’s legal woes have been an emotional roller coaster for her the last few months, and to add to it all, her dad was getting sick, and it started to become too much,” the source revealed.
They continued, “As much as you realize that something like this is occurring, it is still completely heartbreaking and that is where she is right now.”
Furthermore, the insider added that Rihanna “has forgiven her father and, in death, they got back to a loving father and daughter relationship,” adding, “But, she is in pain, especially being a mother herself and there being a chance that her kids would have lost their dad to jail a few months back, she feels how important family is. This is going to take a long time, and maybe even forever to get over. Sad time in her world right now.”
For the unversed, it was announced by a Barbadian media outlet that Rihanna’s father, Ronald Fenty had passed away at the age of 70 in Los Angeles.
As of yet, neither the Diamonds crooner has broken silence over the tragedy nor have the official cause and date of death been made public.
