The Genius Media Nigeria reports that Ronald Fenty, father of global music superstar Rihanna, has passed away at the age of 70. According to sources close to the family, Fenty died in Los Angeles after battling an undisclosed illness.

On Wednesday, Rihanna’s younger brother, Rajad Fenty, was spotted arriving at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. Although Rihanna was present, she was not seen in photographs taken at the scene.

Ronald and Rihanna had a complex relationship over the years, marked by a lengthy estrangement before they eventually reconciled. In February 2023, Ronald publicly expressed his joy about Rihanna and her partner, A$AP Rocky, expecting another child, sharing his eagerness to be involved in the baby’s life.

Ronald Fenty had three children—Rihanna, Rajad, and Rorrey—with his ex-wife Monica Braithwaite. The couple separated in 2002, around the time Rihanna’s music career was beginning to take off.
