"I’m so happy that I jumped for joy. I’m still so excited. Rihanna always said that she wanted children, she loves kids. She always takes care of her cousins’ kids…she’s going to be a good mom," Fenty said.
Fenty accepts Rocky
The celebrity father said he found Rocky to be a very cool guy after the two got a chance to meet when his daughter brought the rapper home in December 2020.
"I like him, he is a cool guy," he said.
Rihanna drops lawsuit against her father
In September 2020, Rihanna dropped the lawsuit she had brought against her dad, accusing him of misusing her name to benefit his own entertainment company, just weeks before they were meant to meet in court. It’s believed they settled the case.
According to Rihanna, her dad had been booking shows for her despite not being her agent, including an overseas tour without making prior confirmations with her.
Information from Rihanna's team intimated that the musician agreed to the settlement in a bid to avoid a public flared conflict.
"Although Mr Fenty is Rihanna's father, he does not have, and never has had, authority to act on Rihanna's behalf."
