Rihanna appeared in court for the first time yesterday to stand by her partner and the father of her children, A$AP Rocky. A$AP Rocky is on trial for allegedly shooting a former friend in 2021. Rocky has been standing trial on two felony charges that he fired a handgun at a former friend, who is known by the name A$AP Relli and was born Terell Ephron. If convicted, Rocky could get up to 24 years in prison. Opening statements began Friday in the three-week-long trial, and the rapper's accuser Terell Ephron, formerly known as A$AP Relli, began detailing the incident to the courtroom Tuesday.
