Rihanna, ASAP Rocky, And Children Attend Her Father's Funeral In Barbados
Rihanna and A$AP Rocky gathered their children to visit Barbados for her father's funeral. Ronald Fenty was laid to rest on Tuesday (July 8) at Garfield Sobers Gymnasium, according to WIC News.
The outlet reported Ronald Fenty died at the end of May at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles after suffering from a combination of acute respiratory failure, pancreas cancer, aspiration pneumonia, contributed by acute renal failure, and acute tubular necrosis.
In the obituary, Mr. Fenty was remembered as the father of six children, grandfather to 10, and great-grandfather to several more. The document also referred to Rihanna as 'The Right Excellent Robyn Rihanna Fenty,' in acknowledgement of the national honor given to the Grammy winner by Barbados in 2021.
The soon-to-be mother of three has not made a public statement regarding the death of her father. Barbados Prime Minister Mia Mottley shared an Instagram post at the time and confirmed his passing.
'It is with deep sorrow, that on behalf of the Government and people of Barbados, I extend my sincere condolences to our beloved National Hero, The Right Excellent Robyn Rihanna Fenty, on the passing of her father, Ronald Fenty,' began the honorable caption.
'Ronald was a father, a friend, a neighbour, and a proud Barbadian. Indeed, his path, like so many in our community, was not without struggle, but it was also one marked by love, growth, and a deep connection to the people and place that shaped him. To Rihanna, her mother Monica, her brothers Rorrey, Rajad and Jamie, sisters Kandy and Samantha, and all members of the Fenty family, I offer my deepest sympathies. I equally extend my condolences to Ronald's friends and loved ones, both here in Barbados and abroad.'
