Rihanna gave sons four-word message during A$AP Rocky’s court appearance
A$AP Rocky has been accused of firing a semi-automatic handgun at his former friend in 2021
Rihanna's sons made an appearance in court to support their dad A$AP Rocky, as she asked them to give him an emotional message.
It isn't the first time that the singer has been spotted supporting her partner in court, after the rapper was accused of shooting at his former friend A$AP Relli in a 'heated discussion'.
But this time, Rihanna brought along the couple's two young sons, RZA, two, and Riot, one.
The 36-year-old's gun trial will soon come to an end at Clara Shortridge Foltz Criminal Justice Center in Los Angeles.

But Rihanna made her appearance during the prosecutions opening statements, accompanied by her two little ones and an older lady.
The star wore a black leather coat, whilst her two sons wore suits to support their dad.
It has been reported that the little ones were extremely well behaved and very quiet during the court hearing.
During a break from the trial, Rihanna and A$AP came together for a family hug, as she prompted the babies to give their dad a touching message.
'Wish Daddy good luck', she reportedly said, before the rapper turned towards his family and gave them all a kiss.
The star then left through a back door, but returned to court without the children later on.
Following the allegations, Rocky was arrested at LAX in April 2022, but was shortly released on bail.
Relli then proceeded to file a civil lawsuit against Rocky in August the same year.
Rocky denies any accusations that he fired a gun at his former pal, but the judge determined that there was indeed enough evidence for a trial to go ahead.
He has alleged that the gun he carried around was fake for security reasons.
His tour manager Lou Levin came forward as a witness during the trial, and stated: "Security and I thought it would be a good idea, because of the prior violence.
"It's just a non-lethal form of self-defence."
Closing arguments were heard by the court earlier today, with deliberations set to begin later on.
While denying the claims made against him, he also declined to take the stand to testify in his trial.
But the consequences if he is found guilty are immense, as the star could face up to 24 years in prison.
