Rihanna and A$AP Rocky put on united front during first appearance together since his arrest over shooting
Rihanna and A$AP Rocky were spotted on a date night together for the first time since the rapper was arrested in connection to an alleged shooting last week. The Wild Thoughts singer Rihanna recently jetted back to Los Angeles from Barbados, where she and Rocky were on holiday before his arrest upon landing at LAX airport last Wednesday. During their outing on Saturday evening, the couple – who are expecting their first child together – put on a united front as they strolled around the city. Of course, Rihanna, 34, opted for somewhat comfortable attire as she nears the final stages of her pregnancy, dressed in a glitzy bra and matching shorts with an oversized white shirt left unbuttoned to leave her baby bump on show. Rocky also kept it casual in a grey tracksuit with a flower pattern and T-shirt. While the Goldie rapper appeared to be in good spirits with a smile on his face, Rihanna seemed to be deep in thought amid what has been a controversial couple of weeks for their relationship. Last week, Rocky, 33, was taken into police custody at LAX airport in relation to an alleged shooting that is said to have taken place in November 2021. It was reported that around 10 police officers were waiting for the musician, who was ‘blindsided’ about the arrest with the LAPD keeping their investigation under wraps. According to the police department, Rocky and the alleged victim were ‘acquaintances’ and that an ‘argument escalated and resulted in the suspect firing a handgun at the victim’. They continued in a statement: ‘The victim sustained a minor injury from the incident and later sought his medical treatment.
