USA - Just a few days after the start of the trial against rapper A$AP Rocky (36), his partner Rihanna (36) appeared in court to stand by him, even though he is facing up to 24 years in prison.

The singer entered the building in the US city of Los Angeles through a side entrance yesterday, Wednesday.

As reported by The U.S. Sun, the 36-year-old took a secret elevator directly into the courtroom.

There she took her seat in the front row, alongside Rocky's mother and sister.

The rapper is accused of shooting his friend A$AP Relli several times in 2021. He was charged with two counts of assault with a semi-automatic firearm.

The 36-year-old pleaded not guilty and stated that he had used a prop gun. He faces up to 24 years in prison. Just a few days ago, he rejected an offer that would have earned him just six months in prison.

Despite the serious allegations, Rihanna is standing by her partner, even though a lawyer initially said she would not appear at the hearing.
