Rihanna's Billion-Dollar Fortune Under Review Amid Prenuptial Stance

Pop and business figure Rihanna is reportedly facing internal discussions among close associates regarding the protection of her estimated $1.4 billion fortune. This substantial wealth is primarily derived from her entrepreneurial endeavors, most notably Fenty Beauty, which holds an approximate valuation of $2.8 billion, with Rihanna maintaining a 50 percent stake in partnership with the luxury conglomerate LVMH.

The focus of these discussions centers on her long-term relationship with rapper A$AP Rocky, who has publicly referred to her as his wife. The core issue reportedly stems from Rihanna's reported refusal to consider a prenuptial or post-nuptial agreement, a stance sources suggest she views as undermining her commitment to A$AP Rocky. Friends are reportedly citing statistics on marriage dissolution rates to advocate for formalizing agreements during this amicable period.

Rihanna's financial portfolio also includes a significant holding in the lingerie brand Savage X Fenty, valued near $1 billion, where she possesses a 30 percent share. Legal perspectives indicate that prenuptial agreements are increasingly utilized by high-net-worth individuals, such as Rihanna, who has sold over 250 million records, to safeguard pre-marital assets. The financial exposure resulting from a lack of such agreements in high-profile separations, exemplified by the divorce of Jeff Bezos and MacKenzie Scott, serves as a point of caution for advisors.

Insiders suggest Rihanna operates from a position of complete trust, believing A$AP Rocky deserves his current lifestyle supported by her assets and that he has consistently warranted her confidence. Adding to the public scrutiny, A$AP Rocky, legally named Rakim Athelston Mayers, recently stood trial in Los Angeles on felony assault charges related to a November 2021 incident. Rihanna attended the trial, which concluded in January 2025 with a jury finding Rocky not guilty on two felony counts, following his rejection of a plea deal that involved jail time.

A January 2025 court clarification noted that despite A$AP Rocky’s public references, Rihanna is legally documented as his significant other, not his confirmed spouse. The couple, both 36 at the time of the trial, share two sons, RZA and Riot, and recently welcomed a third child, Rocki Irish. Rihanna's reported resistance to legal financial planning, despite the scale of her assets, places her financial standing in a position defined by personal trust within the high-profile financial sphere.
