If there was any doubt Rihanna was ride or die for A$AP Rocky amid his ongoing assault trial … she made it quite clear with a Valentine’s post Friday night.
RiRi shared a PDA and loved-up tribute to her bae via several snaps and video with the caption … “Get u a valentine that still writes love letters 😉💌.”
Most of the tribute was of the long-time couple holding hands and goofing around in Paris … including them smooching in front of the Eiffel Tower.
The joy shown in the IG post was a long cry from how the couple spent their dramatic Valentine’s Day … both in an L.A. courtroom for closing statements from the prosecution in A$AP’s assault trial.

Rihanna has been in attendance several times for A$AP … and even brought the couple’s two children with her on Thursday … which triggered a crazy moment on Friday, when she was there again — but solo.
2/14/25District Attorney John Lewin went out of his way to make it clear to the jury they should not be swayed by the appearance of the superstar and the couple’s sons — RZA, 2, and Riot, 18 months.
Lewin went so far as to tell the jury a couple of times … “you are not allowed” to consider RiRi’s star status and what A$AP going to prison would mean to the kids and family as a whole.
