Rihanna‘s showing support for her man A$AP Rocky while his trial comes to an end … pulling up to court on the day closing arguments are set to take place — with her two kids in tow.
The singer-songwriter hopped out of a black SUV in front of the courthouse Thursday … wearing a black leather jacket while her security held an umbrella to keep her out of the rain.
Her two children — RZA and Riot — came along with RiRi … the first time they’ve been spotted going to court throughout this whole ordeal.
Rihanna didn’t say anything on her way into court … appearing pensive while she waited to hear the final arguments — and possibly a verdict — in the assault case.
In court, baby Riot sat on Rihanna’s lap, wearing a blue suit with sparkly silver stripes, holding a turquoise binky. As he fussed a bit, she wiped his face with little washcloths, patted his tummy and rocked him back and forth. She whispered into his ear and gave him a colorful book to occupy him.
As you know … Rocky is on trial after his former friend A$AP Relli claimed Rocky beat him up, pulled a gun on him, and even allegedly shot him. Rocky has denied the claims — with his lawyer Joe Tacopina saying he couldn’t have shot Relli because the gun he’s holding in a video allegedly showing the incident is a prop gun.

Rihanna has gone to court multiple times to show her support … and, she’s seen the trial get heated — with Relli and Tacopina regularly getting into it on the stand.
It’s not clear exactly when the verdict in this case is coming down … but, Rocky could face up to 24 years in jail if convicted on both counts of assault with a semiautomatic firearm.
The whole family is together to see Rocky’s trial come to an end … though we don’t know yet if it will be a happy reunion or a tearful goodbye.
