Honor Thy Father and Mother? Celebs Who’ve Fallen Out with Their Parents
Rihanna and her Father Ronald Fenty
While in Barbados, Rihanna’s father, Ronald Fenty was addicted to crack cocaine and struggled with alcoholism when she was a child. She watched her parents’ marriage disintegrate in front of her as her father kept going back to his addictions. When her parents divorced when she was 14, she refused communication with him.
For 10 years she refused to talk to him, but now, they have rebuilt their relationship and things seem to be good between the two, even though Ronald occasionally talks out the side of his neck, encouraging Rihanna to lose weight and reunite with Chris Brown.
