Ciara has got 'a lot of love' for Rihanna as she breaks silence on rumored rift
Ciara has revealed her bad blood with Rihanna is now water under the bridge. In an interview with Bravo's Watch What Happens Live on Thursday, the 39-year-old singer revealed that past tension has now disappeared. 'CiCi got a lot of love for RiRi,' said Ciara. The feud between the stunning singers started in February of 2011, when Ciara admitted she and Rihanna hadn't been on the best of terms while appearing on the E! series Fashion Police. Ciara said back then: 'I ran into her recently at a party and she wasn't the nicest and it's crazy because I've always loved and respected what she's done with fashion. I've ran into her before, but this time it wasn't the most pleasant run-in.' However, she's now revealed they have both matured and traded their youthful rivalries for parental responsibilities. Ciara is parents to four kids: son Future Zahir 11, with rapper Future; and with Wilson, daughter Sienna Princess, eight, son Win Harrison, four, and Amora Princess, one. Rihanna is mom to two kids with ASAP Rocky - sons RZA Athelston Mayers, two, and Riot Rose Mayers, one - and expecting her third. Ciara went on: 'Oh my gosh, we were babies - now we're mamas doing our thing - it's all love.' Ciara said that she recently crossed paths with Rihanna at the Met Gala last month, revealing they 'got to have a good conversation'. She added: 'She's now having her third baby, which is so cool - so shout out to mamas out here doing everything!' Back in 2011, after Ciara was critical of the S&M singer on the E! series, Rihanna replied to the onscreen snub tweeting, 'My bad ci, did I 4get to tip u? #howrudeofme.' Ciara replied: 'Trust me Rhianna u dont want to see me on or off the stage' to which Rihanna said in reply, 'U gangsta huh? Haaa. Good luck with bookin that stage u speak of.'

Although the pair had a complex relationship, which included periods of both reconciliation and estrangement, an insider told exclusively that the death of the superstar's dad has taken a heavy toll on the superstar (born Robyn Rihanna Fenty), 37. 'Robyn has had a very difficult relationship with her father over the years but his death has hit her like a ton of bricks. Being pregnant and dealing with ASAP's legal woes have been an emotional roller coaster for her the last few months, and to add to it all, her dad was getting sick, and it started to become too much,' the source added. They continued: 'As much as you realize that something like this is occurring, it is still completely heartbreaking and that is where she is right now.' The insider also noted that she 'has forgiven her father and, in death, they got back to a loving father and daughter relationship.' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'But, she is in pain, especially being a mother herself and there being a chance that her kids would have lost their dad to jail a few months back, she feels how important family is,' the source explained. 'This is going to take a long time, and maybe even forever to get over. Sad time in her world right now.' Over the weekend, news broke that Fenty died at age 70 in Los Angeles following a 'brief illness,' according to Starcom Network, a local outlet from Barbados. At this time, his official cause and date of death have not been made public. has contacted representatives for Rihanna for comment but did not immediately hear back. Rihanna and her dad had a tumultuous relationship, which saw them become embroiled in legal woes at one point. The strained relationship with her father was brought into the spotlight in 2009—four years after her debut single—when she revealed they hadn't spoken in more than a year. 'I've been the one trying to reconcile with him forever,' she said during an appearance on Ryan Seacrest's Kiis FM radio show, per The Hollywood Reporter. 'I haven't heard from my father in over a year. I try though, I reached out to him. I did my part. Now it's on him.' At the time, she said they had a falling out after he 'embarrassed' her on her tour. 'He disrespected some people on the bus and I didn't like that, so I kind of just let him go back home,' she said. The pop star also said at the time that she was 'upset' that her dad had given interviews following her assault at the hands of then-boyfriend Chris Brown. 'He kind of did something that was really upsetting. He turned his back on me and went to the media,' she continued. 'He got paid to talk about stuff - all these little interviews he was doing after the whole situation in February. 'I hadn't spoken to him and he was speaking as though we did. It was so disappointing to me.' In 2019, she sued her father for using their last name for his company Fenty Entertainment. In the suit, she accused him and his business partner of representing themselves as her agents. She withdrew her lawsuit in 2021, and it's believed that the two came to a settlement. Ronald has battled addiction to crack cocaine in the past and has long been a heavy drinker. Rihanna told Oprah that as a child she witnessed her father physically abuse her mother, once breaking her nose. Then in 2008 Ronald was sent home from her North American tour following his drunken behavior on her tour bus. Ronald has said that Rihanna then froze him out for two years before they reconciled. In 2013 the singer quietly put Ronald through a $58,000 Malibu rehab program to save him from jail after he was arrested during a visit to California. But in 2014 Ronald was thrown out of her Diamond Ball after embarrassing his daughter by getting drunk and falling over on the red carpet. He left California without seeing his daughter on that trip, although the two later reconciled once more. And despite their subsequent legal problems, Rihanna even purchased a large house that he lived in. Rihanna is one of three children Ronald shared with his ex-wife Monica Braithwaite, whom he divorced in 2002. In addition to the Grammy winner, they also have sons Rajad and Rorrey. Ronald also has three other children from previous relationships - Kandy, Samantha, and Jamie. TMZ published a photo of Rihanna's brother Rajad Fenty arriving to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center on Wednesday in a car. His sister Rihanna is said to have been in the vehicle as well however she was not pictured. Despite their conflicts, Rihanna and Ronald appear to have overall remained on good terms. At the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, Ronald praised Rihanna for providing him support after he contracted coronavirus. 'My daughter Robyn was checking in on me every day,' he told The Sun at his home in Barbados April 2020, referring to the pop star by her birth name. Ronald said Rihanna did everything she could to help him from her home in the U.S. 'I thought I was going to die to be honest. I have to say, I love you so much, Robyn,' he told the outlet. 'She did so much for me. I appreciate everything she has done.' The pop star even purchased a ventilator and sent it to Ronald in Barbados, but he had yet to use it at the time. In 2022, Ronald told Page Six he was 'ecstatic' to learn Rihanna was expecting her first child with partner A$AP Rocky (the couple are now expecting baby number three, with Rihanna unveiling her pregnancy at the Met Gala). 'I'm so happy that I jumped for joy. I'm still so excited,' Fenty told the outlet. 'Rihanna always said that she wanted children, she loves kids. She always takes care of her cousins' kids…she's going to be a good mom,' her father said. The celebrity father, who spoke via phone from his home in Barbados, said he found Rocky to be 'a very cool guy' after the two got a chance to meet when his daughter brought the rapper home in December 2020. 'I like him,' he added, before revealing that he got the news of Rihanna's pregnancy a day before she and Rocky (born Rakim Mayers) went public with her burgeoning tummy.

Expert shares best book genre for your mental health - it's not what you think
A new survey reveals that there is a boom in the true crime genre ahead of summer as Brits cope with a destabilising world by solving crimes in their downtime New research suggests that the undeniable appetite for true crime is expanding from podcasts and docuseries into books. Newspaper and magazine subscription platforms are reinvesting in the genre, expecting a particular boost ahead of summer. According to a recent survey from digital magazine and subscription app Readly, two-thirds of Brits said they will read true crime this summer. The platform shares that interest in true crime is high, with 74% of people choosing to read the category as it records the highest average reading times across several genres on its app. The pervasive interest is no surprise considering how expansive the genre is, covering everything from high-profile robberies, serial and domestic murders to playful portraits of white-collar criminals. According to Readly's survey, when it comes to the nature of crimes people follow, 47% read high-profile crimes with major twists, 41% chose to read about unmasked serial killers and 35% are interested in criminals who lead double lives. 'Interest in reading around crime past and present has grown in recent years and true crime themed lifestyle, history and celebrity magazines are amongst some of the most read on the Readly app in terms of reading time,' says Chris Couchman, head of content at Readly. Part of the reason that interest may be spiking ahead of summer could have to do with the high-profile criminal cases that have dominated news coverage this year. 2025 has seen some major A-list court proceedings, including the ASAP Rocky criminal case, the beginning of Kim Kardashian 's robbery proceedings in Paris and the ongoing Diddy trials. But beyond the non-stop courthouse coverage putting crime on the brain, the fascination with the genre can also be a response to a destabilising world. Professor Donna Youngs, criminal and investigative psychologist says that reading true crime can be a way for people to cope or come to grips with some scary realities. 'For some people, when they solve a 'whodunnit', they are actually reassuring themselves that they are clever enough that they would never get caught out. Other people want to know every detail of how a particularly notorious serial killer operated as their way of dealing with the fear these crimes generate," Youngs said. The Readly survey also revealed that 61% of people said they read true crime to understand criminal minds and the psychological aspect and 40% read for the desire for justice and exposing wrongful convictions. The reason many may be picking up true crime books instead of plugging into their favourite influencer detective series or podcast may have to do with the growing backlash against ' TikTok detectives '. To monopolise on the growing and consistent interest in the genre, Readly has launched a true crime retro series with The Evening Standard, featuring some of the most well known crimes across history such as Jack the Ripper, The Great Train Robbery, Serial killer Fred West House of Horrors and The Pearl Robbery.
