Just before moving on with ASAP Rocky and earning herself a comeback at the Super Bowl LVII, Rihanna had a makor heartbreak.
The "We Found Love" singer's contentious split with billionaire Hassan Jameel, whom she had portrayed as being so serious that they were talking about having children, was detailed by Radar Online just before she was scheduled to perform on TV's biggest event of the year.
The Barbados native apparently wanted to create a family with Hassan in order to further their relationship.
Rihanna was prepared to have children, a source said in 2019 right before their breakup. After all, she had been "healthiest and happiest" in her relationship with Hassan for a very long period at that point.
In 2017, the then-couple began dating and right away laid a solid basis for their union.
However, their relationship ended soon before the world pandemic in 2020.
Insiders claim that Rihanna was devastated by the separation and that her family even begged her to leave Hollywood and go back to Barbados.
After hearing of their breakup, a source said, "Rihanna has a large family who constantly monitors her personal life and they have serious worries about how she is doing."
They believe that she would be more safer at home with them.
Insiders also claimed that the "Umbrella" hitmaker, whose primary residence was in London in 2018, had been partying all over the world to distract herself from her breakup.
Drake and ASAP Rocky, who subsequently became the father of Rihanna's kid, were two other males who were associated with her at the time.
ASAP Rocky was able to win her heart after battling it out with Drake, which immediately lessened her post-breakup blues.
Despite being linked in 2013, the source claimed that the two "have always had a 'friends with benefits' relationship where they don't have to explain anything to one another or expect anything because they're both so busy, working, and traveling."

How Much Is Rihanna Getting Paid For Super Bowl LVII
Rihanna, who has made a billion dollars owing to her popular Fenty Beauty line, will perform as Apple Music's halftime act at Super Bowl LVII.
It's expected that 190 million people will watch the performance on Sunday, especially because it's her first live performance in over six years.
Forbes, however, claims that she won't get paid for this performance because headliners often aren't compensated.
This is due to the fact that the show already reaps significant advantages from exposure to a larger audience. Just 192 million people watched the program last year.
Lady Gaga's album and song sales surged by 1000% when she performed in 2017.
Following the 2020 headlining performance by JLo and Shakira, JLO acquired roughly 2.3 million new followers to her social media profiles.
