Rihanna’s Father Ronald Fenty’s Official Cause Of Death Revealed

Rihanna’s father, Ronald Fenty, has passed away at the age of 71 following a battle with multiple health complications. According to a death certificate obtained by TMZ, Fenty died on May 30th at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles due to acute respiratory failure, pancreatic cancer, and aspiration pneumonia, a severe bacterial infection in the lungs.

The document also notes other contributing conditions, including acute renal failure and acute tubular necrosis, both of which point to significant kidney damage in the final stages of his illness.

Fenty’s death marks a difficult moment for Rihanna, whose relationship with her father has seen many ups and downs over the years.

Despite the turbulent history between father and daughter, their eventual reconciliation gave fans hope that they had reached a place of peace. His passing leaves behind a complex legacy, shaped by both personal struggles and moments of family closeness in recent years.
