Mother-of-Three Claims Rihanna’s Fiancé A$AP Rocky, 33, Has Been ‘Secretly Messaging Her Behind The Pregnant Singer’s Back’
A British mother-of-three has accused Rihanna’s fiancé A$AP Rocky of ‘secretly messaging’ her for months, just weeks after he denied rumors that he’d cheated on the singer with shoe designer Amina Muaddi.
The Sun claimed that a woman named Jilly O’Donnell, 45, was contacted by someone who appears to be the rapper, 33, on Instagram, where he ‘bombarded her with flirty messages.’
According to Jilly, the alleged communication between herself and Rocky began in December 2021 and continued until ‘the start of last month.’
It was also alleged that he once offered to fly Jilly ‘1,700 miles to Ukraine to meet him’ months prior to the Russian invasion in February.
In a message purported to be from the rapper, he wrote: ‘I’m down, would you be down to meet me in Ukraine? If I sort it out I could arrange for u to be there when I get there.’
Responding to the message, Jilly insisted travel restrictions prevented her from flying as the UK continued to feel repercussions of the coronavirus pandemic.
She wrote: ‘I can’t get to Ukraine haha, I can’t even afford Xmas after lockdown last year. Plus the Prime Minister is a fat useless b*****d so no one is allowed anywhere. You should come here. Ukraine sounds freezing.’
Rocky allegedly responded with: ‘What you guys can’t travel anywhere???? That sucks. I just got here. Freezing my f*****g balls off. The gym here is beautiful though.’
He later added: ‘Man, I got so fat in the past week. Wish we could have worked out.’
Speaking to the outlet, Jilly alleged that Rocky reached out on the social media app in December but she initially ‘had absolutely no idea who he was.
‘I saw there was a blue tick on his name on Instagram so I asked my daughters. They told me it’s Rihanna’s boyfriend and thought it was hilarious,’ she claimed.
Rihanna, 33, is currently pregnant with her and Rocky’s first child. In December 2021, the Umbrella singer was believed to be at least four months along in her pregnancy.
Jilly claimed that Rocky had sent her three messages over the span of ten hours without any response from her.
When she did finally reply to the rapper’s alleged direct messages, she claimed that he ‘liked her comment with a heart emoji’ and they went on to ‘exchange dozens of messages’ over the next several months.
Jilly claims to have no idea why she was seemingly messaged by the rapper when he has 14.7million followers on Instagram, while she has just 1,500 followers.
‘I was having a laugh with my kids saying “your mum might be 45 but she’s still got it.” We’ve all been in stitches about it,’ she told the outlet.
Jilly claimed that Rocky sent her another message later that day, with the musician allegedly saying that he had put weight on and wishes they could work out together.
She told The Sun that there was ‘no way [she] would have flown out to meet him in Ukraine,’ but other women probably would have due to his celebrity status.
She added that lots of women would jump at the chance to meet a famous, rich musician but she found it all to just be a bit of a laugh.
Jilly concluded that nothing happened and it was all a ‘pretty light-hearted’ conversation, adding that she hopes Rocky and Rihanna will be very happy together.
Jilly’s alleged interactions with Rocky come just weeks after Rihanna was rumored to have split with the father of her child after she found him cheating with the shoe designer, Amina Muaddi.

Meet the Man Who Turned Hype Into a Science: Emmy Blaq, Nigeria’s G.O.A.T. of Hype
If you have ever been at a Nigerian event and found yourself on your feet before the main act even stepped on stage, there is a good chance a hype man was responsible. But not just any hype man. Emmy Blaq, born Ikechukwu Emmanuel Chima and raised in Auchi, Edo State, has spent the last few years quietly becoming the most talked-about name in that profession, and the Nigerian press has taken notice. Punch, Vanguard, The Guardian Nigeria, The Nation, and Independent Newspaper have all sat down with him, and every conversation leads back to the same thing: this man does not just make noise; he makes moments.
What makes Emmy Blaq different is the journey behind the energy. Before the stages, the collaborations with Waje on her “Waje 2.0” album, DJ Consequence, and DJ Kaywise on the massively streamed “Joor Party Mix” series, he was repairing generators, cutting hair, and sewing clothes in Auchi. His first professional hype gig happened at a local fast food spot called Valchi, and the crowd response that night changed everything. He told The Nation directly: “My passion for entertainment and desire to make people happy led me into the craft.” Punch also captured his bigger mission when he said that hype men deserve more than what they currently earn, a statement that sparked a real conversation across Nigerian entertainment circles.
With over 1.7 million TikTok followers, 23.6 million TikTok likes, a viral “Wife Material” challenge that landed on Pulse Nigeria’s top ten social media moments of 2021, and an international performance at the Cameroon International Music Festival that Cameroonian media described as electrifying, Emmy Blaq is not building toward something. He is already there. The G.O.A.T. of Hype is not a title he gave himself and hoped would stick. It is one the rooms keep confirming every single time he grabs the mic.
