# Rihanna Biography Flash - March 2026 Update Rihanna's life continues to unfold on multiple fronts as we move through late March 2026. On the legal front, according to Entertainment Tonight and ABC News, a significant courtroom development occurred when 35-year-old Ivanna Lisette Ortiz pleaded not guilty to fourteen felony counts, including attempted murder and assault with a semi-automatic firearm. The charges stem from a March 8th incident in which Ortiz allegedly fired an AR-15 style rifle outside Rihanna and A$AP Rocky's gated Beverly Hills estate.
