In 2012, however, both managed to approach again. In a conversation with Oprah Winfrey, Rihanna explained that he had learned to distinguish between the father and the husband that Ronald was. “He taught me everything, and no matter how terrible it was with my mother, at some times, that does not compare to how wonderful it was as a father.
