Rihanna is said to be tightening security around her family after a terrifying gun attack targeted her luxury home in Beverly Hills.

The 38-year-old singer was reportedly inside the mansion with partner A$AP Rocky and their young children when at least ten shots were fired at the property on Sunday evening. 

Police later arrested 35-year-old Ivanna Ortiz in connection with the shocking incident.

According to reports, the frightening ordeal has left the chart-topping star shaken. 

Insiders claim the pop superstar has increased security around the home and even postponed a planned photo shoot while she processes what happened.

One source said the Diamonds singer initially struggled to understand the chaos. 

“Rihanna heard the shots but didn’t immediately realise what was going on,” they explained, adding that the situation has been deeply unsettling despite the strong security already in place.

The couple’s children, RZA, three, Riot, two, and baby Rocki, were all inside the house when the gunfire erupted. 

Investigators allege the suspect fired the shots from a white Tesla before speeding away. 

Officers later tracked down the vehicle in nearby Sherman Oaks, where Ortiz was arrested.

Authorities say the attack may have been foreshadowed by troubling social media posts allegedly written by the suspect days earlier, which reportedly contained abusive remarks directed at the Love on the Brain hitmaker.

The case is now being handled by the Los Angeles Police Department’s Robbery, Homicide Division, and Ortiz is facing an attempted murder charge.
