Rick Ross Travels to Paris Following Domestic Violence Arrest

Rick Ross set off for Paris to have a upscale dining experience just days after being arrested for domestic assault.

On Monday (Oct. 5), the Set In Stone rapper posted an Instagram carousel of his time at French restaurant César Paris, where the host promised Ross “the best rigatoni in town.” The rapper’s music played over the restaurant speakers while he was served.

“One request,” Ross said. “Heavy marinara,” in reference to a bizarre statement to reporters outside the courthouse after his arrest.

COMPLEX SHOP: Shop the brands you love, anytime and anywhere. Uncover what’s next. Buy. Collect. Obsess.

Last week, Ross, 50, proclaimed his innocence to Miami news station WSVNcalling the allegations made by his ex-girlfriend, 39-year-old Jazzma Kendrick, “fabricated.” He also detailed plans to indulge in a meal of “rigatoni with heavy marinara.”

On Oct. 1, the “Aston Martin Music” rapper was arrested and charged with battery in the alleged assault of Kendrick, who posted photos to Instagram that showed her with a bruised lip. Ross was accused of repeatedly striking Kendrick, choking her until “she could not breathe,” slamming her against a wall, and wounding her lip.

Upon being released on bail, Ross was issued a stay-away order and waived his right to appear in court during a pre-trial hearing.

Prior to Ross’ arrest, Kendrick wrote on Instagram Stories that she’s had time to “process” and “start healing” from the alleged assault. “Speaking up wasn’t easy, but your support reminded me I made the right choice,” she wrote.

The former couple began dating in August 2025 and eventually broke up. The pair appeared to reconcile months later and walked the BET Awards carpet together the following June.
