According to him, the Fenty Beauty founder sent a ventilator to his Caribbean home, giving him “more than enough” to battle the illness. Fenty further added, “I got a fever up inside of my nose. I had a fever across my lips. It was just a lot of fever. I feared the worst. I thought I was going to die, honestly.”
