Rihanna Is Going to Be a Mom of Three!

The queen of reinvention has done it again. Rihanna, the Grammy-winning superstar and beauty mogul, is officially expecting her third child with partner A$AP Rocky, a source close to the couple confirmed to Page Six. The 37-year-old icon surprised fans and fashion lovers alike when she debuted her baby bump just moments before gracing the 2025 Met Gala carpet, radiating maternal elegance.

Before setting foot on fashion’s biggest stage, Rihanna made a quiet yet dazzling appearance at the Carlyle Hotel in New York City. Despite the gloomy weather and black umbrellas shielding her from the rain, the singer’s presence was impossible to miss. She stepped out in a sophisticated gray two-piece skirt set, pairing it with matching knee-high stockings and sleek gray pumps. Ever the fashion risk-taker, she occasionally draped a brown fur scarf across her growing belly, subtly teasing what would soon be an unforgettable revelation.

When she finally made her entrance at the Met Gala, the confirmation came straight from the source. A$AP Rocky, ever the supportive partner, proudly acknowledged the pregnancy while speaking to reporters. With a wide smile, he shared that Rihanna’s outfit choice was “whatever just don’t really cover her baby bump,” affirming the exciting news with heartwarming candor.

This marks another milestone for the power couple, who are already parents to two beautiful sons. Their first child, RZA, was born in May 2022, followed by Riot Rose in August 2023. Now, with a third baby on the way, Rihanna and Rocky continue to build the family they once only dreamed of.

A Dream She Always Carried

Rihanna has never shied away from speaking her truth, especially when it comes to her desires for motherhood. Back in December 2023, she hinted at the possibility of expanding her family during an interview with E! News. When asked if there was anything she couldn’t do, she replied with a playful sparkle in her eye, “So far, have daughters. I’m batting at 75 percent for a boy next time. So, we’ll just keep our fingers crossed.” It was a lighthearted moment that now feels beautifully prophetic.

Her vision of motherhood goes beyond societal expectations. In her 2020 cover story for British Vogue, Rihanna opened up about her plans to have three or four children, partner or not. Her honesty about defying norms was both bold and empowering. “I feel like society makes me want to feel like, ‘Oh, you got it wrong …’ They diminish you as a mother if there’s not a dad in your kids’ lives,” she said at the time.

“But the only thing that matters is happiness, that’s the only healthy relationship between a parent and a child. That’s the only thing that can raise a child truly — is love.”

And love is something Rihanna and A$AP Rocky seem to have in abundant supply. The couple’s story began years ago when they collaborated on her 2012 remix of “Cockiness (Love It).” While their friendship blossomed quietly over the years, romance didn’t officially spark until 2020. Since then, they’ve grown into one of Hollywood’s most captivating pairs — effortlessly blending music, fashion, and parenthood into a life filled with mutual respect and admiration.

Rocky first gushed about Rihanna in a 2021 interview with GQ, calling her “the one” in what became a headline-making declaration of devotion. The world watched with awe in January 2022 when Rihanna revealed her first pregnancy in an iconic street-style moment, strolling through snowy New York in an open pink coat and jeweled belly chain. She turned heads once again during the 2023 Super Bowl Halftime Show, proudly debuting her second baby bump in a fierce red jumpsuit on one of the world’s biggest stages.

Throughout it all, Rihanna has embraced motherhood with a fierce and nurturing spirit. Her love for her children — and for Rocky — shines through in every interview, photo, and candid moment. In December 2023, she shared with Access Hollywood just how deeply her feelings for Rocky had evolved since they became parents.

“I loved him differently as a dad,” she said with admiration. “It’s just like, ‘Wow! What a leader, what a great, patient, loving [dad].’”

Those words spoke volumes, giving fans a glimpse into the quiet strength of their bond and the shared joy they find in raising their children. Their journey has been one of growth, evolution, and an unshakable commitment to family.

Now, as they prepare to welcome their third child, the anticipation among fans is sky-high. Rihanna continues to inspire with her fearless authenticity, showing the world that motherhood is not the end of ambition — it is a powerful, beautiful extension of it.

With every public appearance, every tender quote, and every radiant reveal, Rihanna redefines what it means to be a modern woman, artist, and mother. And if the past is any indication, she’s only just getting started.
