There are four of them altogether! ET has received confirmation from several sources that Rihanna has given birth to her second child with A$AP Rocky.
“Rihanna and ASAP will spend the early days of parenthood out of the public eye and won’t make any immediate plans to debut the new baby,” a source tells ET. The same source adds that there has been talk of linking the baby announcement to Rihanna’s Clara Lionel Foundation, as well as the possibility of making the announcement on Instagram or even at her annual gala. As at this moment, there has been no confirmation of anything. TMZ was the first media outlet to break the story of the family’s upcoming new member.
Rihanna and A$AP are reportedly doing well as of right now, according to a source who spoke to ET. They have such a shared vision for how they want to raise their children and can’t contain their excitement about expanding their family. They are deeply in love with one another and have a lot of fun together. They always had a particular connection with one another, but being parents together has made that relationship much stronger.
A source informed Entertainment Tonight (ET) one month ago that Rihanna and Rocky did not want to relocate from Los Angeles until after the birth of their child. “She’s limited work obligations as well,” the insider said, adding that Rihanna and Rocky “are each other’s rock” and have been extremely excellent about prioritizing their relationship even though they are busy parents. “She’s limited work obligations as well,” the source added. “She’s limited work obligations as well.”
The source said that “she knows her world is about to get exponentially busier with two babies in the house under the age of two.”
Rihanna’s announcement that she was expecting her second child at the halftime performance of the Super Bowl LVII in February sent a tidal wave of excitement over the internet. During the performance, the well-known pop artist showed off her growing baby bulge, and her representative later confirmed the news to Entertainment Tonight soon thereafter.
Even though many people were taken aback by the news of Rihanna’s pregnancy, a source close to the couple told ET at the time that they “have always wanted to grow their family.”
Rihanna considers being a mother to be her greatest achievement in life, and she does it with much joy. According to the source, both she and A$AP have always had the intention of expanding their family by having another child together. “They have been discussing the possibility of growing their family for a considerable amount of time. Rihanna considers motherhood to be the pinnacle of her life, and she does it with an abundance of pride.
Rihanna took her skills to the Oscars stage in March when she was still pregnant with her second child. She sang “Lift Me Up,” the tune that was nominated for an Oscar and was included in the film Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.
During the whole of her performance, A$AP was seen in the crowd, where he proudly stood and cheered for her. Later on that evening, journalists captured images of him cooing over her pregnant belly backstage.
In May of 2022, Rihanna and A$AP brought their first child into the world, a boy they called RZA. In spite of the fact that they often keep their family photographs private, the pair decided to pose for British Vogue together just before the Super Bowl. She referred to becoming a mother as “legendary,” and she said, “It’s everything. The fact that you have no memory of your life before this is the weirdest thing that could possibly happen.
Rihanna also posted a picture of her kid before to the Oscars with the caption, “he found out his sibling is going to the Oscars and not him.” Rihanna joked that her son was upset because “he found out his sibling is going to the Oscars and not him.”
The prospective mother of two did not attend the Met Gala in 2022; however, she did attend in May of 2023, wearing a white Valentino gown that showed off her growing baby belly.
Rihanna said to ET on her second pregnancy that “it’s so different from the first one,” referring to her first pregnancy. “There are no desires. I felt sick to my stomach. Although everything is different, I’m having a good time with it. I am in a nice mood. I have a lot of energy.
When Rihanna and A$AP first appeared onstage together in 2012, it was immediately rumored that the two were romantically involved. However, it wasn’t until nearly a decade later before the two were confirmed to be an item in the public eye.
Before they started dating, the two had been close friends for a long time. A$AP Yams verified this fact when he made Rihanna publically known as the love of his life in an interview with GQ in May of 2021.
