RIHANNA CONFIRMS BABY NO. 3 WITH A$AP ROCKY AT MET GALA EVE, GLOWS IN BUMP REVEAL
Rihanna is adding another little one to the Fenty empire! The Barbadian beauty mogul and global superstar confirmed she’s pregnant with her third child for rapper A$AP Rocky, sending fans and paparazzi into a frenzy just hours before the 2025 Met Gala.
The “Diamonds” hitmaker debuted her baby bump Monday night while arriving at New York’s Carlyle Hotel—a pre-Gala hotspot. Styled to perfection, Rihanna made the sidewalk her runway, revealing the surprise in the most Rihanna-esque way: effortlessly and unapologetically iconic.
Her partner, A$AP Rocky, one of this year’s Met Gala co-chairs, later graced the red carpet alongside fellow hosts Colman Domingo, LeBron James, Lewis Hamilton, and Pharrell Williams.
Rumors of another pregnancy had been swirling since her 2023 Super Bowl halftime performance, where she subtly cradled her belly mid-performance. Her reps later confirmed baby number two, Riot, who joined big brother RZA in August 2023.
Rihanna, who recently told Interview magazine that she’s open to having “as many [kids] as God wants me to have,” also hinted at wanting a baby girl, though she said she’s happy either way.
And it’s not just babies on the horizon for this power couple: Rihanna is voicing Smurfette in the animated Smurfs movie hitting theaters July 18, while Rocky gears up to drop his fourth studio album Don’t Be Dumb and appear in Spike Lee’s Highest 2 Lowest, premiering August 22.
Rihanna also continues to show up strong for her man, standing by Rocky’s side throughout his recent legal battle in Los Angeles, where he was ultimately acquitted of assault charges. The rapper’s emotional courtroom hug with Rihanna, his mom, and sister said it all; this couple is rock-solid and ready for their next chapter.
