At the 2025 Met Gala, Rihanna confirmed she is expecting her third child with A$AP Rocky. The singer debuted her baby bump on the red carpet, wearing a Marc Jacobs ensemble that highlighted her pregnancy. A$AP Rocky, serving as a co-chair for the event, expressed their happiness about the news.
This marks Rihanna and A$AP Rocky’s third child, after their sons RZA (born 2022) and Riot Rose (born 2023). The couple, known for keeping things cool and stylishly unpredictable, let the world in on their happy news in the most Rihanna way possible: no press release, no announcement, just vibes and visuals.
Standing beside her, A$AP Rocky looked like the proudest dad on earth. Wearing a sleek black suit and diamond-studded brooches, the rapper beamed as cameras snapped away. He later confirmed the pregnancy in interviews, telling reporters, “We’re blessed. That’s all I’ll say.”
In a twist that added to the drama of the night, Shakira may have spilled the tea early. While speaking to reporters during her own Met Gala walk, she accidentally exclaimed, “She’s pregnant!” before quickly catching herself. The internet caught the clip before it could be buried, and yes, we are still cackling.
Whether it was a genuine slip or a planned tease, it only heightened the anticipation for Rihanna’s grand entrance. And when she finally showed up? The fashion gods bowed.
Rihanna’s look was more than fashion, it was storytelling. Critics are calling her 2025 Met Gala appearance a “visual metaphor for rebirth,” with her blooming ensemble symbolizing new life (and new headlines).
She didn’t walk. She glided. And in true Rihanna form, she let the look speak louder than words. The bump was the accessory, and she knew exactly what she was doing.
Look. We love Baby Fenty #3. We do. But the Rihanna Navy remains unshaken in its mission to demand one thing: R9. Fans immediately began joking online:
“At this rate, the album’s gonna drop at the baby’s christening.”
Until then, we’re happy to accept Met Gala slayage and maternity magic as substitutes.
