Rihanna and A$AP Rocky have welcomed a daughter to their brood of boys.
On Wednesday, the singer shared the joyful news via an Instagram post, alongside photos of herself cradling the newborn. Joining RZA and Riot is Rocki Irish Mayers, she revealed in the caption, noting her birthday as September 13 and continuing the tradition of ‘R’ names for their children.
Until May of this year, the Fenty mogul had managed to evade pregnancy rumours for months before she was photographed with a growing bump peeking out from her Miu Miu set as she stepped out in New York City just ahead of the 2025 Met Gala.
Having debuted pregnancies for both sons, RZA in 2022 and Riot in 2023, in similarly dramatic fashions, her third reveal was equally epic as she arrived at the Met’s red carpet in a deconstructed Marc Jacobs suit that emphasised her bump.
When she teased that she had “brought the kids” with her, fans erupted into frenzied theories, some wondering whether twins were on the way, others cheekily lamenting, “We’re never getting another album.”
In June, Rocky, whose real name is Rakim Athelston Mayers, appeared to drop a hint when asked whether the long-awaited baby girl was finally on the horizon. Holding up a Smurfette doll on the red carpet at the Smurfs premiere in Brussels, the rapper laughed off speculation but left the internet buzzing.
Rihanna also played along, joking that she could just as easily be carrying a “Papa Smurf.”
