Rihanna and A$AP Rocky are now officially the parents of two! On August 21, TMZ reported that the Anti singer “secretly” welcomed her second baby boy earlier this month in Los Angeles, on August 3, 2023.
Not many more details are available about the newest addition to the family, but according to TMZ, it's confirmed that RiRi and Rocky are continuing the alliteration trend and have picked another “R” name for their second son.
Rihanna and A$AP Rocky's first child together, RZA — named in homage to the legendary Wu-Tang rapper of the same name — was born on May 13, 2022. Rihanna announced her second pregnancy earlier this year in the most iconic way possible, revealing her surprise “special guest” while headlining the 2023 Super Bowl halftime show.
Rihanna has revolutionized maternity fashion, taking over red carpets and the Met Gala for nearly two years straight. Her topless maternity photo shoot, which she shared to social media a few days after RZA's first birthday, nearly broke the Internet. In the caption, Rih noted that this was just the “2022” edition of the shoot, and the post was “to be continued.” We can't wait to see what else she has in store for us — maybe another editorial family portrait with newly-appointed big bro RZA?
Earlier this year, Rihanna, Rocky, and RZA covered British Vogue. While speaking to the outlet, Rihanna called motherhood “legendary.” “It’s everything," she said fondly. “You really don’t remember life before, that’s the craziest thing ever." Congratulations to the happy family!
