Rihanna lit up the 2025 Met Gala with more than just fashion—she confirmed that she and A$AP Rocky are expecting their third child. The global music icon made the announcement while stepping out in New York City en route to the star-studded event on Monday, May 5, proudly cradling her growing baby bump in a custom white couture ensemble that instantly stole headlines.
The Fenty mogul, known for redefining maternity fashion, was all smiles as she posed for cameras, radiating joy. Speaking with reporters from Sky News, Rihanna gushed, “It feels amazing,” marking another chapter in what has become one of Hollywood’s most admired love stories.
The couple, who began dating in 2020 and quickly rose to “power couple” status, welcomed their first child, RZA Athelston Mayers, on May 19, 2022. They followed that up with the birth of their second son, Riot Rose, in August 2023. Rihanna had previously hinted in an April 2024 Interview Magazine feature that she was hoping for a girl next time, teasing fans about expanding her family.
Fashion’s biggest night doubled as a glowing maternity reveal, echoing her unforgettable Super Bowl 2023 performance where she surprised fans by debuting her second pregnancy. Once again, Rihanna has seamlessly blended personal milestones with pop culture moments, creating another viral moment with millions of impressions across social media.
A$AP Rocky, stylish as ever, walked beside her in a matching monochrome tuxedo, beaming as they entered the venue. The rapper and fashion maven has often praised Rihanna’s dedication to family, calling fatherhood “his proudest title” in past interviews.
Social media has erupted with congratulations, memes, and fan theories about the baby’s name, gender, and due date. Hashtags like #BabyFenty3, #RihannaPregnantAgain, and #MetGalaQueen are trending globally, reaffirming Rihanna’s unshakable influence at the intersection of music, motherhood, and high fashion.
With this third pregnancy, the Barbadian superstar continues to redefine what it means to be a modern woman in control—of her narrative, her body, and her brand.
