Rihanna and A$AP Rocky are expecting their first child together.
Over the weekend, Rihanna debuted her growing belly as she rocked a cute half-buttoned long fuchsia winter coat with baggy jeans, blinged-out accessories and a gold Chanel chain belt for added swag. The fit revealed that the 33-year-old mogul was expecting.
Celebrity photographer Miles Diggs captured the gorgeous photos while the couple were in Harlem and posted one photo confirming Rihanna’s pregnancy on Instagram.
“She is,” the caption read while the photo showed an adorable baby bump.

Seeing Rihanna pregnant made me remember how I used to make you feel like you were the only girl in the world and also made me realize you da one. It’s sad I wasn’t there when you needed me under your umbrella. You don’t have to reply, Te amo. pic.twitter.com/4nBMrMOXa2

Rocky and Rihanna had been friends since 2013 before they crossed over to the relationship zone. Although they have been together well over a year, it’s believed the pair started dating in 2020.
In May, Rocky expressed that the Bajan beauty was the “love of my life.”
He also referred to her as “the One.”
Rocky made it clear that Rihanna had his heart, and he never felt better.
“So much better. So much better when you got ‘the One.’ She amounts to probably, like, a million of the other ones. I think when you know, you know. She’s the One.”
In May 2020, Rihanna told British Vogue that having a family was definitely in her future.
“I know I will want to live differently,” she added, mentioning that within the next ten years, she sees herself having “three or four” children, whether she has a partner or not.
“I feel like society makes me want to feel like, ‘Oh, you got it wrong …’ They diminish you as a mother if there’s not a dad in your kids’ lives,” said Rihanna. “But the only thing that matters is happiness; that’s the only healthy relationship between a parent and a child. That’s the only thing that can raise a child truly, is love.”
Well, it looks like Rihanna and Rocky have made their baby dreams come true.
Congrats to them both!
