Initially, she’s handled my radio. She’s handled my appearance. She’s even made my panties pop. Is there anything she can’t do? Well, up until now, having daughters seemed to be beyond her grasp. I mean, statistically, I’m batting 75% for a boy next time. So we’ll just keep our fingers crossed.
Now, child, it turns out Rihanna was serious about that next time when she talked about only having baby boys and wanting a girl. The surprise was that the next time came so soon. Is that a baby bump people are spying on our girl Riri? I’m here tonight to honor [Music].
Ani, thank you for inviting me. God bless your union. I wish you all the best. Congratulations! How many of you believe in love? Well, ASAP and Rihanna apparently want a baby girl as soon as possible. And you know what? ASAP Rocky is ready for all the baby-making. If my lady and I were to collaborate, what could we come up with, like, team up and just go crazy on? I think we’d do a great job at collaborating and making children. I think that’s our best creation so far. Nothing beats that. I don’t think any designer—well, we had a third designer come and help, a ghost designer named God, you know, who shaped everything, and we had these beautiful angels. That’s the best collaboration.
Okay, for years, fans have been urging Rihanna to release her ninth studio album. But it seems an album won’t be coming anytime soon because she has other plans. Reportedly, she still feels passionate about creating music, but she doesn’t have major plans right now. Her team actually mentioned that Re will take on occasional projects, but she has no plans to commit to a whole new album because she’s busy in her motherhood era.
As you may be aware, Rihanna and ASAP Rocky welcomed their first son, Rizza, in May 2022. Soon after this news settled in for many, Rihanna surprised everyone by revealing her second pregnancy during her Super Bowl halftime show performance, which became a standout moment. However, Rihanna revealed in an interview with Access Hollywood that this reveal was entirely unplanned. She explained that her outfit’s zipper wouldn’t close, prompting her to go with the flow and embrace the unexpected announcement.
Now, Rihanna might be expecting her third child. Speculation began when a photo circulated showing what appeared to be a slight baby bump, but it turned out to be an old image from her second pregnancy. The recent performance at a pre-wedding celebration in India for Mesh Amani’s son fueled further rumors about Rihanna’s potential third pregnancy.
Rihanna traveled to India to perform at the pre-wedding festivities, known for being extravagant affairs hosted by the Amani family. They’ve previously featured renowned artists like Beyoncé and Coldplay’s Chris Martin. Rihanna, thrilled to be back on stage after eight years, expressed her joy and satisfaction with the performance, emphasizing how much she enjoyed returning to the live concert scene
There has been widespread speculation about Rihanna’s performance fee, rumored to be between $8 million and $9 million. It’s remarkable that even before the baby’s arrival, he or she is already contributing to Mama’s earnings. With that kind of payout for a single show, Rihanna might as well take maternity leave right away.
As for the pregnancy rumors, they shouldn’t come as a surprise given Rihanna and ASAP’s desire to expand their family, particularly with hopes for a baby girl. This could explain why they decided to try again. In early December 2023, an insider close to Rihanna and ASAP shared with US Weekly that Rihanna really wants to have a daughter, stating, “Rihanna adores her boys, but she’d still love to have a girl one day. She’s always wanted lots of kids, so that’s definitely something they discussed.” Rihanna herself admitted to “Entertainment Tonight” that despite excelling in various fields like fashion, beauty, music, and business, she finds having daughters challenging.
People are already speculating that Rihanna could be pregnant again. One individual on X commented, “I see everyone’s afraid to talk about it, but Rihanna looks pregnant again. We all know a pregnant walk when we see it.” Another said, “I have a theory about Rihanna. Her waist caught my attention a bit. When she is pregnant, she always wraps things around her waist or prefers to dress more modestly. And the fact that she doesn’t wear high heels is thought-provoking. I don’t think this is traditional.” Moreover, fans noted that Rihanna’s abdomen appeared flat a few weeks ago, but during her recent pre-wedding performance, it seemed to protrude, indicating a possible pregnancy.
If anyone believes that Rihanna has reservations about having a large family, they would be mistaken. Previously uncertain about what a family might look like for her, Rihanna candidly expressed her thoughts. According to her, the only certainty she had about starting a family was that her children would likely inherit her distinctive forehead. “Um, the only thing I could picture was probably my baby having my forehead. Rorrey doesn’t have it. I’d be like, wait, are you sure? My baby gotta have that forehead, right? You can’t lose that.”
Now, Rihanna is thrilled to be expecting and experiencing this love. “You just hope. I hope that I can have kids one day, and I hope I can have them in love, and I hope that I can be a part of a family that breaks generational curses and moves forward, doing new things and raising our kids better than we’ve been raised. And all the beautiful things – it’s happening, and I can’t believe it.” Furthermore, if Rihanna is indeed pregnant, she has made it clear she won’t stop at just one child. She has expressed her desire for a large family, drawing inspiration from her own upbringing in a big family.
In a March 2020 interview with British Vogue, Rihanna outlined her 10-year plan, which she hoped would include expanding her family to possibly four children. At the time, her relationship with ASAP Rocky had not been confirmed. When asked if she would consider single motherhood, Rihanna affirmed that she was open to raising her children solo if necessary. Later, in a follow-up interview with British Vogue in February 2023, she reiterated her desire for more children, emphasizing that she is open to whatever God has in store for her, whether it be girls, boys, or anything else.
Regarding the topic of expanding their family, both R and ASAP are open to having more babies without any issues. Additionally, ASAP is interested in collaborating with Rihanna to have a daughter, fulfilling their desire for a baby girl. However, if Rihanna is indeed pregnant again, it seems unlikely that the long-awaited album will be released anytime soon. Some speculate that Rihanna has not fully recovered from her recent pregnancy, questioning assumptions about her current physical state. Despite rumors, others argue that Rihanna couldn’t be pregnant due to her public behavior, like smoking and drinking in Paris on Valentine’s Day. Given Rihanna’s usual lifestyle, it’s doubtful she would engage in such behaviors if pregnant.
What are your thoughts? Is Rihanna truly expecting her third child, or is her appearance simply the result of her previous pregnancy? Additionally, how do you feel about R and ASAP’s desire for a baby girl? Share your opinions in the comments below.
