Finally, the long-winded speculation can finally be put to rest. Rihanna is officially pregnant with her first baby.
Rihanna is pregnant with her first baby
A tremor was felt across social media, on Monday, when an image of the ANTI songstress surfaced on social media. Of course, any picture of the superstar is a viral moment and while we were gushing over her cute encounter with Jay-Z’s daughter, Blue Ivy, a gob-smacking unveiling was on the cards.

No details are available, at this time, on how far Riri is into her pregnancy. However, one thing is for sure, the Work singer has done a stellar job at keeping it a secret, since in the photo that has gone insanely viral, the baby bump is quite visible, suggesting she may be well into her first trimester, at the very least.

ASAP Rocky and Riri, a relationship history
This marks the first time Riri and ASAP Rocky will be welcoming a baby. The couple first appeared in public at the 2019 British Fashion Awards, but as friends.
Then, things got interesting when in January 2020, Rihanna officially broke up billionaire Hassan Jameel.
Almost immediately, Rocky was spotted with the singer at a hotel in New York. Perhaps, he was the much-needed shoulder to cry on?
“Rihanna is reluctant to put a label on it as it’s so soon after Hassan. They’re really enjoying each other’s company and taking things easy as it’s still early days,” a source told The Sun at the time.
Months would tumble on with teasers from the couple, whose affinity for fashion is clearly a love language.
Rocky was the first to publicly claim Riri in May 2021, where he declared his love for the star in a GQ interview.
“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,” he said back then.
