Rihanna is pregnant again and expecting her third child with boyfriend A$AP Rocky, according to several sources.
The music and fashion icon confirmed the news on Monday, May 5, arriving at the MET Gala in a custom Marc Jacobs look that captured this year’s theme of “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style”.

She turned heads on the carpet in a structured bustier, cropped tuxedo jacket, and a pinstriped skirt with a sculptural bustle that showcased her baby bump. She finished the look with two-tone heels, a wide-brimmed hat, and a polka-dotted cravat.
Earlier in the day, Rihanna was spotted leaving The Carlyle Hotel in a tailored gray Miu Miu outfit, subtly hinting at the big news.
A$AP Rocky, who served as a co-chair for this year’s Met Gala, confirmed the pregnancy on the red carpet, expressing his excitement: “It feels amazing, you know. It’s time that we show the people what we was cooking up. And I’m glad everybody’s happy for us ’cause we definitely happy, you know.”
Rihanna’s pregnancy reveal continues her tradition of headline-making announcements. In 2023, she revealed her second pregnancy during the Super Bowl Halftime Show, and in 2022, the Met Gala honored her with a digital statue of her pregnant form displayed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Rihanna and A$AP Rocky are already parents to two sons: RZA, who turns 3 this month, and Riot, who celebrated his first birthday earlier this year.
In a 2024 cover interview with Interview magazine, Rihanna reflected on the idea of expanding her family. “I don’t know what God wants, but I would go for more than two,” she said. “I would try for my girl. But, of course, if it’s another boy, it’s another boy.”
