Unsurprisingly, the comments section is already flooded with well-wishes, with Chrissy Ford writing, “A Virgo Princess for our Pisces queen,” Linda Evangelista commenting, “God bless,” and many more fans quite simply ~losing it~ over the exciting news.

Rihanna and A$AP Rocky confirmed they were expecting baby No. 3 in May earlier this year, when RiRi walked through New York City with her baby bump on show. The rapper later spoke about the news at the Met Gala, telling reporters, “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.”
The couple already share two sons: RZA, born in 2022, and Riot, born in 2023. In an interview with Vogue back in April 2022, Rihanna reflected on the possibility of having a third child, saying, “I always thought it would be marriage first, then a baby, but who the f*ck says it has to be that way. I’m certainly not gonna let that get in the way of me being a mom.”
Congratulations!
