The couple first confirmed Rihanna’s pregnancy at the 2025 Met Gala, where the singer made headlines by showing off her baby bump in a stunning gown.
In a recent interview, Rocky revealed that they had been hoping for a daughter. “It’s a girl. I really do. We’re praying for a girl,” he told Billboard.
Rihanna and Rocky are already parents to two sons, RZA and Riot Rose, both of whose names also follow the family tradition of starting with the letter “R.” With the arrival of Rocki, the trio now carries on the name pattern.
The couple’s bond goes way back. They first performed together in 2012 at the MTV Video Music Awards, delivering their hit “Cockiness.” Though they were friends for a long time, their friendship eventually blossomed into romance.
In 2022, Rihanna and Rocky announced that they were expecting their first child, and in 2023, they revealed her second pregnancy during the Super Bowl halftime show.
