Rihanna and A$AP Rocky welcomed their second child together, according to reports on Monday (Aug. 21, 2023).

TMZ was the first to report the news, and sources told Entertainment Tonight, โ€œRihanna and ASAP will spend the early days of parenthood out of the public eye and wonโ€™t make any immediate plans to debut the new baby.โ€

The new bundle of joy arrives one year and three months after RiRi welcomed the coupleโ€™s first child โ€” a baby boy โ€” in May 2022. RiRi revealed that she was pregnant again during her 2023 Super Bowl halftime show performance in February, surprising fans in a curve-hugging red outfit that showed off her baby bump.

Since then, sheโ€™s been rocking her signature, envy-worthy maternity style on red carpets, social media and beyond. In March, she stepped out with A$AP at the 2023 Academy Awards, baby bump on full display in a shawl and low-waisted skirt. The couple adorably posed for a few photos together, some of which captured the sweet moment Rocky cradled Riโ€™s pregnant belly.

The Barbados-born superstar also appeared at the Met Gala in May, donning a gorgeous all-white Valentino wedding gown with a train, adorned with white roses. โ€œItโ€™s so different from the first one,โ€ she told ET of her second pregnancy. โ€œNo cravings. Tons of nausea. Everythingโ€™s different, but Iโ€™m enjoying it.โ€

โ€œI feel good,โ€ added the โ€œLove on the Brainโ€ singer. โ€œI feel energetic.โ€
