Shakira Blows Up Rihanna’s Pregnancy Surprise at Met Gala!
At the Met Gala on Monday night, Shakira found herself blushing unintentionally when she inadvertently revealed Rihanna’s pregnancy news before she had even arrived.
As a lifestyle connoisseur, I must share an exciting moment: I recently confirmed my pregnancy at a recent event by gracefully displaying my expanding belly under a stylish ensemble comprising of a pinstripe skirt, a form-fitting grey top, a tie, and a cropped blazer. The ‘Umbrella’ hitmaker in me couldn’t help but feel the rhythm of motherhood pulsating through me!
Yet, Shakira accidentally revealed information beforehand, slipping up in an interview with NBC News during her live appearance.
Inquired about whom she was eagerly anticipating meeting at the gathering, Shakira expressed her excitement: “Rihanna is who I can’t wait to meet! I really want to see her. And it turns out I just found out some news about it.
Noticing that the interviewer might have been unclear about her reference, Shakira clarified: ‘She is expecting a baby!’
Afterward, she promptly understood her mistake when she covered her face with her hands and blurted out: “Didn’t I just say something I shouldn’t have?

Left red-faced she awkwardly laughed before walking away down the carpet.
Previously, Rihanna was spotted sporting a snug grey blouse and a hip-hugging skirt, which highlighted her growing baby belly, as she exited the Carlyle Hotel prior to an evening function.
It appears Shakira thought that Rihanna’s news was already well-known among many, so when she eventually arrived on the red carpet as the final star at 10 pm, it wouldn’t come as a significant surprise.
As a die-hard admirer, I can’t help but be thrilled by the news that the incredible Rihanna is set to welcome her third little miracle, joining her two precious bundles of joy – RZA, who will be turning three in no time, and Riot Rose, our lively 21-month-old charmer. I can hardly contain my excitement for this wonderful family as they expand their love!
In December 2023, when she spoke with E! News, the singer hinted at her desire for a third child. Now, it seems that baby number three is on the way, as she recently announced her pregnancy.
Rihanna stated that so far she has only had daughters, but she’s hoping to have a son in the future, which would make it 75% likely. So, she’ll be keeping her hopes up.
Additionally, she had mentioned earlier that her aspiration was to raise children similarly to how Teresa Giudice does on The Real Housewives of New Jersey.
The Grammy-winning artist expressed to Elle that she admires ‘Teresa from Jersey’ as she takes her children’s upbringing very seriously.



‘She will fight for those little girls,’ Rihanna stated.
I can’t help but identify strongly with her fierce protective instincts regarding her children. It mirrors the kind of mother I aspire to be – a dedicated and relentless defender. Bring up my kids in conversation, and our friendship is instantly on the line.
Previously, there were rumors that Rihanna might be pregnant due to pictures where she hid her stomach in photos taken last month while she was out in public.
For their mother-son outing following her decision to postpone her summer comeback concerts, she opted for a casual look in an oversized grey T-shirt, loose jeans, and comfortable slip-on sneakers, accessorizing with red-tinted shades.
Or:
After cancelling her planned summer concerts and making plans for a mother-son outing instead, she chose comfort over style, donning an oversized grey T-shirt, baggy jeans, chunky slip-on sneakers, and red-tinted sunglasses.
Both versions convey the same information in easy-to-understand language.
Spectators on X additionally expressed speculation, with some commenting, “It seems like you’re expecting another child,” and others adding, “I get a strong sense of maternity from you.
For more than four years, the musician known as Rakim Athelaston Mayers (also recognized as a rapper) and the vocalist of Diamonds have been in a romantic relationship. They had been close friends for almost a decade prior to their relationship’s development.
They welcomed their first child together in 2022 and their second in 2023.
In late June, just under a year before she was about to welcome her youngest baby, there were whispers of another potential pregnancy as she chose not to attend the Met Gala.



She shut down the speculation at the time but revealed that she wants to have more children.
When Entertainment Tonight inquired about potential growth in her family with Rocky, she replied, “Well, I certainly hope so.
She also previously shared that she hopes to have a baby girl to join her family one day.
In an interview with Interview Magazine in April 2024, she mentioned that while she isn’t sure about God’s plans, she’d prefer to have more than two children. She expressed a desire for a girl, but if she ended up having another boy, she would accept it happily.
