Rihanna sports a pregnancy support belt as she enjoys family outing with son Riot and A$AP Rocky in Paris

BBG News

On a family day out in Paris on Friday, Rihanna wore a pregnancy-assisting band, alongside her son Riot.

37-year-old songstress is blessed with two sons, one aged three (RZA) and the other 23 months old (Riot), from her partner in hip hop, A$AP Rocky, who’s also 36. At present, she’s expecting their third child together.

She went public with her latest pregnancy at this May’s Met Gala, which Rocky co-chaired.

Rihanna confidently showed off her baby belly in a white tank top, wearing a support belt that enhances posture and alleviates discomfort.

She completed the look with a pair of grey jogging bottoms and black sunglasses.

Simultaneously, Rakim Athelaston Mayers, more commonly known as Rocky, looked relaxed in a blue T-shirt while carrying their youngest child towards a car.

Two days ago, Rihanna made a public appearance, following a seemingly unintentional disclosure about the gender of their third child by Rocky at the world premiere of her movie “Smurfs” in Brussels, Belgium on Sunday.

When Kevin Frazier from ET questioned the 36-year-old rapper about the woman in question, he swiftly affirmed, “Yes, she is, indeed.

In a tight spot, A$AP pointed at a cuddly Smurfette toy and shifted the conversation, saying, “Check this out, you get me?” or “Look here, you understand?

Fans on the official Instagram account of ET were excited, with user @aysenuurkc shouting out: ‘She’s a girl!’

‘He definitely gave it away,’ Instagram user @khadija_sufi laughed.

‘The way he enthusiastically endorsed the film and demonstrated his affection for her was incredibly endearing,’ remarked Instagram user @fashionistaera21. ‘Indeed, that is true devotion from a genuine man.’

Instagram user @hot_cheetos_0001 commented: ‘Put a ring on it. Do it the right way.’

‘He needs to marry her,’ Instagram user @chibiapril0412 agreed. 

Whenever Frazier posed the identical query to Rihanna, she gave a demure grin and answered, “Perhaps it’s a Smurfette… It might as well be a Papa Smurf. Who can truly say?

As for our baby’s name, Riri and her partner agreed that it should start with the letter R – something they don’t argue about.

In response to being inquired about their future family plans, the two-time Grammy nominee humorously remarked, “We might end up like the Wayans clan, if you know what I mean. Yes, I’m saying we’ll keep on sharing love.

For nine Grammys, A$Rocky and their long-term partner have already become parents to two sons within their five-year union. Previously outspoken about her aspirations, she continues to express her desire for a little girl as well.

However, this influential duo, sporting identical tattoos from 1988 as a symbol of their shared birth year, initially crossed paths in the year 2011. It was then that he was invited by her to lend his rapping skills to her track titled “Cockiness (Love It)” for the first time.

On February 18, the jury declared Rocky not guilty for two charges related to the use of a semi-automatic weapon in an assault case that dated back to a 2021 shooting involving his longtime companion, A$AP Relli (Terell Ephron). This ruling spared him from a possible prison sentence lasting up to eight years.

As a child, the founder of AWGE lived in various homeless shelters along with his mother and sister, as their Bajan father had been sent to prison when he was just 12 years old.

Rihanna played the role of Smurfette, also serving as a producer for the movie, which is set to release in both the UK and US on July 18 by Paramount Animation. Additionally, she wrote and recorded an original song titled “Friend Of Mine” for the film’s soundtrack.

Previously, Smurfette was given voice by pop singers who are rivals to a Bajan billionaire, namely Katy Perry and Demi Lovato.

Chris Miller’s animated movie boasts an impressive star-studded cast that includes Nick Offerman, Natasha Lyonne, JP Karliak, Dan Levy, Amy Sedaris, Nick Kroll, James Corden, Octavia Spencer, Hannah Waddingham, Sandra Oh, Alex Winter, Billie Lourd, Xolo Maridueña, Kurt Russell, and John Goodman.

Additionally, Rocky assumed the role of Yung Felony within Spike Lee’s highly praised neo-noir crime drama titled Highest 2 Lowest. The movie will debut in U.S. theaters on August 22, followed by its streaming availability on Apple TV+ starting from September 5.

However, as of now, we don’t have a confirmed release date for the highly anticipated fourth studio album by the New York native, which has been postponed multiple times, titled “Don’t Be Dumb.

Besides her music career, Rihanna is actively involved in expanding her $3B lingerie brand Savage X Fenty. This venture led to the establishment of her $600M cosmetics company, Fenty Beauty, as well as Fenty Skin, Fenty Fragrance, and Fenty Hair.
