Rihanna it’s mom again: the 35-year-old pop star secretly gave birth to her second child with boyfriend A$AP Rocky, who was born earlier this month in Los Angeles. Some sources close to the couple have confirmed a tmz extension that the baby was born on August 3: the name has not been revealed, but it is known that it begins with the letter R and that it is a boy.
Rihanna mom for the second time
The couple already has a son, RZA Athelston Mayers, born on May 13, 2022: his name, which perhaps not surprisingly begins with the same letter R, is a tribute to RZA, American rapper and producer and leader of the hip hop collective Wu-Tang Clan. It is therefore not excluded that the second child’s name is also a direct reference to some other big name in music.
The Super Bowl announcement
Rihanna had announced her new pregnancy in February, during her show in front of over 65,000 Super Bowl spectators, and had showing off baby bump to fans that everything they expected except for such a surprise, given that the pop star had just recovered from her previous pregnancy.
Now, however, the fans’ expectation moves to the photos of the new mother-bis: only three months ago, one year after the birth of her firstborn, Rihanna in fact posted the topless photo shoot on Instagram with the bump of her first pregnancy and a caption that left little to the imagination. “In honor of my first pregnancy, embracing motherhood as a top thing, and the magic this body creates,” the singer wrote. Explaining that “He had no idea in there how crazy his mother was». And since one of the tags was #tobecontinued, equally hot new shots related to the second pregnancy are to be expected.
The star and motherhood
In any case, the pop star said that, at least with her first child, she lived well not only motherhood but also the role of mother. Just before the Super Bowl date, on the podcast The Process with Nate Burleson in fact he had said that now “I live for my son” is that now “everything is different, as if life before my son was dark” but with him “it’s more beautiful”.
“When you become a mom,” Rihanna explained, “there’s something that happens, and you feel like you can conquer the world. You can do anything, and the Super Bowl is one of the most visible stages in the world. So, as scary as it gets… there’s something exhilarating about this challenge, and it’s important to me to do it this year. It’s important that my son sees it.” Her sibylline words, which became clearer after the announcement of the new pregnancy right from the stage of the sporting event. Now all that remains is to wait to find out what the name of the second born will be. And for hardcore fans, the wait for the new topless photos could last another year.
