Of course Rihanna would shock the world (again) by announcing her pregnancy on the day of the Met Gala, of which her partner, A$AP Rocky, is a co-chair. She did it once at the Super Bowl, and now, at what's widely considered the Fashion Super Bowl.

Fashionably walking the streets of NYC, Riri made the announcement similar to the way she did with her first child—by having her longtime photographer, Miles Diggs, take a casual snap of her showcasing her baby bump.

The speculation surrounding her possible pregnancy had been going on for quite some time (especially after her latest photo shoot for her Savage X Fenty brand) but the entrepreneur gave us the confirmation we’ve been waiting for in a gray top that showed her bump, and a matching satin skirt. Never one to shy away from high heels, even with child, she opted for a pair of gray pointed-toe pumps, which she paired with matching knee-length socks.

In an interview with Page Six in December 2023, she revealed that her relationship with longtime partner, A$AP Rocky, has strengthened since having their children, Riot Rose and RZA. "I love him differently as a dad. This is major, major...it's a turn on," she told the outlet. "It's just like, wow. What a leader, what a great, patient, loving [person]... and my kids are obsessed with him." And just last month, when speaking with  Interview Magazine, she said that she would like to have a girl.

"As many as God wants me to have," she responded when asked how many children she plans on having. "I don't know what God wants, but I would go for more than two. I would try for my girl. But, of course, if it's another boy, it's another boy.” 

We shall see...either way, we know that kiddo will be in great (and very stylish) hands between their two parents.
