Once again, Rihanna proved that she is the moment with baby no. 3 on the way!
With over 1 million tweets and counting within hours of the Met Gala red carpet, all eyes were on the Barbadian billionaire, and she did not disappoint. The fashion icon and music mogul confirmed she’s expecting baby number three in true Rihanna fashion: no announcement, no press release, just a jaw-dropping baby bump reveal in front of the entire fashion world.
Wearing a custom Marc Jacobs look that screamed edgy elegance, Rihanna floated down the blue floral carpet at the Met Gala 2025, her bump peeking out under a grey bustier and cropped black jacket. Her all-black outfit was anything but understated. Add a dramatic hat, red polka-dot scarf, and monochrome heels, and you’ve got a look destined for the history books and pregnancy announcement Pinterest boards.
And yes, the internet lost its collective mind.
The 37-year-old star, who already shares sons RZA and Riot with longtime partner A$AP Rocky, had been dodging pregnancy rumors for weeks. But at the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s most anticipated event, she let her bump do all the talking. At one point, she tenderly cradled her stomach as the cameras flashed.
Interestingly, while both Rihanna and Rocky attended the event, they didn’t pose together on the carpet. But when reporters caught up with the rapper and new Met Gala co-host, he couldn’t hide his pride.
“It is time to just show the people what we were cooking up,” he quipped, sending fans into another social media spiral. He followed up with a heartfelt, “Thank you, thank you, thank you. I’m glad everybody’s happy for us because we’re definitely happy.”
And we’re definitely screaming.
This year’s Met Gala theme, “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” marked the first time in over 20 years that menswear took center stage. And Rihanna, naturally, flipped that theme on its head. In a suit-inspired ensemble reimagined for maternity glam, she honored the theme and stole the night.
Meanwhile, A$AP Rocky rocked a bespoke suit of his own design, further cementing the couple’s place as one of fashion’s most innovative power duos, even if they didn’t pose together this time.
From music to makeup to motherhood, Rihanna keeps rewriting the rules. And now, with baby number three on the way, she’s taking the world along for yet another iconic ride.
