Rihanna has expanded her family once again. The global music icon revealed on Instagram that she and partner A$AP Rocky have welcomed a daughter, born on September 13.
Sharing the happy news with her 150 million followers, Rihanna posted a tender photo of herself holding the newborn, alongside a pair of tiny pink boxing gloves. The couple named their baby girl Rocki Irish Mayers, a nod to her father’s stage name with a subtle twist.
The announcement quickly set social media abuzz, with fans flooding the post with congratulations; over 5 million likes poured in within just two hours.
This marks the couple’s third child together. Rihanna and Rocky are already parents to two boys, Riot and RZA. The singer memorably unveiled her pregnancy at the Met Gala earlier this year, where she joked to reporters: “It is time to just show the people what we were cooking up.”
It’s not the first time the superstar has made headlines with a high-profile pregnancy reveal. In 2023, she stunned audiences by debuting her baby bump during the Super Bowl halftime show while performing in a striking red bodysuit.
The 37-year-old, born Robyn Fenty, continues to balance family with her career as a business mogul. Fans eagerly await new music as it’s been nearly a decade since her last album Anti. She has built an empire with ventures like Fenty Beauty and her lingerie line, boosting her fortune to billionaire status according to Forbes.
Earlier this year, the couple also drew attention during A$AP Rocky’s trial, in which he was acquitted of gun charges. Rihanna attended court with their two sons to support him. The joyful news of Rocki’s arrival comes shortly after the singer celebrated a personal milestone—20 years since the release of her debut album.
