“This isn’t the Oscars, honey! We’re not changing for the after party!”
Pop star Rihanna and her partner, rapper A$AP Rocky have big news to share.
The couple have announced the arrival of their third child and it is everything they hoped for.
On Wednesday, September 24, Rihanna took to Instagram to share the first photo of their third child, revealing both the gender and the name they chose for their little one.
The first image showed the singer holding their baby girl who was dressed fully in pink. "Rocki Irish Mayers," Rihanna captioned the post, revealing her name. "Sept. 13, 2025," she continued, further revealing their baby girl's birthdate.
In a new interview with Elle, published on September 23, A$AP revealed his hope for a baby girl. The couple is also parents to two sons, RZA, 3, and Riot, 2.
I hope it’s a girl,” Rocky said. “I really do. We’re praying for a girl. I feel like it’s going to be a girl. This pregnancy is so different from the other two—you can tell from the experience. I hope it’s a baby girl, man. I need that.”
Back in 2022, a source exclusively told Life & Style that Rihanna also shared a hope of having a daughter one day, saying "a little sister for her son would be perfect."
The second photo shared by Rihanna depicted two tiny boxing gloves seemingly sharing the inspiration behind their daughter's name.
Fans quickly shared their congratulatory messages in the comment section, calling Rocki a "beautiful doll."
"Congratulations sis! You finally got your mini-me," another comment read. "What a blessing! I know she is surrounded by so much love."
