Rihanna and A$AP Rocky have welcomed their third child, a baby girl named Rocki Irish Mayers, born on September 13, 2025. The singer announced the news via Instagram, sharing a first photo of herself cradling Rocki.
The couple, who have been together since 2020, are already parents to two sons, RZA, who was born in 2022, and Riot Rose, born in 2023. The announcement of their third pregnancy came at the 2025 Met Gala in May, where Rihanna debuted her baby bump in a stylish Marc Jacobs dress.
A$AP Rocky had previously expressed his hope for a baby girl. In an interview with Elle, he mentioned that they were "praying for a girl". He said that this pregnancy felt different from the previous two, leading him to believe they were expecting a daughter.
Hints about the baby's gender and name may have been dropped earlier this year. At the premiere of Smurfs, Rihanna's new movie, Rocky was asked if a Smurfette doll he was holding was "the girl you've been waiting for?" to which he replied, "It is, man, it is". Rihanna also mentioned in July that the baby's name would begin with "R," a tradition she and Rocky planned to continue.
Rihanna's desire for a large family has been known for some time. In 2020, she stated her 10-year plan included having "three or four" children, emphasizing that "the only thing that matters is happiness, that's the only healthy relationship between a parent and a child. That's the only thing that can raise a child truly, is love". A$AP Rocky has also spoken about Rihanna being "the one" since 2021 and expressed that fatherhood was "in my destiny, absolutely".
Fans and celebrities alike have shared their congratulations to the couple on social media. Rihanna and A$AP Rocky have generally kept their family life private, sharing only occasional glimpses of their children online.
