The singer debuted her baby bump in New York City over the weekend while on a stroll with boyfriend A$AP Rocky.
The intimate photos were snapped in Harlem, where A$AP Rocky grew up, and show the two in a loving light. In the photos, the singer and fashion mogul can be seen wearing a long pink jacket unbuttoned to reveal her bump adorned in a gold cross with colorful jewels. The couple can be seen holding hands as A$AP Rocky kisses Rihanna on the forehead.
The couple began dating shortly after Rihanna’s split from her boyfriend of three years, billionaire Hassan Jameel in 2020. However, they have been friends for much longer. They collaborated in 2012 on a remix of Rihanna’s “Cockiness (Love It),” and stayed in contact. A$AP Rocky was also featured in her Fenty Skin campaign.
Shortly after her breakup with Jameel, the Barbados native opened up about wanting to have children whether or not she was in a relationship.
