The Met Gala is where you see a lot of people come and stand on the red carpet. There are always going to be some who make more noise than others, and this year, Rihanna made quite a statement.
In the past, we have seen Rihanna many times on the red carpet, and she typically turns heads, either for the good or the bad. This year, the mother of two and singer was back on the Met Gala steps, and this time she made quite a statement.
She was standing there with her partner, rapper A$AP Rocky, and they were about to enjoy the biggest night of the year. She shares two children with her partner, and she was wearing a gray two-piece that revealed she was going to be having a third.
The most noticeable part of the outfit was the baby bump that was protruding from under the material. The couple then revealed that they were expecting a third child, and it was confirmed by a close source.
A Met Gala co-chair confirm the following in an interview: “Rihanna’s outfit tonight is … I don’t know, whatever, just don’t cover her baby hump, you dig?”
Rocky and Rihanna have been together since 2020, and they were on the red carpet in 2023 when she was pregnant with their second child, Riot. Last year, she spoke about the romance that was moving forward with the record producer, saying that they have many of the same hobbies and a good eye for detail.
She said: “We saw fashion the same. We saw creative the same. We ended up in the same circles a lot. And past that, when we grew up, we ended up supporting each other’s brands and products and creative all the time. I would wear his s**t, he would show up to my launches.
“But it wasn’t until the end of 2019 [that our relationship became romantic].”
Fans were stunned by the appearance of the baby bump, but it was to be expected, since they are always going to grab some attention on the red carpet. Many of her fans were commenting about the way that she looked and how it seemed as if she had been pregnant for years.
