After Rihanna revealed ahead of Monday night’s (May 5) 2025 Met Gala that she was pregnant with her third child, expectant father A$AP Rocky was beaming with pride to reporters on the event’s red carpet.
“It feels amazing, you know?” the rapper said of letting the world in on their good news, as seen in an Associated Press video. “We were tired of holding that, and it was time to show the people what we was cooking up. I’m glad everybody’s happy for us, because we’re definitely happy.”
When asked how it feels to be getting so much love from fans around the reveal, Rocky said: “That’s amazing. Honestly, it’s a blessing nonetheless because you know how some people in other situations at times can be envious of other people, but we’ve been seeing love for the most part. We’re real receptive to that. We appreciate that, you know what I mean? That’s love. Love is love.”
Rihanna and Rocky share two sons together, RZA Athelston Mayers, who turns 3 years old this month, and 1-year-old Riot Rose Mayers. Her first pregnancy reveal was her most low-key, when she and Rocky confirmed they were expecting by taking a stroll through New York City with Rihanna’s bare baby bump on display. Her second pregnancy reveal came on the biggest stage there is, when she headlined the 2023 Super Bowl halftime show wearing an unzipped bodysuit to show off her growing baby bump.
She went major again with No. 3, choosing fashion‘s biggest night, the Met Gala, for the reveal. Following early photos of Rihanna making her way to the Met, she closed out the night’s red carpet just before 10 p.m. ET, wearing a menswear-inspired look topped off with a slouchy, wide-brimmed black hat.
