It’s official, besties — the Queen of BadGal energy herself, Rihanna, just became a mom for the third time, and this time she’s added a baby girl to her already iconic little crew with A$AP Rocky. The superstar couple welcomed their daughter, adorably named Rocki Irish Mayers, on September 13, 2025, at a hospital in Los Angeles. Yes, the “R” tradition continues — and we are obsessed.
Rihanna broke the news on Instagram with a perfectly RiRi-esque post: a soft-focus photo cradling her newborn, tiny pink booties in the background, and the caption simply reading, “Rocki Irish Mayers 💖 Sept. 13, 2025.” Chic, understated, but still legendary. This marks baby number three for the couple, who are already proud parents to two boys — RZA Athelston, born in May 2022, and Riot Rose, born in August 2023. And now, with Rocki joining the squad, the Fenty fam is officially a party of five.
Their journey to this moment is basically a love story written by the pop culture gods. Rihanna and Rocky’s friendship goes way back — they first connected over a decade ago when he opened for her “Diamonds” World Tour and even starred in one of her campaigns. But the friendship leveled up in 2020 when they officially started dating, and things got serious quickly. By late 2021, they were inseparable on red carpets and fashion week front rows, and by May 2022, their first son RZA had arrived. Just a year later, Riot made his debut, and fans started calling them “Hollywood’s coolest parents.” Now, with baby number three in the mix, that title is pretty much cemented.
And of course, Rihanna knows how to make a baby announcement feel like an event. She revealed her third pregnancy earlier this year in peak RiRi fashion — by gliding down the Met Gala red carpet in a sculptural white gown with a very visible bump. No captions, no press releases — just a mic-drop maternity moment. Fans immediately began speculating whether she was expecting a girl this time, especially after she was spotted shopping for pink baby clothes in Paris this summer. Rocky played along with the suspense, even joking in interviews about naming the baby “Denzel” just to throw everyone off.
What’s especially sweet is how intentional they’ve been about building their little family. All three of their children’s names start with “R” — RZA, Riot, and Rocki — a nod to Rocky’s own name, Rakim, and maybe even a subtle branding move (because you know they’re going to run the world as a sibling super-squad one day). RZA is already a mini fashion icon in his own right, Riot has been photographed in custom baby-sized Bottega, and something tells us Rocki will debut in couture before she can crawl.
This new chapter also silences some of the constant chatter around the couple. Despite persistent marriage rumors — and Rocky’s recent cheeky comment, “How do you know I’m not already a husband?” — they’ve kept their relationship mostly private and deeply grounded. Their focus, it seems, is on raising their kids in a bubble of love, music, and matching designer fits.
So what’s next? Probably an avalanche of sibling selfies, fashion-week baby cameos, and a whole new level of adorable chaos. Rihanna once said motherhood made her feel like “the strongest version” of herself — and with three kids under three, she’s clearly thriving in that energy.
Congrats to Rihanna and A$AP Rocky — music royalty, fashion icons, and now proud parents of three. Welcome to the world, Rocki Irish Mayers. You’re already cooler than all of us. 👑💕
