Rihanna and A$AP Rocky arrived at the Met Gala 2025 and instantly captured attention.
Rihanna debuts new baby bump at Met Gala 2025
While Rocky was already one of the evening’s co-chairs, the spotlight shifted dramatically when Rihanna revealed she is expecting their third child.
Before even stepping onto the red carpet, Rihanna was already the talk of the event.
She stepped out of The Carlyle Hotel in a grey pencil skirt and a matching quarter-zip sweater. With a deliberate gesture, she lifted the sweater to reveal her baby bump, confirming speculation that had been building in the days leading up to the event.
A$AP Rocky confirmed the news during a red carpet interview, telling reporter:
“It feels amazing, you know… It’s time that we show the people what we was cooking up. And I’m glad everybody’s happy for us ’cause we definitely happy, you know.”
The couple are already parents to two boys. Their eldest, RZA Athelston Mayers, is three years old, and their second child, Riot Rose Mayers, is now one. The new pregnancy marks the latest chapter in a relationship that fans frequently describe as aspirational.
The timing of this joyful announcement follows a challenging period for A$AP Rocky. In February 2025, he was found not guilty in a high-profile trial that could have resulted in a prison sentence of up to 24 years.
Rocky had been charged with two counts of assault with a semiautomatic firearm, stemming from an incident in 2021 involving former friend Terell Ephron, also known as A$AP Relli.
The case alleged that Rocky fired two shots outside a Hollywood hotel following a personal dispute. However, Rocky’s legal team argued that the firearm was a prop used for a music video and claimed the accusations were part of a $30 million extortion attempt.
The jury sided with the defence, clearing him of all charges.
With the legal case now behind him and a new child on the way, 2025 has transformed from a year of uncertainty to one of personal milestones and public celebration for the couple.
At the Met Gala, the couple’s happiness was unmistakable, and Rihanna’s reveal added a deeply personal moment to a night already known for its spectacle and glamour.
