Is Rihanna having a boy or a girl? PREGNANT Riri sports baby bump with beau A$AP Rocky

'So happy for you mama, conquered the world already. Given so much. Nothing left to prove. You deserve your own little gift now,' Nicki Minaj said

Billionaire singer and entrepreneur Rihanna broke the Internet on January 31, 2022, with the news about her pregnancy. The 33-year-old founder of Fenty Beauty happily posed with her baby bump while taking a romantic stroll with boyfriend A$AP Rocky. Rumors about Rihanna's pregnancy were doing the rounds for quite a while — especially after eagle-eyed fans spotted a little bulge in her dress when she went to Barbados to accept the 'National Hero' honor. However, the rumors died down a bit after Riri shared a bunch of photos in her Savage X Fenty lingerie, where she appeared to have a taut belly. Now it is clear that the photoshoot was done months ahead of her pregnancy.

The latest photos featuring her baby bump were taken by celebrity photographer Miles Diggs aka Diggzy and prove that the rumors were true indeed. Taken in New York City, the photographs show Rihanna looking resplendent in a hot pink trench coat with a very visible baby bump. She paired it with ripped boyfriend jeans and accessorized it with a long pearl chain and a bejeweled cross. Meanwhile, her rapper boyfriend A$AP Rocky kept it casual with a denim hoodie, black leather pants, and a black beanie. The couple has been together since the summer of 2021 and is believed to be going stronger than ever.

While this is the first pregnancy for Rihanna, it will also be A$AP Rocky's first child. Riri has not issued any statement on her pregnancy, but the photos clearly show that she is in the advanced stage. We are yet to know when the baby is due or whether it would be a boy or a girl, as the parents-to-be have been quite tight-lipped about it. 

A$AP Rocky seems the happiest and proudest father-to-be as the photos show him placing a tender kiss on his baby mama's forehead. In another close-up snap of Riri's baby bump, A$AP Rocky's hand can be seen caressing her belly with utmost love. The couple is being showered to congratulatory messages and blessings from other celebrities and millions of fans worldwide. 

Socialite Paris Hilton called Rihanna an amazing mother as she tweeted, "Congratulations Queen! So exciting! So happy for you @Rihanna! You look so beautiful and are going to be an amazing mother."

Singer Nicki Minaj sent an emotional note to Rihanna saying, "So happy for you mama, conquered the world already. Given so much. Nothing left to prove. You deserve your own little gift now. Different level of joy that money can't buy."

A enthusiastic fan noted, "As someone who has loved and admired Rihanna since the beginning of her career it brings me joy to see her get her dream. This is LITERALLY what she always stated she wanted. In every interview. And she got it. She deserves every ounce of happiness and love."

"Congratulations to my FAVE, Rihanna on her pregnancy. So happy for you queen," singer Enisa Nikaj tweeted.
