Rihanna spotted shopping for children's clothes, fueling speculation about baby's gender
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Rihanna, who is currently pregnant with her second child, dropped a possible hint regarding the gender of her unborn baby during a shopping trip in LA. The 35-year-old singer, who is already a mother to an 11-month-old son with her partner A$AP Rocky, was spotted browsing a pastel pink knitted romper, which suggests that she may be expecting a girl. The expectant star looked effortlessly stylish in a black maxi dress paired with a chic coat and sunglasses as she perused the items in the store. Her hair was styled in an elegant updo, and she accessorized with shimmering hoop earrings.
While shopping, Rihanna was seen buying a baby-sized orange ruffle dress, further indicating that she may be having a girl. Despite her massive net worth of $1.7B, the hitmaker chose to shop for her baby gear at Target, a popular and affordable department store. Fans were excited to catch a glimpse of the mom-to-be as she picked up onesies and socks for her soon-to-be little one. The purchase of a baby dress was not the only thing noticed by her admirers when she went shopping, as some boys' items were also added to her cart. As the due date draws closer, fans have been wondering about the gender of the baby, but neither she nor the father-to-be, A$AP Rocky, have made any official announcements regarding their baby's sex.

Rihanna's pregnancy cravings and habits revealed
During a 2022 interview with Insider, it was revealed that Rihanna frequents a certain establishment multiple times a week.
