Rihanna Steals the Show: Third Pregnancy Unveiled at Met Gala
No one does a red carpet reveal like Rihanna. Just when you thought you’d seen all her tricks, she spun the fashion world on its head again at the 2025 Met Gala. Stepping onto the scene in New York, she didn’t just bring style—she brought news, strutting her way into headlines by confirming she’s pregnant with her third child by rapper A$AP Rocky.
Hours before the official red carpet, fans and paparazzi alike were already talking about Rihanna’s look at the Carlyle Hotel. She wore a sharp, fitted two-piece set from Miu Miu, unmistakably showing off her baby bump. But that was just the opening act. For the big event at the Metropolitan Museum, she switched things up to a custom Marc Jacobs suit-inspired outfit. The ensemble was pure Rihanna—gray corseted bodysuit, sharply cut jacket used as a bustle, chunky ankle-chain pumps, and vintage Cartier sprinkled all over. The look was futuristic yet classic, playful but still powerful, and it immediately set the night abuzz.
A$AP Rocky was no mere accessory in this scene. As one of the event’s co-chairs, he had a spotlight of his own. He showed up in a custom jacket designed by AWGE, inspired by the classic Marmot outerwear worn by Harlem locals decades ago. Rocky looked just as over-the-top cool as his partner. But the real highlight was his sheer excitement. When asked about their news, he beamed: “It feels amazing... we show the people what we was cooking up.” The couple radiated joy and teamwork, clearly thrilled to share this new chapter publicly.
Making History at Fashion’s Biggest Stage
For fans keeping track, this isn’t the first time Rihanna’s used the Met Gala to rewrite the rules. Back in 2023, she revealed her second pregnancy in unforgettable fashion—literally. Now, two years later, she’s turned a high-fashion event into her own personal announcement stage once more. With the 2025 Gala’s theme, ‘Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,’ she and Rocky both leaned into the brief, showing off not only their personal style but also a celebration of Black designers and culture.
The reveal wasn’t just a celebrity stunt. It added extra sparkle to a night already filled with glamour. Rihanna and Rocky’s presence—and her stomach—quickly overshadowed even the wildest outfits and performances of the evening. Event organizers might plan for fashion history, but sometimes the best moments come from real-life surprises.
The pair is already well-practiced in parenthood, raising sons RZA (2) and Riot (1). As for baby number three, they haven’t shared any details about the due date or gender. It’s classic Rihanna: give the world just enough, keep the rest a mystery, and always leave us wanting more.
Her Met Gala appearances now go beyond the clothes—each appearance is part fashion moment, part personal milestone. She keeps fans, the fashion world, and the press guessing what’s next with every step. Other stars may come and go, but Rihanna keeps finding new ways to raise the bar at the Met Gala—and this time, she’s doing it for three.
