An exclusive source told PEOPLE that Rihanna and A$AP Rocky are excited to grow their family after the pop icon’s pregnancy announcement at the Met Gala 2025. Reportedly, the singer has been in “baggy clothes for months,” mastering a chic disguise to hide her baby bump. She got the public playing detective during the process, letting them decipher the clues behind her oversized outfits over the months.
According to PEOPLE’s source, “Rihanna’s always gone with the flow, but this time around, she joked early on that it would be hard to hide the baby bump.” Adding that the musician has been wearing “baggy clothes for months,” they revealed how she swapped her body-hugging couture for looser clothes lately. In doing so, she not only succeeded in concealing her pregnancy but also used the fashion tactic to her advantage.
The insider claimed the star couple was “thrilled to be growing their family and they can’t wait to give their boys another sibling.” According to the insider, Rihanna and Rocky “wanted to have their children close together in age, so that they could grow up together and share a close bond.” While the singer works on her ninth studio album, she told Entertainment Tonight at the Met Gala, “I’m shockingly feeling okay and not too overwhelmed at the moment. I mean, at first, it was kinda like, ‘Ah!’ And I’m tired, but then I’m excited.”
Detailing the pregnancy journey, the insider reported, “They were hoping for another baby,” suggesting that Rihanna and Rocky were not done having kids. Mastering her career and pregnancy announcement simultaneously, the star proved that she was all about taking things at her own pace.
