A$AP Rocky hints he and Rihanna may already be married ahead of baby No. 3

A$AP Rocky hinted that he and Rihanna may already be married in an Elle interview published Tuesday, Sept. 23, quipping, "How you know I’m not already a husband?" and adding, "I’m still not gonna confirm it," as the couple prepare to welcome their third child.

Rihanna, 37, and Rocky, 36, have been together since 2020 and are parents to two sons, RZA, 3, and Riot, 2. Rihanna announced her pregnancy with their third child in May at the Met Gala, and Rocky told Elle that they are "praying for a girl" for the baby.

Rocky also gave a glimpse of their domestic life, saying that when they are home they focus on family and their relationship rather than work. "When you come home, it’s about family. It’s about your relationship. It’s about your household. It ain’t about all that other stuff," he said.

Past hints of marriage have surfaced. In the 2022 D.M.B. video, Rihanna wore a blood-red wedding dress and Rocky flashed gold grills reading "Marry Me," signaling a wedding nod that had fans buzzing.

Rihanna has repeatedly touched on wifehood. In October 2024, she described herself as a wife and homemaker in interviews, saying she loves building new family traditions. Rocky has also used marriage language in interviews, referring to Rihanna as his wife in conversations with Mystery Fashionist earlier in the year.

Despite the chatter, neither has publicly confirmed marital status. They have continued to balance high-profile careers—Rihanna’s music and business empire, and Rocky’s music and fashion ventures—with the responsibilities of parenthood for two active little boys and a forthcoming third child.

As the third child approaches, fans remain attentive, with some urging privacy and others hoping for official confirmation. The couple’s relationship has remained a focal point of culture and entertainment coverage for years, reflecting wide public interest in Rihanna’s personal life as she expands her family and professional footprint.
