Rihanna, A$AP Rocky Spark Marriage Speculation Following Elle Interview
In a candid Elle profile, Rocky hints at being a husband as fans debate whether the couple is secretly married while Rihanna awaits their third child.
Rihanna and A$AP Rocky are drawing renewed attention after a new Elle magazine interview sparked a wave of fan speculation about whether they are secretly married. The couple, who have been together for five years, share two sons—RZA, 3, and Riot, 2—and Rihanna is expecting their third child. In the cover story, Rocky hints at a possible marriage while keeping the details private.
Asked by journalist Clover Hope whether he looks forward to becoming a husband, the Harlem-born rapper responded with a playful line, “How you know I’m not already a husband?” He stopped short of confirming nuptials, adding only that he isn’t going to reveal any such information. The remarks appear in Rocky’s profile in Elle, where he also reflects on his journey from a rock-star lifestyle to family life.
Rocky’s quip comes as Rihanna and Rocky’s relationship continues under close public scrutiny, with fans parsing every public appearance and social-media post for clues. The couple’s family life has been a frequent source of adoration for fans, especially as Rihanna advances in her pregnancy. In the same interview, Rocky said he hopes their third child will be a girl, telling Hope that there is a strong possibility of a daughter: “I hope it’s a girl. I really do. We’re praying for a girl. Our first time, we wanted to know the sex of the baby. The second time, we didn’t want to know. Third time, we don’t want to know until, you know.” He added, “I feel like it’s going to be a girl. This pregnancy is so different from the other two. You can tell from the experience. I hope it’s a baby girl, man. I need that.”
Fans on social media weighed in with mixed views about whether Rihanna and Rocky have quietly married. Some posts argued that the couple is not married and values their freedom, while others suggested that they might be keeping such matters private. One user, @Adore_Shay, noted that there are reasons celebrities keep certain details to themselves, even when they have children together, adding that the couple’s privacy could be intentional rather than a sign of non-marriage.
The question of marriage has lingered since 2022, when the couple teased the idea in Rocky’s D.M.B. music video. Rihanna wore a blood-red wedding dress and veil while Rocky flashed gold grills reading “Marry Me,” and she wore matching grills that read “I do.” The track, an ode to Rihanna, includes lines that highlight their bond, including references to Rihanna as his “angel” and “goddess.” The video remains a cultural marker in the ongoing conversation about their relationship and privacy.
In the Elle profile, Rocky also reflected on how his outlook has shifted away from a touring, public-facing rock-star lifestyle toward family life. “There’s no longevity in that old lifestyle,” he said. “What’s really fly is raising a family, bro, and loving them. Being there.” The comments frame the couple’s public persona—glamour and milestones on the surface, but with a private life that has drawn steady speculation from fans and observers.
Rihanna and Rocky have not publicly confirmed whether they are married. Representatives for both declined to comment on the marriage question. The couple remains in the spotlight for their music, business ventures, and growing family as they navigate public interest and private life during Rihanna’s pregnancy.
