Rihanna and A$AP Rocky fuel marriage speculation as third child due

Rihanna and A$AP Rocky have intensified marriage speculation after the rapper dropped a conspicuous hint in a new interview, leaving fans to read between the lines about whether the couple has quietly tied the knot. In a wide-ranging ELLE conversation about family life, Rocky was asked whether he is looking forward to becoming a husband. He replied, 'How you know I'm not already a husband?' and quickly added, 'I'm still not gonna confirm it.' The couple, who have been dating since 2020, are parents to two sons, RZA, three, and Riot, two, and are expecting a third child later this year.

Rihanna’s own remarks about marriage have bubbled up in recent years. In October 2024, she described herself as a wife while discussing homemaking and motherhood, telling E! News that she loves being 'a homemaker' and that motherhood and wifehood 'ish' are part of her identity. The pair's public stances on marriage have remained playful, fueling speculation rather than making a formal declaration. In March, Rocky publicly referred to Rihanna as his wife during an interview with Mystery Fashionist, saying, 'That's my son — she my son. Birds of a feather, flock together. I'm gonna ride till the wheels fall off like she do. That's my dog, that's my n****, that's my b****, that's my wife, that's my everything.' A month later, Rihanna sparked further chatter by debuting a Savage x Fenty bridal lingerie collection and wearing a diamond ring in photos, a moment many fans read as a nod to a wedding ring.

On the topic of family, Rocky told ELLE that he and Rihanna aim to keep work talk out of home life. 'We don't talk too much about work, because we deal with that all day, every day,' he said. '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 s***.' The couple's dynamic is often described as a true partnership, blending Rihanna's fashion and music stardom with Rocky's rap career and producing roles. Their first son, RZA, was born in May 2022; they revealed Rihanna's second pregnancy during the 2023 Super Bowl halftime show, and Riot Rose arrived in August of that year. The new baby is due later this year, and Rocky said he is praying for a girl, noting that the pregnancy feels different from the first two.

Fans have watched the couple transition from collaborators and friends who built a long history before dating to a family unit that dominates pop culture headlines. Neither Rihanna nor Rocky has issued an official marriage certificate or public statement confirming nuptials, but the combination of hints from both parties and a strategic deployment of family-oriented moments has kept the chatter alive. The trio—two boys and a third child on the way—has become central to their recent public appearances and brand ventures, including Rihanna's ongoing fashion lines and Rocky's touring and studio work.

Beyond the romance, the relationship also reflects broader conversations about Black celebrity life, partnerships, and protracted privacy in an era of constant scrutiny. As Rihanna and Rocky prepare for another addition to their household, followers will be watching for any formal confirmation or public celebration of a milestone that has pervaded gossip columns for several years. The couple's story, told in interviews, social posts, and fashion campaigns, continues to captivate fans worldwide as they balance family life with high-profile careers in music, fashion, and entertainment.
