Rihanna welcomes third child Rocki Irish Mayers with A$AP Rocky
Rihanna and A$AP Rocky greet a daughter, Rocki Irish Mayers, born Sept. 13 in Los Angeles; first daughter for the couple who also share two sons
Rihanna has welcomed her third child with partner A$AP Rocky—a daughter named Rocki Irish Mayers, born Sept. 13 at a Los Angeles hospital. The singer announced the birth on Instagram on Sept. 24, sharing the first photo of the newborn swaddled in pink.
Rihanna and Rocky are already parents to two sons, RZA, 3, and Riot, 2. The couple began dating in 2019 and welcomed RZA in May 2022; Riot followed in August 2023. The pair publicly teased a third child during Rihanna's Met Gala appearance in May 2025, when she displayed her baby bump and then continued with public engagements in the months that followed.
Rocky has indicated in interviews that he hoped for a girl; in June 2025 he told Entertainment Tonight that he expected the baby would be a daughter. The middle name Irish is described in reports as a tribute to Rihanna's late father Ronald Fenty and his Irish heritage.
In May 2025, Rihanna publicly confirmed her pregnancy at the Met Gala, a moment that set the stage for the September arrival. The birth announcement also included a second image in the couple's posts, showing pink satin booties, underscoring the family’s new addition. The couple’s public remarks about family life have often centered on balancing motherhood with high-profile careers, a theme Rihanna has discussed in interviews over the years.
This birth adds to Rihanna's prominence in music, fashion, and pop culture as she expands her family with A$AP Rocky, a partnership that has been closely followed by fans and media since they first publicized their relationship in 2019.
