Rihanna and A$AP Rocky secretly welcomed their second child weeks ago

Rihanna and A$AP Rocky (real name Rakim Athelaston Mayers) are parents for the second time. A few days ago rumors were raging about the possibility that the artist had given birth to a girl, but it seems that the baby is actually a boy. As confirmed by the TMZ portal, the couple would have welcomed their second child on August 3 in Los Angeles in the strictest privacy.

A much-desired child and hardly any details are known, just as they were not known about his older brother, RZA Athelston Mayers, who turned one year old last May. What is known is that, as his new adventure partner, his name begins with the letter "R". If everything goes as with his brother, probably no more details of his name will be known for several months.

Once again, the couple has known how to play distracting with the press to keep this long-awaited birth in absolute secrecy and to be able to experience it as a family. Since she announced her pregnancy last February during her Super Bowl show, the singer has been photographed at every stage, reserving the most special moment just for her and her family.

The last time Rihanna was seen in public was last June, when she and A$AP Rocky attended the presentation of the new Pharrell Williams collection for Louis Vuitton.

For Rihanna, being a mother is her priority in recent times. The singer has called the process of motherhood something "legendary", admitting that she hardly remembers anything of her life before becoming a mother. "He is the craziest of all, it doesn't matter," she assured.

Last May, the singer shared through her networks a carousel of photographs belonging to a photographic report made expressly to document her first pregnancy, which included an interesting label: "To be continued." We will see if this new baby is the youngest of the family for a long time, or if the couple of artists decide to continue adding to her offspring.

Rihanna and A$AP Rocky met in 2012, when they first collaborated on the artist's song "Cockiness (Love It"). Both formed a close friendship, which united them professionally for years, but also sentimentally on more than one occasion. The couple gave themselves their first opportunity in 2013, during the artist's world tour, where he acted as the opening act. However, things between them did not get any further, and they continued to be friends.

Until 2019, the year in which Rihanna ended her relationship with Hassan Jameel, and decides to give hers a new chance with Rocky. Neither confirmed anything, but the captured images of both spoke for themselves. In mid-2021 their relationship was confirmed, and from there, everything has been displays of affection. Now, in love like never before, two children and triumphant, they can confirm that life smiles openly at them.
