For ten years, they maintained a solid friendship that became a relationship back in 2021. Now, so much time later, the couple is in luck after bringing their second child into the world.

As reported by the North American portal TMZ, the artist behind themes such as Diamonds, Umbrella or Russian Roulette gave birth on August 3. Not many details have been disclosed in this regard in recent weeks, except for a particularity shared by the American media. As indicated, the name of the newborn, a boy, would begin with the letter "R", although it has not been fully revealed.

However, the couple has other plans for the first months of their second child's life. According to a source close to the couple in statements to Entertainment Tonight, the parents would like to stay away from the spotlight, raising the child in absolute privacy.

The first new member of the family unit was not introduced in society until it celebrated his first birthday.

In the same way, Rihanna will maintain her style and the tendency to constantly modify her looks, something that made her go viral during her pregnancy due to the multiple aspects with which she showed off her belly. “When I found out she was pregnant, I thought, 'There's no way I'm going to go shopping in a maternity section.' Sorry; it's so much fun to dress up. I am not going to let that part disappear because my body is changing, ”she said in an interview with Vogue.
