Not sure if you’ve been keeping up with this It Couple (of course you have), but in the event you somehow haven't, just know that a lot has gone down between A$AP Rocky and Rihanna lately. Which means you should probably spend today working at the job you get paid to do deep-diving into their relationship. Warning: It is filled with MOMENTS, so please prepare yourself. Let’s get started with the most recent updates first, shall we?

December 1, 2025

Rihanna gushes about Rocky on the carpet, saying she's "so proud of him." Truly, my heart!

October 29, 2025

Rocky fuels wedding speculation, telling Perfect Magazine "Being a father and a partner and a loving husband in my family is what makes me really, really happy. That’s what honestly does get me going: being able to express myself creatively, being able to be a family man and being able to be an artisan."

September 24, 2025

Baby #3 is born!!! Rihanna hops on IG to share that she and Rocky had welcomed their third child together.

July 8, 2025

Rihanna teased her baby's name to Entertainment Tonight, saying "It’s always going to be an R name. That’s the one thing me and Rocky don’t fight over."

July 6, 2025

A source tells People that "Rihanna and Rocky couldn’t be more thrilled to be growing their family again with baby number three. They’ve really embraced this chapter and their bond has only deepened since becoming parents."

The source adds that Rocky "has been incredibly attentive and nurturing throughout this pregnancy" and is "so hands on with RZA and Riot, changing diapers, doing bedtime routines, and keeping them entertained so Rihanna can rest. He’s completely tuned into her needs."

But wait, there's more cuteness: "He’s always thinking of ways to show up for Rihanna, whether it’s bringing her late night cravings when she’s in the mood or creating little ways for her to unwind. He’ll run her baths, massage her feet and take care of things around the house so she doesn’t have to lift a finger. This pregnancy feels especially meaningful because they’ve grown so much together as partners and parents. Rocky is Rihanna’s biggest cheerleader. He always makes her laugh, he keeps things light and full of love. They both prioritize their family time above everything and it’s clear this is what matters most to them."

...and Rocky rightfully gushes about the Fenty Beauty founder on the red carpet, telling People that Rihanna has “good taste” and dresses their kids, RZA and Riot Rose, with her own selects. “That’s their mother by herself,” he says. “I don’t have any contribution to when my sons get dressed.”

The “Sundress” hitmaker adds, “Sometimes she dresses them like me with kilts and all of that, but that's all their moms, man. She got good style and taste.” When it comes to what he wants his sons to gain from their relationship, he explains, “I hope they take away my originality and confidence. It’s in their blood and their genes, no pun intended.”
