Rihanna welcomes baby girl, expands her R-family tradition

The little one, named Rocki Irish Mayers, was born on September 13, 2025, a nod to her father A$AP Rocky’s stage name with just a letter’s twist. 

Rihanna shared the joyful news on her official X account, posting a tender photo of herself cradling her daughter. 

The announcement was paired with a heartwarming image of ribbon-laced pink satin boxing delicately placed against a cream background. 

The picture radiated innocence and new beginnings, sparking over a million reactions within hours.

The birth comes just months after Rihanna stole the spotlight at the 2025 Met Gala, where she graced the blue carpet in a dramatic midnight-blue gown that proudly highlighted her baby bump.

Though she walked the red carpet solo, she was joined inside the Metropolitan Museum of Art by her longtime partner, A$AP Rocky.

 The power couple already shares two sons: RZA, born in 2022, and Riot, born in 2023.

True to form, Rihanna has made each of her pregnancy announcements unforgettable. 

Fans still recall her jaw-dropping reveal at the 2023 Super Bowl Halftime Show, when she unveiled her second pregnancy in a bold red outfit, teasing beforehand that she’d be “bringing someone out” on stage.

Meanwhile, Rocky seems to be curating a unique family legacy of his own, ensuring that each child’s name starts with an “R,” playfully aligning their identities with his own. 

With RZA, Riot, and now Rocki, the couple’s children share not only famous parents but also a stylishly thought-out naming tradition.
