Is Rihanna pregnant? Fact-checking photo
No, Rihanna is not pregnant. The photos shared recently are actually from 2025. The post had a community note added by readers “Rihanna is not pregnant. This photo is from 2025 and this post is a lie intended to gain engagement.”
Grok, too, fact-checked the claims and said “No, Rihanna isn't pregnant. Those LAX photos in the loose hoodie sparked the latest rumor wave, but she shut it down herself on April 15: 'Is the baby in the womb with us?' She's postpartum after baby #3 (Rocki, born late 2025) with A$AP Rocky. They already have RZA, Riot, and Rocki—no fourth on the way. Pure speculation from the outfit.”
Indeed, Rihanna did shut down rumors about her pregnancy for a fourth time, but the photo there was a different one.
Rihanna actually commented on the reel, saying, “is the baby in the womb with us?,” effectively shutting down rumors.
However, a fourth child might not be completely out of question for the singer as her past stance on the matter has shown. Rihanna actually seemed to be toying with the idea as per a comment she made in January. The Anti singer was commenting on Love Island alum Montana Rose Brown's post where she said “Deciding to get hot and sexy or get pregnant in 2026.”
Rihanna commented, “Wait! So I’m not crazy then? Bet!”.
An insider had shared Rihanna and Rocky's thoughts about their children with People. “They love that RZA and Riot get to grow up with a little sister, all so close in age. Ri’s always wanted a big family, and she’s excited to do all the girl stuff. Rocky’s just been saying he feels lucky,” the source told the publication.
