Is Rihanna Expecting Baby Number Three? Here’s What We Know!
The Shade Room recently shared captivating images of Rihanna as she departed from the Carlyle Hotel in New York City on her way to the Met Gala. In the pictures, she tightly clutched a luxurious fur stole, seemingly attempting to conceal her baby bump. However, the side profile revealed quite a lot, leaving little to the imagination and igniting speculation among her fans.
Rihanna’s devoted fanbase, affectionately known as the Navy, is going wild over these photos, which strongly suggest that she may be expecting again. The overwhelming sentiment among fans is the desire for baby number three, especially considering that she already has two adorable sons, RZA and Riot. The lack of a new album announcement only adds to the buzz surrounding this potential new addition to her family.

What’s wrong with Rihanna being pregnant? I don’t get it… when do you guys want her to be? You don’t want female artists to be pregnant in their 20s, now Rihanna can’t have a family and she’s 37? She gave us her 20s! Let her live and rest omg.
