Rihanna and A$AP Rocky Have Had Their First Child

“I think I’d be an incredible, remarkably overall amazing dad. I would have a very fly child. Very.”

Pop and hip-hop titans Rihanna and A$AP Rocky have welcomed their first child according to a TMZ Report. 

Born on 13th of May in Los Angeles, the name of the child is still unknown. 

The couple have been dating for two years now, unveiling that Rihanna was pregnant as she strolled through New York in January. 

The birth comes a fortnight after A$AP Rocky seemingly proposed in his most recent single's music video D.M.B.

Its music video features the pair travelling around New York together, styled perfectly and deeply and romantically in love. It was directed by Rocky himself and was shot last Summer.

It ends with a wedding scene, as the duo walk through a crowd of peers with flowers presented to them. As they make it to the end of the hallway, he presents his gold grills that state 'Marry Me?' and Rihanna opens her mouth in reply, with her grills reading 'I DO'.

After fan speculation, TMZ reported that the pair had not been married. 

In an interview with Vogue, Rihanna commented on her pregnancy, stating, “When I found out I was pregnant, I thought to myself, There’s no way I’m going to go shopping in no maternity aisle,

"I’m sorry – it’s too much fun to get dressed up. I’m not going to let that part disappear because my body is changing.

"My body is doing incredible things right now, and I’m not going to be ashamed of that. This time should feel celebratory. Because why should you be hiding your pregnancy?”
