It comes just months after the world saw RiRi and Rocky's son for the first time ever.

The "Diamonds" singer has opened up in the past about motherhood being a dream of hers. "A lot of woman get very defensive because it's personal. It's our bodies, and of course it's our time, and it's not necessarily everyone's dream to be a mom, but it is mine," she told Extra in 2019.

Earlier that year, in a sitdown for Interview, Rihanna admitted to her Ocean's 8 co-star  Sarah  Paulson that she wanted to be a mother "more than anything in life."

Rihanna and A$AP Rocky are not married, although Us Weekly reported in August 2021 that an engagement "may" happen soon. "These two are so madly in love, and it's true there's a lot of buzz in their circle about an engagement being in the works," a source told the magazine. "Going by the hints Rocky's been dropping, [it] may well happen soon, but there's no pressure and what matters most to both of them is to keep building on this truly beautiful thing they've got going."
