Rihanna and A$AP Rocky nearly broke the internet on January 31, 2022, when they announced that they were expecting their first child together. Fashion photographer Diggzy snapped shots of the couple walking through Rocky's hometown of Harlem with a pregnant Rihanna wearing an unbuttoned pink coat to show off her bump. The photos, also published by Shutterstock and People, feature solo shots of the "You Da One" singer and a sweet moment of Rocky kissing RiRi's forehead.

Rihanna shared a more candid picture of her growing belly a day later on her Instagram account, writing, "how the gang pulled up to black history month." Fans and celebrities went bananas over the announcement on social media, with industry giants and fellow mothers Nicki Minaj and Cardi B sending their congratulations. However, Drake reportedly unfollowed both Rihanna and Rocky soon after the couple broke the news. There's always one bitter ex, huh? 

At the time, fans were already speculating that this could be the first of many kids for the couple, as Rihanna told British Vogue in 2020, "I'll have kids — three or four of 'em."
