Singer Rihanna announced her third pregnancy on Monday, May 5, 2025, at the Met Gala held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
Rihanna stunned the world on Monday with a surprise announcement at the prestigious Met Gala, revealing that she is expecting her third child. Walking the red carpet at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the Barbadian superstar appeared in a spectacular outfit by Marc Jacobs, proudly showcasing her already prominent baby bump.
She wore a striped coat repurposed as a skirt, paired with a gray top featuring a white collar and polka-dot jabot, topped with a matching bolero jacket. Her look was completed with an oversized hat and two-tone derby shoes. It was a bold entrance from a woman who is not only a global music icon but also a fashion trailblazer.
The announcement comes two years after Rihanna made headlines during the 2023 Super Bowl halftime show, where she revealed her second pregnancy. Absent from the 2024 edition of the Met Gala, she made a highly anticipated return this year, especially with her partner, ASAP Rocky, serving as one of the event’s co-chairs.

With this latest announcement, Rihanna once again leaves her mark on Met Gala history—blending elegance, originality, and deeply personal moments shared with the world.
