A$AP Rocky may have just revealed that he and Rihanna are expecting a baby girl. The rapper dropped the big hint while attending the Smurfs world premiere in Brussels on June 28, 2025. The couple, who already have two sons, seemed excited about their growing family.
Rocky was asked by Entertainment Tonight if the baby on the way was “the girl you’ve been waiting for.” He smiled and replied,
“It is, man, it is.”
He then quickly held up a Smurfette doll, possibly trying to play it off as a joke. But fans believe he accidentally confirmed the baby’s gender.
Rihanna’s Pregnancy and Smurfs Premiere Appearance
Rihanna, who is pregnant with their third child, looked stunning at the premiere. She wore a custom light blue Chanel outfit that showed off her baby bump. The singer voices Smurfette in the new Smurfs movie, which hits theaters on July 18, 2025.
The couple announced the pregnancy at the 2025 Met Gala in May. They already have two sons—RZA, 3, and Riot Rose, 22 months. Rihanna has said before that she would love to have a daughter but is happy with her boys.
“I would try for my girl. But of course, if it’s another boy, it’s another boy,” she told Interview Magazine in 2024.
A$AP Rocky’s Playful Response and Family Plans
Rocky joked about their growing family, saying they might end up like the Wayans family, who have 10 children.
“We’re going to be like the Wayans family, you know? Love is beautiful, and it’s just spreading it,” he told Entertainment Tonight.
The rapper also talked about how fatherhood has changed him.
“Becoming a father helped me just get my dad swag bag. I’m really on that. That’s what I do. I’m on that dad swag. I love it,” he told Vogue in April.
Fans React to the Baby Gender Hint
Many fans think Rocky’s response was a clear confirmation. On social media, people shared their reactions:
“That was a slick way to ask if she is having a girl.”
“He definitely gave it away!”
Rihanna, however, stayed playful when asked about the baby’s gender.
“Let’s see if it’s a Smurfette! Could be a Papa Smurf, who knows?” she joked.
She did confirm one thing—the baby’s name will start with “R”, just like their sons RZA and Riot Rose.
“It’s always going to be an ‘R’ name. That’s the one thing me and Rocky don’t fight over!”
Rihanna’s Work on the Smurfs Movie
Besides expecting a new baby, Rihanna has been busy with the Smurfs movie. She not only voices Smurfette but also produced the film and contributed a new song, “Friend of Mine.” The movie follows Smurfette on a mission to save Papa Smurf with the help of new friends.
The premiere in Brussels was a big event, with the city celebrating all things Smurfs. The famous Manneken Pis statue was even dressed as No Name Smurf for the occasion.
What’s Next for Rihanna and A$AP Rocky?
The couple has been traveling together for work and family events. Before the Smurfs premiere, they attended Paris Fashion Week with their son Riot. Rihanna also walked the 2025 Met Gala red carpet with Rocky, where she first showed off her baby bump.
