Some fans claimed to have known about the delivery days prior, and one took to Twitter to explain their inside knowledge.

BABY CLUES

“Somebody posted on Facebook that Rihanna had her baby at a hospital they’re working at and said it’s a boy talking about they cleared that floor level.. Y’all be risking your careers and jobs to tell celebrities business,” one wrote on Twitter on May 13, the day the baby was reported to be born.

At that time, speculation grew regarding Rihanna, 34, welcoming her baby alongside her boyfriend A$AP Rocky.

The makeup mogul was frequently posting on her Instagram profile over the last several weeks but had a cold hard stop on May 10.

Since then, she’s remained silent on all platforms, adding to theories that she had given birth.

BUNDLE OF JOY

But on May 19, the news broke that she reportedly had finally welcomed her first child.

According to TMZ, Rihanna and her boyfriend’s first child is a baby boy.

The site reported that the singer gave birth on May 13 in Los Angeles, but the name hasn’t been revealed yet.

Rihanna had previously not been shy about showing off her baby bump as she was spotted out and about various times putting it on display.

HOT MAMA

Earlier in March, she was seen going shirtless and wearing only tiny leather shorts and sexy knee-high boots while flaunting her naked baby bump.

Weeks earlier she had shown off her baby bump in a short leather dress as she hit Paris Fashion Week with rapper A$AP, 33.

The businesswoman also previously opened up about motherhood, telling Elle that she thinks she’ll parent like Real Housewives of New Jersey star Teresa Giudice.

She explained: “Teresa from Jersey does not play about her kids. She will flatten you about those kids.

“You talk about my kids, it’s over.”

WEDDING BELLS?

Aside from being a mom, Rihanna has fueled speculation that she may soon be a wife as the entertainer was previously noticed shopping for baby clothes with a massive ring on her finger.

The ring featured a thick gold band with a large diamond in the center.

Back in February, a source told The Mirror about Rihanna and A$AP’s plans to tie the knot.

The insider said at the time: “Rihanna is totally smitten with A$AP.

“They have a very close bond and Rihanna has always been quite traditional.

“They will be married, for sure. She has told pals she wants to be with him forever, and he has said the same.”

The informant also revealed that the famous couple was waiting on welcoming their first child before kicking off marriage plans.

“She has always wanted to get married and A$AP is her forever person,” the source said.

They added: “The wedding will be in Barbados as they both have family there, it’s the place that brought them together, and holds a very special place in their hearts.”

LOVE STORY

Rihanna and A$AP have known each other for almost a decade, but their relationship didn’t turn romantic until 2020.

The two have kept their romance private, though the rap star did refer to Rihanna as “my lady” and the “love of my life” during a 2021 interview with GQ.
