There was Diana Ross with the acres-long train, Colman Domingo in the sparkling blue Valentino cape — but it was not an outfit that stole the show on the red carpet. Instead, the Met Gala 2025 was shut down by news of Rihanna’s baby bump.

While her partner A$AP Rocky arrived at the Metropolitan Museum of Art without her — he was one of this year’s co-chairs for the event which celebrated The Costume Institute's latest exhibition Superfine: Tailoring Black Style — Rihanna was pictured in New York with a new plus one.
No stranger to a big pregnancy reveal, the couple first announced they were expecting in 2022 with a snowy photoshoot walking together in Harlem, New York. The picture, snapped by Miles Diggs, saw Rihanna wearing a hot-pink Chanel puffer coat unbuttoned above her stomach. Their first child, a son named RZA Athelston Mayers, was born in May 2022.

Next, she used her Super Bowl LVII halftime show slot in February 2023 to reveal her second child. She wore a custom, red Loewe jumpsuit as she performed hits including Bitch Better Have My Money, Work, Umbrella and Diamonds. Riot Rose Mayers, their second child, was then born on August 1, 2023.
Now, the couple are counting down for the latest addition to their family.
