Trust Rihanna to redefine the red carpet rules — not with an over-the-top ensemble this time, but with a powerful personal moment. The music and beauty mogul stunned fans at the Met Gala 2025 by debuting her third pregnancy, turning heads in a quietly elegant custom Miu Miu two-piece that beautifully spotlighted her baby bump.
Opting for sophistication over spectacle, the Anti singer glowed in a minimalist look that marked a striking contrast to her past Met Gala statements — from her opulent Guo Pei robe in 2015 to the dramatic floral Comme des Garçons in 2017. This year, Rihanna skipped theatrics, letting her motherhood shine as the ultimate accessory.
Photographer Miles Diggs broke the news via Instagram, sharing a pre-carpet shot of Rihanna in New York City on Monday, May 5. The image, showing her gently cradling her bump, instantly went viral, confirming that Rihanna and A$AP Rocky are expecting baby number three. The couple, already proud parents to RZA Athelston and Riot Rose, are once again expanding their growing family — in style.
Rihanna’s partner, A$AP Rocky, served not just as her arm candy, but as one of the co-chairs for this year’s event, alongside Colman Domingo, Lewis Hamilton, and Pharrell Williams. Under the ever-watchful eye of Vogue’s Anna Wintour, the 2025 Met Gala embraced the theme Superfine: Tailoring Black Style — a powerful homage to the influence of Black menswear and its roots in the Atlantic diaspora.
The event continues to evolve as both a fashion spectacle and cultural statement, and this year, Rihanna reminded the world that some of the most impactful moments are the quietest.
