Previously, Rihanna revealed news of her second child during her explosive Super Bowl performance in 2023. During her set, she cradled her midsection several times, prompting speculation on social media that she was expecting again. Her rep confirmed shortly after the performance that she was indeed pregnant, and in August of that year, her and Rocky welcomed their second son Riot. Rihanna and Rocky had their first child, RZA, in May 2022.
In April 2024, Rihanna spoke with Interview magazine about potentially adding more children to their family. 'As many as god wants me to have,' she said. 'I don't know what god wants, but I would go for more than two. I would try for my girl. But of course if it's another boy, it's another boy.'
Outside of family life, Rihanna is due to star as the voice of Smurfette in the animated film 'Smurfs,' out July 18. Rocky, meanwhile, has been gearing up for his fourth studio album 'Don't Be Dumb,' which is tentatively due for release this year, and will appear in Spike Lee's upcoming film 'Highest 2 Lowest,' in theaters August 22.
Rihanna was recently by Rocky's side during his felony shooting trial in Los Angeles. Rocky was facing two assault charges stemming from a 2021 shooting incident that occurred outside the W Hotel in Hollywood. After a three-week trial, Rocky was found not guilty on all counts, jumping over the stand to hug Rihanna and his mother, Renee Black, and sister Erika Mayers.

John Harbaugh, Mark Andrews Praise DeAndre Hopkins at OTAs
John Harbaugh, Mark Andrews Praise DeAndre Hopkins at OTAs originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Baltimore Ravens weren't the biggest players in the 2025 offseason. In the middle of a Super Bowl window, the limitations of the cap and meager draft capital ensured they wouldn't show up on lists of the spring's winners. Advertisement With superstar quarterback Lamar Jackson and a strong core supporting him, a championship remains tantalizingly close. The offseason, thus, was meant to reinforce those Super Bowl aspirations by filling minor holes with smaller moves. One such acquisition was receiver DeAndre Hopkins. Coming off the worst year of his career, expectations for the veteran receiver are low. That leaves plenty of room for Hopkins to impress in Baltimore. At organized team activities (OTAs), Ravens head coach John Harbaugh revealed his first impression of Hopkins. "First of all, I think he's a heck of a football player," John Harbaugh said, via the team's website. "Obviously, you saw him today. He's a gifted guy. He's a talented guy. He's going to be a big-body, contested-catch receiver for us, certainly. Advertisement "He's moving great. Plus, he brings all that experience. He's been in big games before. He's made plays in the big games. He knows how to make plays. There's not going to be any situation that's going to be too big for him, but I just thought he and Lamar [Jackson] looked really good today out there together. It was nice to see." Hopkins projects to be a complementary piece of the passing offense, particularly in the red zone. If he can earn Jackson's trust, playing an outsized role remains possible, too. However, Hopkins is entering his age-33 season. He posted just 610 yards across 16 games, 10 of which came with Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, and didn't leave much of a mark in the playoffs. Hopkins, as the third receiver in an offense with several non-perimeter targets, isn't positioned to bounce back in the box score. But if he can win on third downs and insulate the passing offense, there's room for him to write a successful chapter in Baltimore. Advertisement "[DeAndre Hopkins] looks great," said tight end Mark Andrews. "He looks really, really good. He's been making some big plays, and I think he's going to be great for our offense, just being versatile, having a guy that catches the ball extremely well, runs really fluid routes and knows the game well. And he looks like, when he's out here, he's flying around. He's looked really good." Hopkins' Pro Bowl days are behind him, but if he's healthy, there's a role for him in a successful Ravens offense. Fans will get a chance to confirm their favorite team's first impressions as the summer rolls along.

Russell Wilson's Four-Word Message Catches Attention on Wednesday
Russell Wilson's Four-Word Message Catches Attention on Wednesday originally appeared on Athlon Sports. There may not be a whole lot of excitement surrounding the New York Giants these days. But there is an opportunity for them to lay down some building blocks to create the foundation of a winning team that will prosper not too long from now. Advertisement They brought in veteran quarterback Russell Wilson, a 10-time Pro Bowler, and while he won't be manning the position for that long, he could serve as a serviceable bridge to the Giants' next franchise signal-caller. He posted an image of himself during an offseason workout on his Instagram account with the caption "Hard Work Pays Off," and fans reacted in a positive manner. "Dangeruss," one fan wrote. "My QB1💙❤️," another fan wrote. "I love you Russ," a third user wrote. "Yessss 🔥🔥👏👏," a fourth fan wrote. "Russell Wilson fan ONLY!!" a fifth user wrote. "Cook," another user wrote. Wilson played his first 10 seasons in the NFL with the Seattle Seahawks, and he brought them a Super Bowl championship in the 2013 campaign, which was just his second in the league. Advertisement But with the team going stale, he was traded to the Denver Broncos three years ago. Plenty tabbed the Broncos as instant Super Bowl contenders, but Wilson's production dropped sharply, and the Broncos failed to make the playoffs in 2022 and 2023. He was able to take the Pittsburgh Steelers to the playoffs last season, but he clearly wasn't in their future plans, paving the way for him to head to New York. New York Giants quarterback Russell Penner-Imagn Images New York has wide receiver Malik Nabers, who had a stellar rookie campaign last year. It also has rookie QB Jaxson Dart, who the team is hoping can be groomed into a legitimate starter for years to come. Advertisement It will be difficult for the Giants to claim a playoff spot with several NFC teams looking more talented than they were in 2024. But at this point, improving on the 3-14 record they had last year would have to be considered progress.
