Rihanna Is Pregnant With Third Child, Reveals Baby Bump at Met Gala
Rihanna revealed that she's expecting her third child with A$AP Rocky, debuting her baby bump before the Met Gala. Rihanna revealed her pregnancy as she was entering the Carlyle Hotel. Rocky, one of the co-chairs for the Met Gala, walked the Met Gala carpet shortly after. He and his fellow co-chairs, also including Colman Domingo, Lewis Hamilton, LeBron James and Pharrell Williams, were required to arrive early. More from Variety Pharrell Williams and Audra McDonald on Putting Dandyism on Display at the Met Gala: 'It's About Time' Colman Domingo's Stylists on His Met Gala Look, Mood Boarding on Pinterest and Dandysim: 'It's Our Culture, Our Heritage, Black Excellence' A$AP Rocky Found Not Guilty in Shooting Felony Trial 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.

Barry Diller's Moment of Truth
Barry Diller has only just started his book tour, but he's already trying to sneak away. 'I'm shortening the tour part,' the 83-year-old mogul said recently in his sonorous baritone, the 'Killer Diller' voice that intimidated and intrigued Hollywood for more than half a century. 'I am not up for interrogation on aspects of my personal life.' As we sat on cappuccino-colored couches in his gorgeous Art Nouveau aerie in the Carlyle hotel, I reminded Diller about the bewitchingly candid first paragraph of his bildungsroman, 'Who Knew': The household I grew up in was perfectly dysfunctional. My parents separated often and came a day short of divorce several times before I was 10; my brother was a drug addict by age 13; and I was a sexually confused holder of secrets from the age of 11. And there it was, Hollywood's worst-kept secret spilled: Barry Diller is gay. Or rather, bisexual — or bi with Di, since, as he writes, 'While there have been a good many men in my life from the age of 16, there has only ever been one woman.' The sultry Princess of Wrap, Diane von Furstenberg, swept him away back in the Studio 54 days. She's proud of being the first woman he ever slept with, in a torrid romance that later unfurled into a long, happy, sexually liberated marriage. Von Furstenberg and Diller's friends are watching, wide-eyed, as Diller talks publicly for the first time about his unorthodox private life. The gruff, point-blank executive is known, as the Netflix chief executive Ted Sarandos said, as 'one of the very few who doesn't care what people think in a town full of people who do care.' That is true in business. But for most of his lifetime, Diller did care about what people thought of his sexual orientation. 'I wanted to tell the story,' he said about his alienated childhood and dazzling career. 'And I knew if I told the story, I had to tell the truth.' That doesn't make it easier. He's kept his private life shrouded for so long, it's hard now to rip off that shroud. Even though he early on created what he calls his own 'Bill of Rights,' where he would not tell many people in his business world that he was gay but would also not pretend to be heterosexual and act like 'one of the boys,' he now says he was just 'chicken.' 'So many of us at that time were in this exiled state, so stunted in the way we lived,' he writes. 'Consider if you can what such a daily drip of that kind of dysfunctional life does to one's sense of self.' Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
