Rihanna Gave Birth in Pearls & Sunglasses: ‘Don't Ask, A Lot Was Happening'
Rihanna will never get caught slipping—even during her most vulnerable moments. In honor of International Women's Day, Rihanna shared never-before-seen photos from the births of her sons RZA and Riot Rose. 'By far the most powerful thing I've ever done as a woman…my little miracles!' Rihanna captioned the social media post, which showed the babies resting on her chest. Despite being in a hospital bed, hooked up to tubes, Rihanna was as fashionable as ever.
In the first image of Rihanna cradling RZA, the 'Umbrella' singer rocked a set of diamond-encrusted pearls. In the photo with Riot Rose, Rihanna is seen wearing a pair of pink Celine sunglasses. 'And yes, I gave birth in pearls and sunglasses…don't ask, a lot was happening,' Rihanna added in the caption of the carousel, prompting praise from fans. 'Baddie even during birth,' one social media user gushed as a second wrote, 'Only you can make giving birth look THIS damn good.'

Before giving birth in style, Rihanna carried in style. She's been hailed for changing the maternity fashion game due to her skin-baring, high fashion maternity outfits. We're still not over the sparkly shredded look from The Attico that she wore to the Fenty Beauty Universe Event in February 2022 and the black bump-baring lingerie she donned at the Dior show in March 2022 during her first pregnancy. During her second pregnancy, there was the faux fur Loewe outfit in May 2023 and billowing white Valentino gown from the Met Gala that same month.
She got candid about her maternity style in 2022, telling Bustle, 'I'm not going to buy maternity clothes. … When I saw women dress during their pregnancy [in the past], I'd think that was the only way. So I challenged myself to push it further and really just have fun.'
