Following Rihanna's fashionable surprise pregnancy reveal at the Met Gala, A$AP Rocky gave a hint about the name selection for their third baby. Rocky made an appearance on "Late Night with Seth Meyers" this week with Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour to recap the upper-echelon event and discuss some of the best ensembles of the night. Along with Colman Domingo, Pharrell Williams, and Lewis Hamilton, Rocky was among the esteemed co-chairs of the ball-themed "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style." During the sit-down, Meyers congratulated the "Tony Tone" rapper on the baby and asked if the newest addition would be named in the same vein as his other kids with the beauty mogul. "Your first two kids have 'R' names. Obviously, you and Rihanna have 'R' names. Is this a lock that the third will have an "R" name, do you think?" the talk show host asked. "For sure," Rocky responded while nodding his head. The 36-year-old New York native and Rihanna, 37, have two sons, RZA Athleston Mayers and Riot Rose. Although the gender has not been made public, she has been open about wanting to try for a girl in the past. 2025 Met Gala: Rihanna, Diana Ross, more red carpet highlights Rihanna makes another pregnancy announcement in NYC Before arriving at the Met Gala on May 5, Rihanna was spotted sporting a visible baby bump in numerous photos, including one shared on Instagram by her photographer, Miles Diggs.
