Rihanna gushed over motherhood and her relationship with A$AP Rocky as she posed up a storm with her family for a sensational magazine cover shoot.
The singer, 34, shocked fans as she revealed her second pregnancy by debuting her baby bump during her much-anticipated Super Bowl halftime show on Sunday.
Just days after announcing her surprise pregnancy, Rihanna posed up a storm with her rapper beau, 34, and their nine-month-old son they featured on the cover of Vogue’s March issue.
Speaking to the magazine, Rihanna gushed that Rocky is her ‘best friend’ and described motherhood as ‘everything’ as she admitted she can’t remember what her life was like before having her son in May 2022.
For the glamorous photoshoot, the pop star put on a leggy display in a statement one-shouldered black gown with a very daring side split as she cosied up to Rocky in one intimate shot.

Rihanna admitted that having a child has also made her reevaluate as she described raising her son as one of the ‘scariest’ responsibilities ever in her life.
She said: ‘Raising a young Black man is one of the scariest responsibilities in life […] ‘You’re like, ‘What am I leaving my kids to? This is the planet they’re gonna be living on?’
Despite the challenges of motherhood, Rihanna insisted it has only brought her and her partner Rocky closer as she said they are ‘best friends with a baby’.
‘Everything changes when you have a baby but I wouldn’t say it’s done anything but made us closer,’ she added.
She also gushed over Rocky’s relationship with their son, saying their baby boy needs validation from his father as she described their close bond.
While she is currently pregnant with her second child, Rihanna revealed that she wants to have more children but will have to see what happens in the future.
Rihanna revealed her surprise second pregnancy by debuting her blossoming baby bump during her much-anticipated halftime Super Bowl show on Sunday.
Rihanna, who gave birth to her first child just nine months ago, sent social media into a frenzy as she took to the stage and rubbed her tummy in front of a global audience of millions.
It is thought that around 200million people watched the game between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs at State Farm Stadium in Arizona.
She shares her first child, who was born on May 13, 2022, with Rocky and the two have kept their growing family under the radar.
A representative for star confirmed the baby news shortly after the performance finished.
The Diamonds hitmaker apparently previously turned down opportunities to perform at the Super Bowl on several occasions before finally taking to the stage this year.
In 2018, it was reported that she had turned down the show in solidarity with Colin Kaepernick and because she disagreed with the handling of national anthem kneeling.
