There’s almost no way one could have missed the news that Rihanna is pregnant with her third child to partner A$AP Rocky. Even more so given the incredible maternity style moment it celebrated.

The ‘Umbrella’ singer made an iconic bump debut during the 2025 Met Gala; first photographed in a rainy New York street shoot before a quick outfit change to grace the red carpet.

Considering her previous pregnancy announcement included her 2023 Super Bowl half-time show, the show-stealing moment felt completely on brand.

The moment, which will undoubtedly go down in pop culture history, also served as a reminder of Rihanna’s impeccable maternity style.

During her first two pregnancies with RZA and Riot, RiRi was determined to defy maternity dressing cliches and traditions. And honestly, did we expect anything less?

“When I found out I was pregnant, I thought to myself, There’s no way I’m going to go shopping in no maternity aisle,” the 37-year-old singer previously told Vogue. “I’m sorry – it’s too much fun to get dressed up. I’m not going to let that part disappear because my body is changing.

The singer’s commitment to personal style proves maternity fashion is what you make it and we’re absolutely taking notes. She also joins a growing list of flawless maternity fashion from celebrities, including Jennifer Lawrence and Emily Ratajkowski.

If you’re looking for inspiration, we’ve rounded up our favourite looks from the Rihanna maternity style roster.
