Barbadian singer Rihanna and her partner A$AP Rocky, 34, have welcomed their second baby together. The couple is already parents to son RZA, 15 months. 

The pair announced the second pregnancy during the pop star's Super Bowl halftime show. The Grammy winner took the stage at halftime of Super Bowl LVII between the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona on Febury 12.

The performance marked the pop star's first time to take the stage in almost seven years.

Rihanna sang and danced to a number of her well-known hits like “We Found Love”, “Where Have You Been”, “Diamonds”, and “Work”.

Dressed head-to-toe in bright red, Rihanna revealed a baby bump. She played up the big reveal in the opening moments of her performance, rubbing her stomach and leaving the zipper of her outfit — a jumpsuit layered over a close-fitting bodysuit and sculpted bandeau — down to reveal her belly.

The singer's son's unique moniker name pays homage to the leader of the Wu-Tang Clan, producer and rapper RZA (pronounced "Rizza"), whose real name is Robert Fitzgerald Diggs.

"She loves being a mom so this is where her mind is at the moment," a source told PEOPLE in February about Rihanna's parenting style. "She is the happiest she has ever been."

The Grammy winner and A$AP Rocky welcomed their first child in May 2022.

 Rihanna first revealed in January 2022 that she was expecting her first child with Rocky, 33. After she was photographed debuting her baby bump in New York City, a source told PEOPLE that Rihanna is "excited to be a mom" and "couldn't be happier."

Before welcoming their first child, Rihanna told Elle that, as a fan of The Real Housewives franchise, she believes her parenting style will be similar to Real Housewives of New Jersey's Teresa Giudice.

"Teresa from Jersey does not play about her kids. She will flatten you about those kids. And that resonates with me a lot because I feel like that's the type of mom I'm going to be. Psycho about it." Rihanna told the outlet. "
