Rihanna revealed she’s expecting her third baby with A$AP Rocky at the 2025 Met Gala on Monday (May 5).

While she’s yet to hit the blue carpet at New York City’s Metropolitan Museum of Art, photographer Miles Diggs shared the good news on his Instagram with the caption “Chance of Showers,” as the “Umbrella” hitmaker hit the streets with her umbrella and her baby bump popping out of her baby blue ensemble.


Rihanna and Rocky share two sons together, RZA Athelston Mayers, who turns three years old this month, and 1-year-old Riot Rose Mayers.

Her partner A$AP Rocky is serving as one of the co-chairs of this year’s Met Gala, alongside Pharrell Williams, Colman Domingo and Lewis Hamilton, while LeBron (James served as honorary chair. James announced on X he had to cancel his appearance due to a knee injury he sustained at the end of the season.)

This year’s Met Gala celebrated the theme of “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” inspired by Monica L. Miller’s 2009 book Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity. “This is probably one of my favorite themes of all of them,” Rihanna previously told Access Hollywood. “I’ve had tons of incredible themes with the Met Ball that I’ve enjoyed, but this one it just made me respect it so much more…. It’s a celebration of culture. It’s also a celebration of history. It’s just bringing it to the forefront on a platform where we’ve been kind of hidden and it’s just accepting it.”

Blavatnik will oversee Warner Music Canada as managing director of Warner Music North America, U.K. and Corporate Development at WMG. As part of a slew of executive announcements, Simon Robson will be leaving the company, while Alejandro Duque takes the top international role.

Val Blavatnik, the 28-year-old son of Warner Music Group majority owner and vice chairman Len Blavatnik, has been named managing director of Warner Music North America, U.K. and Corporate Development at the Warner Music Group, the company announced Friday (Sept. 25). In his new role the younger Blavatnik, who has held several roles at the company in recent years, and has been a board member since 2023, expects to “unify and drive business and operational strategy across these markets while guiding the company’s investment strategy to support growth,” according to a press release.

The Blavatnik announcement is part of a flurry of new executive announcements that CEO Robert Kyncl made this morning. In addition, Atlantic Music Group chairman/CEO Elliot Grainge will take on ADA in the U.S. as its new chairman, while Alejandro Duque, who has held the dual roles of president of Warner Latin and president of ADA since last July, has been named president of Warner Music International, adding Asia-Pacific and Europe, the Middle East and Africa under his oversight. (Duque will continue to oversee ADA outside the U.S.) Zach Friedman, currently COO at Atlantic Music Group, will add the title of vice chair of ADA U.S. to his resume.
