A little over a month following the birth of their second child, the little boy named Riot Rose Mayers, Rihanna and ASAP Rocky proudly introduced their newborn in a captivating family photoshoot. Sharing the spotlight alongside them was their 16-month-old son, RZA Athelston Mayers.
In the series of endearing photographs, the family of four appeared in collective poses, with both Rihanna and ASAP Rocky taking turns to cradle their sons. For the photo session, Rihanna elegantly arranged her loose curls in an updo hairstyle and donned a denim jacket along with a navy outfit. On the other hand, the “Fashion Killa” rapper, known as Rakim Mayers, wore a green plaid shirt paired with a white tank top and jeans, radiating their familial bliss.
In the span of four or five seconds, RZA managed to captivate hearts with his attire consisting of a color-blocked shirt, denim pants, and his irresistibly charming face. Meanwhile, baby Riot effortlessly won over everyone’s affections with an all-pink ensemble that featured a matching hat and light brown boots.
The couple had always held the aspiration of expanding their family. Having spent nearly three years together, they were both deeply committed to this idea. In an interview published in February with British Vogue, the expectant mother shared her perspective, stating, “Listen, she’s down for whatever. Her wish is to have more children, but she understands that ultimately, she’s open to whatever path God chooses for her.” This interview came just days after she had announced her pregnancy during her Super Bowl Halftime performance.
In their lives, Rihanna, aged 35, and ASAP, aged 34, experienced a transformative shift when they welcomed RZA. According to Rihanna, they became the closest of friends while also being parents to their child. She conveyed to the outlet, “They are best friends with a baby now, and maintaining synchronization is crucial, but we’ve always had that dynamic in our relationship. The arrival of a baby changes everything, but I can confidently say it has only brought us closer.”
Regarding RZA’s connection with his father, it was an unparalleled bond. The Grammy winner emphasized, “Their bond is undeniable. The moment Rocky makes eye contact with his dad, he lights up with enthusiasm. Contrary to the common belief about mother-son bonds, it’s the father-son bond that’s truly remarkable. I’ve come to realize that the validation a boy truly needs is from his father.”
