Rihanna is marking International Women's Day in the most iconic way by sharing never-before-seen photos of the powerful moments she gave birth to her sons, RZA and Riot Rose.
The global superstar and business mogul took to Instagram to post touching images of herself cradling her newborns in a hospital bed. Alongside the images, she reflected on the life-changing experience of motherhood.
"By far the most powerful thing I've ever done as a woman my little miracles! #InternationalWomensDay," Rihanna wrote in her caption. She clarified that the first photo featured RZA, born in May 2022, while the second image captured the birth of Riot Rose in August 2023.
Adding her signature style to the moment, Rihanna shared a lighthearted detail about her second childbirth: "And yes I gave birth in pearls and sunglasses don't ask, a lot was happening." The photo of her with baby Riot Rose indeed shows her donning pink sunglasses and a string of pearls, along with perfectly manicured nails. Meanwhile, the first image with RZA highlights the singer wearing three gold necklaces, one featuring a large medallion.
Rihanna first surprised the world with her second pregnancy announcement during the 2023 Super Bowl Halftime Show, where she confidently flaunted her baby bump in a bold red jumpsuit. The reveal became one of the most talked-about moments of the event.
Fans have been eagerly awaiting new music from the Grammy-winning artist, and Rihanna has hinted that her ninth studio album is in the works. While there's no confirmed release date, she recently revealed that the album will have "no genre" and even teased the possibility of including recordings of her sons.
"I already got stuff that I feel I could make hits out of," she told Entertainment Tonight last year. "Me and Rocky are already trying to figure out who's going to use what because it's so good."
While the wait for new music continues, Rihanna's latest post is a reminder of her incredible journey not just as an artist, but as a mother embracing the most powerful moments of womanhood. Her International Women's Day tribute is both personal and inspiring, proving once again that Rihanna does everything in style even giving birth.
