Rihanna Makes Red Carpet Return With A$AP Rocky After Giving Birth to Baby No. 3
A$AP Rocky is down to be a gentle father figure.
In fact, it’s a title the newly minted girl dad has worn fondly since welcoming his third child and first daughter Rocki Irish with Rihanna in September.
“Being a girl dad at this point kinda makes you more vulnerable,” Rocky told E! News at the 2025 CFDA Fashion Awards presented by Amazon Fashion in New York City on Nov. 2. “And I’m ready for that stage in my life. It makes you way more agile and precious with everything.”
A$AP, who also shares sons RZA, 3, and Riot, 2, with Rihanna added, “I think that it fits me and suits me well.”
Fatherhood is the perfect look for the dad of three, who was honored with the Style Icon Award during the annual ceremony.
“Being a dad in general is just amazing,” the “Fashion Killa” rapper told E! News. “And it’s life changing.”
A$AP and Rihanna’s date night marked the “Umbrella” singer’s first red carpet appearance since the arrival of their baby girl on Sept. 13. For the outing, Rihanna, 37, found the perfect complement to A$AP’s dapper head-to-toe Chanel look, working it in a black trench coat and white trousers combo by Alaïa.
And while the couple—who have been together since 2019—aren’t shy about putting their love and style on display, they have remained mum about their marriage status, after the rapper refereed to himself as Rihanna’s “ loving husband.”

"Being a father and a partner and a loving husband in my family is what makes me really, really happy,” he told Perfect Magazine in an interview published Oct. 29.
"That’s what honestly does get me going: being able to express myself creatively, being able to be a family man and being able to be an artisan."
Just a month prior, the Highest to Lowest star teased their relationship status, asking Elle, “How you know I’m not already a husband?”
However, the “Praise the Lord” rapper wasn’t willing to clarify, adding, “I’m still not gonna confirm it.”

After announcing they were expecting their first baby, Rihanna recalled keeping her pregnancy a secret from her friends. "It was harder for me to keep it from my posse, because they're around me, they know my habits," she told E!'s Justin Sylvester. "They're like, 'You don't want something to drink? You're not smoking?' And I'm eating all the things I'm not used to eating. They know I hate sweets and I'm all of a sudden asking for cookies and donuts. But finally, I just had to let it all out, and they were all shocked, of course, as the world was shocked as well."
