Rihanna is not expecting her third child and the rumors are false

It is worth noting that the singer is not pregnant, and the news that is circulating on the internet is fake. According to HITC, all of this began when a fake video of the singer was circulated with the claim that she was expecting another baby.

The deepfake video has everything to make people think that the Work singer and her rapper boyfriend are having another baby. The text on the screen directly says, "Rihanna said she's pregnant again," written over a picture of the singer's family.

After that, there's a part where the Umbrella singer can be seen in the video, but someone has added a voiceover to make it seem like she's confirming the made-up story about having a third child.

In another part of the video, a different voice, probably created by AI, asks the singer, "How many kids do you want?" The fake voice replies, "3. I am pregnant again."

The picture that is going viral is also from May 2023, when she was expecting her second child. Other than this, no reliable source has confirmed that she is pregnant again.


Social media users shared hilarious ASAP Rocky memes soon after the fake pregnancy news of Rihanna came to light

As internet users came across the Diamonds singer being pregnant again, they started reacting to it. Several social media users shared hilarious memes about the rapper. They said that this is so funny and that ASAP Rocky took Bible too seriously where it was mentioned to be fruitful.

Others reacted by saying that only rich people can afford to do this.

It is worth noting that Rihanna gave birth to her first son, RZA, in May 2022, and in August 2023, she gave birth to her second son, Riot Rose. Earlier, in several interviews, she said that she wants to have a large family.

In 2020, while speaking with British Vogue, she said that she wants a big family and wants to have three or four kids.
