No, Rihanna is currently not married.
Since November 2020, Rihanna has been dating A$AP Rockey. According to People, Rocky pretended to propose to Rihanna in the D.M.B. music video in May 2022, and the couple has yet to marry. Rihanna gave birth to a boy on May 13, 2022, and a second son on August 3, 2023. A$AP Rocky fathered both of the boys.
Fans have been speculating about whether or not they got married in real life after he famously posed the question, "Marry me?" with his grillz and she responded, "I do," in the same way.
Of course, neither of them has publicly declared their marital status. RiRi and A$AP Rocky, real name Rakim Mayers, are thought to have started dating in 2020, after she ended her relationship with businessman Hassan Jameel. A year later, the "Praise The Lord" singer publicly confessed his love for her, referring to her as "The One" in a magazine interview.
The Fenty founder, who is notorious for keeping their romance private, was apparently preparing for a wedding in Barbados in 2022. Rumors about their marriage or a secret-marriage are not new in the tabloid media, but without an official announcement, nothing can be certain.
Who is A$AP?
Rapper, record producer, and record executive Rakim Athelaston Mayers, better known by his stage name ASAP Rocky, was born in the United States on October 3, 1988. He began his musical career as a member of the hip-hop group ASAP Mob, from which he took his stage name. He was born and raised in Harlem. Rocky's song "Peso," which was leaked online in August 2011, soon started getting radio play.
Later that year, Rocky released his debut mixtape, "Live. Love." His highly regarded breakthrough project's success resulted in a joint record deal with Polo Grounds Music and Sony Music's RCA Records.
A$AP (2013)'s first studio album, "Long. Live," debuted at the top of the Billboard 200 and later received a double platinum certification from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Rocky's breakthrough single, "Fuckin' Problems," which featured Drake, 2 Chainz, and Kendrick Lamar and was nominated for Best Rap Song at the 2014 Grammy Awards, came before the album.
"At Long Last," Rocky's second album, was released in 2015. The album, which debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 for Rocky's second straight time, was generally well-received by critics. At the 2016 Grammy Awards, the album's lead single, "L$D," received a nomination for "Best Music Video." Rocky's third album, “Testing,” was released in 2018, and it reached the top five of the charts in a number of nations, including the Billboard 200.
In addition to being nominated for two Grammy Awards, six World Music Awards, three MTV Video Music Awards, and two MTV Europe Music Awards, Rocky has won a BET Award, two BET Hip Hop Awards, an MTV Video Music Award Japan, and an MTVU Woodie Award. In addition, Rocky has directed music videos for Danny Brown, the A$AP Mob, and himself. He also releases music under the alias Lord Flacko.
How did A$AP Rocky and Rihanna meet?
In 2012, Rocky and Rihanna first met at the MTV Video Music Awards. Rocky joined Rihanna for a performance of her hit song "Cockiness," which was featured on a remix. But Rocky approached Rihanna while they were on stage.
"He grabbed my a** on stage." “That was not part of the rehearsal." In a 2022 interview with Vogue, she reflected. "I was like, ‘What are you doing?’" But Rihanna didn't lose her cool and gave Rocky a pass. "My manager was like, 'Oh, God, she must like this guy a little bit." She never lets this s*** slide.’"
The following year, after their VMA performance together, Rocky joined Rihanna on her Diamonds World Tour. They had relationships with other people throughout the 2010s, such as Rocky's with Kendall Jenner and Rihanna's with business tycoon Hassan Jameel. While confined together during the pandemic, Rihanna and Rocky, who had been dating since 2020, became closer. She said in her interview with Vogue that "he became my family during that time."
When Rihanna and Rocky made their first child announcement in January 2022, they broke the internet. Although Rihanna was eager to become a mother, she acknowledged that she worries about how she will balance motherhood with her career and her businesses.
"Balance is one of my biggest challenges and always has been," she said. "And now there’s another human being coming into play, it changes what that means again." “Still, I have businesses that aren’t going to run themselves. My mom handled the three of us with not even close to the amount of resources that I have, so I can absolutely do it. What does it look like? I’m not sure."
How does the parenting journey of A$AP and Rihanna go?
On May 13, last year, Rihanna gave birth to her first child, but initially, we had only seen a foot or a hand. Rihanna made the decision to give us pictures and the cutest video of her then-7-month-old son on December 17, 2022.
The "Umbrella" singer, 35, captured a video of her son laughing and smiling in the backseat of a car as she cooed at him and asked, "You trying to get Mummy's phone?" Due to privacy concerns. While filming her Savage X Fenty Vol. 4 show, Rihanna provided a rare update on her then-six-month old son, describing him as a "happy" baby. She described her and A$AP Rocky's child to People as "funny, happy, and fat." "He's amazing." It's a real cuddly stage right now."
The singer announced that she will appear in the upcoming show's "Mother Nature section." "I'm looking forward to it," she said. 'It's my first real thing that I've done since I had the baby, work-wise.'
According to a source who spoke to Entertainment Tonight, Rihanna and A$AP Rocky's attitude toward fame has changed since the birth of their child. The source said, "They're keeping things low-key so they can enjoy their little family." "Privacy has become increasingly important to the couple. When it was just the two of them, they'd go out all hours of the day and night and interact with fans. Now, with the baby, they're a little more protective."
