Rihanna and A$AP Rocky have quietly ushered in a new chapter in their lives. On September 13, 2025, the couple welcomed their baby girl, Rocki Irish Mayers, at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. Her arrival marks their third child and first daughter joining brothers RZA (born in 2022) and Riot (born in 2023).
The news was revealed more than a week later, when Rihanna shared a heartfelt post on Instagram featuring herself cradling the newborn, along with an image of baby shoes. She captioned it simply: “Rocki Irish Mayers Sept 13 2025 🎀.”

That social media post instantly resonated. Fans across platforms flooded the comments section as A$AP Rocky joined in, writing
“MY LIL LADIES ❤️”
Visibly proud of his new role as a girl dad. Many appreciated the simplicity of the announcement, no long caption, just love, a name, a date, and the visuals. It felt genuine, unforced.
The timing and style of the reveal also sparked discussion. Rihanna had confirmed her pregnancy earlier in May at the Met Gala, where she dramatically showcased her baby bump. Since then, the couple had seemed to lean into secrecy, keeping most pregnancy updates private until the official announcement.
What makes this moment particularly meaningful is how it completes the “R” theme in their family. Every member, from parents to their children has a name beginning with “R.” Rocki continues that pattern, but her middle name, “Irish,” adds a fresh twist that’s already drawing curiosity from fans.
In the broader context, the birth comes after a turbulent few months for Rocky, who was acquitted of firearm-related charges earlier in 2025. That moment, shared with his family present, felt like a turning point. Now, welcoming a daughter seems to symbolise a new season both personally and publicly.
Rihanna and A$AP Rocky’s announcement of baby Rocki is a reminder that in a world filled with spectacle, simplicity still holds power. No over-the-top production, no cryptic teases, just a mother, her newborn, a name, and a date. For their fans, it’s a tender, intimate moment to celebrate. As Rocki Irish Mayers grows, she’ll join two older brothers and step into a family identity already rich with love, creativity, and that signature “R” spirit.
