Fans have been eagerly anticipating the release of Rihanna’s ninth studio album since she dropped “Anti” in 2016.
It’s no secret that Rihanna has some exciting things on the way, but now, fans are speculating that 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢 number three might be one of them. Recently, she was spotted rooting for her longtime partner ASAP Rocky at Rolling Loud California. The songstress stunned in a navy blue lace skirt, which she paired with a matching oversized jacket. Some suspect that she went for a baggier look to hide a growing bump, though this remains unconfirmed.
Of course, this is far from the first time fans have suspect that Rihanna and Rocky could have another little one on the way. Last June, less than a year after the duo welcomed their youngest child, the Fenty founder addressed pregnancy rumors that began circulating after she didn’t attend that year’s MET Gala. She told Entertainment Tonight that she wasn’t expecting, but added that she’s open to growing her family sometime in the future.
Rihanna’s New Album
She echoed that sentiment speaking to Interview Magazine last April. “I don’t know what God wants, but I would go for more than two,” she revealed. “I would try for my girl. But of course if it’s another boy, it’s another boy.” For now, it’s to be seen whether or not there’s any truth to these rumors, or if this is all just wishful thinking on supporters’ part.
One thing that we know Rihanna has on the way is her next album, though it does not yet have an official release date. During a chat with Harper’s BAZAAR last month, she dropped a few hints about what’s to come. “I know it’s not going to be anything that anybody expects,” she said. “And it’s not going to be commercial or radio digestible. It’s going to be where my artistry deserves to be right now. I feel like I’ve finally cracked it, girl!”
