Inside Rihanna and A$AP Rocky’s ‘Very Happy’ Life With Sons RZA and Riot

Two months into becoming parents of two boys, Rihanna and her partner A$AP Rocky are genuinely doing very well. A source spoke to Entertainment Tonight about the couple’s life with 1-year-old RZA and 2-month-old Riot.

“Rihanna and A$AP are doing amazing since welcoming Riot,” the source said. “RZA loves being a big brother, and they’re all very happy. Rihanna and A$AP are great at prioritizing Riot and RZA. They have been making sure to carve out time for each child so that they both feel special and loved. It’s been a great time for their family.”

The source also gave details on Rihanna and Rocky’s first public date night since Riot’s arrival. They went to New York City’s Carbone in the middle of the night to celebrate Rocky’s 35th birthday.

They came “ready to have a good time and partied until the early morning hours, arriving at 3:30 A.M. and leaving at 5 A.M. They shut down Carbone and partied after-hours. They were in the best mood. They were excited to have a fun night out!”

A source previously told Entertainment Tonight in mid-September that Rihanna and Rocky are extremely hands-on parents with their boys. “They’ve got their hands full,” the source said. Their older son RZA has handled the adjustment from only child to big brother well, “and Ri and A$AP make a point to still spend special one-on-one time with him.”

The couple shared the first photos of their family of four last month.
