Rumours have long been swirling that Rihanna and A$AP Rocky are planning a wedding – but are they already married?
Rihanna and A$AP Rocky have faced engagement rumours for months after rumours began swirling online that the pair were planning to get married.
The ‘Lift Me Up’ songstress gave birth to her second son in August just 15 months after she and her rapper beau welcomed their first baby boy.
However, rumours that the power couple had already exchanged vows hit a fever pitch after they attended the Met Gala in ensembles that were very 'bride and groom' coded.
And now fans are wondering what’s next for the pair, are Rihanna and A$AP Rocky engaged, are they planning a wedding, or are they already secretly married?
Here’s a look at their relationship and alleged wedding details…
Rihanna and A$AP Rocky attend 2023 Met Gala
Although Riri and A$AP have been dating since the end of 2020, they are not engaged as far as we know.
However, the pair are closer than ever after welcoming their baby boy in May last year, with Riri recently telling British Vogue that she couldn’t remember what her life was like before welcoming her son with A$AP.
She even named the ‘Goldie’ rapper her ‘best friend’, adding that having their son has brought them closer together.
Rihanna and A$AP first sparked rumours that they secretly got married after his iconic proposal to her in his ‘D.M.B.’ music video last year, where he can be seen asking his girlfriend via Grillz, ‘marry me?’, to which she said ‘I do’ before they walked down the aisle together.
The secret wedding claims picked up after the couple attended the 2023 Met Gala and everyone thought that their outfits were trying to tell us something...
Rihanna attended the exclusive event wearing a white Valentino gown and a rosette cape and everyone thought the ensemble was bridal themed, A$AP Rocky opted for a Gucci suit jacket and a kilt over a pair of bejewelled jeans.
A$AP reignited those marriage rumours once again in June after he performed at the Cannes Lions Festival and gave a special shoutout to his 'wife' while Riri was watching - giving us all the feels!
Rihanna and A$AP are yet to publicly comment on the marriage rumours.
An insider told Heat Magazine in January this year that Riri and Rocky are planning to tie the knot during a beach wedding soon.
Initially, the source claimed the wedding would be taking place in February 2023, but the superstar had a very busy month with her return to the stage at the Super Bowl halftime show as well as confirming her second pregnancy, so it is thought that plans had changed.
An insider said at the time: “She would love to walk down the aisle with a baby bump – and they won’t be stopping at two children, either. Being a mum has changed Ri’s life for the better in every way. She and Rocky are totally in sync as parents and are loving the experience.
“It’s brought them so much closer as a couple. Ri wants a big family – she doesn’t see any need to hang around and feels ready now her body has fully healed and recovered from the delivery in mid-May.”
They also claimed that Riri and Rocky decided to get married a while ago, adding: “[They] had to put it off a couple of times because they wanted to get through the pregnancy, then settle into raising their little guy for at least six months without any big distractions.”
Another source has since claimed that ‘throwing a wedding and having another baby is Rihanna’s main focus at the moment’.
They said: “Agreeing to do the Super Bowl definitely reinvigorated her love of performing, but it still doesn’t compare to what she has at home. Luckily, A$AP’s on board, too.”
“Rihanna would love to have a girl next,” they added while claiming Rih is hoping for three or four kids in total: “She and A$AP even have names picked out already.”
