The Grammy winner first revealed in January that she was expecting her first child with Rocky, 33. After she was photographed debuting her baby bump in New York City, a source told PEOPLE that Rihanna is “excited to be a mom” and “couldn’t be happier.”
“Everything Rihanna does, she does it her own way on her own time table, and having a baby is no different,” the source said, adding that Rihanna and Rocky were over the moon about their baby on the way. “They’re just like any other pair of parents-to-be. Yes, they happen to be famous but they’re just the cutest, giddiest young couple that’s expecting kids.”
“Teresa from Jersey does not play about her kids. She will flatten you about those kids. And that resonates with me a lot because I feel like that’s the type of mom I’m going to be,” Rihanna told the outlet. “Psycho about it.”
The singer then quipped that she’ll actually be “worse” than Giudice, adding, “You talk about my kids, it’s over.”
Throughout her pregnancy, Rihanna showcased iconic maternity styles that often put her bare baby on display.
During a Los Angeles Fenty Beauty event in February, the singer told PEOPLE that it’s been “fun” but also “a challenge” to play with fashion while she’s pregnant. “I like it. I’m enjoying it,” she said at the time.
“I’m enjoying not having to worry about covering up my tummy,” the “We Found Love” singer added. “If I feel a little chubby, it’s like, whatever! It’s a baby!”
The mom-to-be also opened up about how fashion and beauty helped her to feel confident.
“Right now, being pregnant, some days you just feel like, ‘Ugh, I just want to lay here on this couch all day,’ ” she explained. “But when you put on a little face and a little lipstick, you transform.”
