According to reports, sources have confirmed that Rihanna and A$AP Rocky have welcomed their second child. The celebrity couple are parents to 15-month-old RZA and now have a second child. Per reports, it is a baby boy. Rihanna broke headlines in February while performing at the Super Bowl when she introduced the world to her growing baby bump.
After announcing her second pregnancy, the megastar told British Vogue, “We’re best friends with a baby,” she said. “We have to be on the same page, but we’ve always kind of had that in our relationship. Everything changes when you have a baby but I wouldn’t say it’s done anything but made us closer.”

Mason Greenwood is to leave Manchester United over six months after charges of sexual assault and domestic violence against the striker were dropped. Greenwood had been suspended by United since he was first arrested in January 2022 in relation to distressing images and audio released on social media. He was charged in October 2022. However, all charges were dropped in February of this year by the Crown Prosecution Service after the withdrawal of key witnesses and the emergence of new evidence.
United began an internal investigation into Greenwood in February when the charges were dropped, concluding the process in August. According to reports, United chief executive Richard Arnold had communicated to staff that Greenwood was going to be reintegrated into the first team and planned an announcement in early August, only to delay the decision. Reports said on August 19 that United had U-turned on the decision and were now planning to not reintegrate Greenwood into the squad. Rihanna Second Child
