Pregnant Rihanna was spotted leaving State Farm Stadium in Arizona on Sunday after her triumphant Super Bowl LVII halftime show.
The “Love on the Brain” hitmaker, 34, left the stadium with boyfriend A$AP Rocky, 34, who was pictured holding his nine-month-old son.
Rocky smiled widely after the Fenty mogul confirmed she’s pregnant with her second child, surprising fans with a baby bump during her much-anticipated comeback performance.
The star, who gave birth to her first child just nine months ago, caused a stir on social media as she took to the stage and rubbed her stomach in front of an audience of millions worldwide.
A rep for Rihanna — who made history as the first pregnant woman to headline a Super Bowl halftime show — confirmed the baby news shortly after the show ended.

The exciting show marked her first live television performance since 2018, where she took to the stage with DJ Khaled to sing Wild Thoughts at the Grammy Awards.
Rihanna kicked off the show on a platform high above the field belting out her single “B**** Better Have My Money.” She wore a baggy, scarlet jumpsuit that hid her curves and was belted loosely.
Underneath, however, she wore a skin-tight bodysuit that accentuated her burgeoning baby bump.
She kept her dance moves to a minimum, leaving the backup dancers to fill the gap.
Rihanna stuck to the hits and didn’t reveal any new songs during her performance, which included 12 songs.
She freaked out the crowd when she switched to Where Have You Been, followed by the hit song Only Girl (In The World).
We Found Love, Rude Boy and their hit work followed, although their collaborator Drake did not appear on the later song. She continued with Wild Thoughts and Pour It Up.

The hitmaker made some controversial song choices, including an excerpt of her verse from rapper Kanye West’s All Of The Lights, and she also performed part of Jay-Z’s Run This Town, which also starred West in his original version.
Rihanna ended her performance with the double hit of Umbrella and then Diamonds to finish.
Forgoing some of the pyrotechnics of recent Super Bowl halftime performances, she apparently bet her fans would be happy to see her without the added theatrics.
The superstar, who was born Robyn Rihanna Fenty, hasn’t released a solo album since January 2016. Her only solo music in the last seven years came in October when she released Lift Me Up as a tribute to the late actor Chadwick Boseman for the Marvel film Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, which earned the singer an Oscar nomination.
Despite not being in the spotlight for most of the game, Rihanna’s partner A$AP Rocky (real name: Rakim Mayers) put on a sweet show by showing that he was cheering for his love.

His jacket also featured an American flag and NFL logo, and he also rocked a Fenty cap to support Rihanna’s brands.
The Kansas City Chiefs eventually won their third NFL championship by defeating the Philadelphia Eagles 38-35 behind an epic performance from superstar quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who ultimately became MVP.
Rihanna’s pregnancy reveal came as a surprise as she previously told Apple Music’s Nadeska Alexis ahead of the performance that she had been hesitant to sign up for the performance because she had recently given birth to a child.
“I said, ‘Are you sure? I am three months postpartum. Should I be making important decisions like this now? I might regret that,” she said of The Hollywood Reporter.
“When you become a mom, something just happens that makes you feel like you can take on the world — you can do anything,” Rihanna continued. “And the Super Bowl is one of the biggest stages in the world, as scary as that was… there’s something exciting about the challenge of it all.
“It’s important for my son to see that,” she added.
But although she waited until the big day to unveil her latest baby bump, she seems to have hinted that baby number two is on the way in an interview conducted just before the show.
While speaking with CBS Mornings co-host Nate Burleson, Rihanna admitted that she was “thinking about bringing someone,” which in hindsight appeared to refer to her unborn child.
