Rihanna looks stunning in her maternity photos from her first pregnancy.

Baby #2 is on the way but Rihanna just dropped off some gorgeous maternity photos from her first pregnancy. The Fenty founder unveiled a series of pictures on her Instagram page where she poses nearly nude. In the photos, Rihanna covers her bare breasts with her hands while rocking a bikini bottom while surrounded by the ocean and palm trees. Of course, her fashion sensibilities shine further with a silver bracelet and zebra-print heels. “Here’s a little series I call ‘Rub on ya titties,’” she began her caption of the stunning maternity photos.

She added, “in honor of my first pregnancy, embracing motherhood like a g, and the magic that this body made! Baby RZA… he in there not having a clue how nuts his mama is, or how obsessed he was bout to make me #maternityshoot2022 #tobecontinued.” The photos arrived on the heels of RZA’s first birthday, which she and her partner A$AP Rocky celebrated in fashion. Friends and peers slid into the comment section of her post with nothing but praise for the photos.

Rihanna & A$AP Rocky Celebrate RZA’s Birthday

It was only in the past week that we learned the Wu-Tang Clan-inspired name of Rihanna and A$AP Rocky’s firstborn child. Over the weekend, Rocky shared a series of photos to celebrate RZA’s birthday, many of which featured cameos from Rihanna as well. However, the two are also readying for the birth of their second child together. Although Rihanna or Rocky revealed a due date, she revealed her baby bump during the Super Bowl in February.

During a recent interview with British Vogue, Rihanna opened up about becoming a mother. “It's everything. You really don't remember life before, that's the craziest thing ever," she said. "You literally try to remember it – and there are photos of my life before – but the feeling, the desires, the things that you enjoy, everything, you just don't identify with it because you don't even allow yourself mentally to get that far, because…. Because it doesn't matter." Check out Rihanna’s gorgeous maternity photos above and sound off with your thoughts in the comment section below.
