WASHINGTON — Rihanna brought an extra special plus one to the Met Gala on Monday. 

The singer unveiled her baby bump during fashion’s biggest night. Her personal photographer, Miles Diggs, posted a photo on Instagram before the event with her bump on full display. 

A$AP Rocky, with whom she shares two sons, was one of the night’s hosts, alongside Pharrell Williams, Lewis Hamilton and Coleman Domingo. The rapper officially confirmed the news to media outlets at the event after reporters began congratulating him. 

“It feels amazing, you know,” A$AP Rocky told reporters. “It’s time that we show the people what we was cooking up. And I’m glad everybody’s happy for us ’cause we definitely happy, you know.”

“Honestly, it’s a blessing nonetheless,” Rocky told the AP. “Because you know how like some people in other situations at times can be envious of other people. But we’ve been seeing love for the most part. And we real receptive to that and appreciate that, you know what I mean? That’s love. Love is love.”

The night’s theme is based on the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s spring exhibit, “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.” It is the first Met Gala to focus exclusively on Black designers and the first in more than two decades to have a theme on menswear.
