The Umbrella hitmaker and the rapper, both 33, stunned in the snowy snaps while out for a walk in Harlem – where A$AP grew up.

The couple were all wrapped up in the cold apart from Rih’s bare belly, which peeped out of her long pink jacket.

The news comes just over a month after she dismissed pregnancy rumours by saying: “Y’all breed me every year dammit.”

Rihanna and A$AP have been together since late 2020, with the rapper even referring to her as “the One” in May of last year.

Speaking to GQ about their romance at the time, he called her the “love of my life” and said life was “so much better when you got ‘the One'”.

“She amounts to probably, like, a million of the other ones. I think when you know, you know. She’s the One,” he said.

He had also said fatherhood was “in my destiny, absolutely,” stating: “I think I’d be an incredible, remarkably overall amazing dad. I would have a very fly child. Very.”

Well, with Rihanna as that child’s mam, we predict he’s right.

A very big congratulations to them both.
