Rihanna and A$AP Rocky are parents again! TMZ reported on Monday that the couple recently welcomed their second child — a boy — though neither Rih nor A$AP has confirmed the news. The tabloid claims the baby’s as-yet unknown name starts with “R,” and if the parents follow whatever formula they went with when naming their first son, RZA Athelston Mayer, it’s probably unguessable.

Back in February, Rihanna hinted at her pregnancy in a high-profile-yet-chill way: She wore a red jumpsuit (unzipped to showcase her ambiguous bump) for her Super Bowl halftime show, which she performed on a platform suspended 60 feet above the ground. Since her reps confirmed that she was expecting another kid, she’s taken every opportunity to remind us that maternity dressing can be sexy and adventurous, just like she did the first time around.

Speaking of, RZA only turned 1 in May and has already appeared on the cover of Vogue. That’s no small accomplishment, though Baby Rihanna II made in-utero appearances at the Oscars, the Met Gala, and in Pharrell Williams’s inaugural Louis Vuitton campaign. Not that it’s a competition, but we can’t wait to see what else he will accomplish in his first year!
