Barbadian singer Rihanna is said to be expecting her first child with her current love interest A$ap Rocky.

The superstar who made an appearance in her homeland this week, where she was honoured one of the “National Hero of Barbados”, was allegedly spotted with a baby bump.

According to MTO News, a source revealed the “rude boy” crooner’s baby bump was initially spotted when she was exiting the private jet she arrived in at Barbados earlier.

“Rihanna is pregnant, she has a huge belly and it’s showing. I’m so excited” the source told MTO News.

Another source revealed that employees were informed not to drink or smoke within the environment as she aims toward bringing her baby to a “healthy environment”. 

“Employees were informed in their home that it is not allowed to drink or smoke. Rihanna is pregnant and wants to bring her baby to a healthy environment,” the second source said.

Rihanna is yet to confirm or deny the speculation.
