Before Rihanna, 35, welcomes her second child with boyfriend A$AP Rocky, 34, the singer and entrepreneur is taking a moment to celebrate her motherhood journey thus far by sharing previously unreleased pics from when she was pregnant with her first child, RZA, 1.

In a new slideshow shared on Instagram, the Fenty Beauty founder can be seen posing topless and wearing black bikini bottoms in what appears to be a tropical setting, with her growing baby bump in full view. 

The second photo allows us to see a front view of her baby bump, where she appears to be donning a gold accessory. In the caption, RiRi wrote, “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.”

Hollywood celebs flooded the comments section with words of admiration. For instance, singer Chloe Bailey wrote, “I’m obsessed wow omg,” with a couple of heart-eye emojis. Former Fifth Harmony member Lauren Jauregui also commented, “This is so beautiful mamaaa.”

The “Work” singer has shared pics of her growing baby bump before on social media, but for this one, she made sure to turn up the heat. Just last week, the new mom posted a photo of herself celebrating her second pregnancy, where she can be seen posing in her very own Savage X Fenty underwear set and her growing baby bump is on display. “It’s giving…call HR!!” Rihanna wrote along with the hashtag, “#5yearsofSAVAGEX.”

Oh na na, what’s her name? Rihanna, the queen of maternity photoshoots.
