A$AP Rocky generously dropped a little family photo album of him, Rihanna, and their one-year-old son RZA on Father’s Day. Rihanna’s boyfriend, with whom she’s currently expecting her second child, posted the carousel on Instagram with a simple caption: “EVERYDAY FATHERS DAY ️” Photos in it included new shots of Rihanna and RZA together, along with a video of RZA being adorable.
While Rihanna didn’t post her own tribute to Rocky yesterday, she did comment on his photo. She wrote of two boys, “The Mayers boys stole my whole heart! Happy Father’s Day nerd.” Rocky’s real name is Rakim Athelaston Mayers.
Rihanna spoke in the winter to British Vogue about the bond that Rocky and RZA have.“I’m just sitting on the sidelines when they’re together,” she said. “I’m literally the girl trying to get into the boys club, waiting for my turn. He is obsessed with his father. And I’m like: ‘Didn’t I give birth to you? What is going on?’ Their connection is undeniable. The second Rocky makes eye contact with him he is on fire. The whole thing they say about sons and moms, it’s a myth. Sons and fathers is crazy. I realized that the validation that you really need as a boy is from your father.”
Of her and Rocky’s relationship, Rihanna said, “We’re best friends with a baby. We have to be on the same page, but we’ve always kind of had that in our relationship. Everything changes when you have a baby but I wouldn’t say it’s done anything but made us closer.”
