Rihanna is going to be a mama!
The singer and fashion icon is expecting her first child with boyfriend A$AP Rocky.
The Fenty Beauty founder revealed the exciting news with a glimpse of her glowing baby bump during a romantic stroll in New York City over the weekend.
In the photos obtained by People, the soon-to-be parents were seen in A$AP Rocky's hometown of Harlem while holding hands on their snowy outdoor walk.
Rihanna, 33, looked stunning in a long pink coat that was unbuttoned to show off her pregnancy body, while her doting beau kissed her on the cheek in one of the wholesome snaps. The "Love On The Brain" songstress' growing belly was also adorned in a gold cross and colorful jeweled necklaces.
The gushing couple — who were confirmed to be dating in November 2020 — has previously been outspoken about their desire to have children.

In March 2020, Rihanna opened up to British Vogue about her plans for a family, spilling that she hoped to have three or four children within the next 10 years, whether she is in a relationship or not.
"I feel like society makes me want to feel like, 'Oh, you got it wrong …' They diminish you as a mother if there's not a dad in your kids' lives," Rihanna told the outlet at the time. "But the only thing that matters is happiness; that's the only healthy relationship between a parent and a child. That's the only thing that can raise a child truly, is love."
The "Fashion Killa" rapper, 33, also hinted at being a dad back in May 2021, saying that having a family is "in my destiny, absolutely," as OK! previously learned.
"I think I'd be an incredible, remarkably overall amazing dad," he stated at the time. "I would have a very fly child. Very."
He also spilled that Rihanna is "the love of my life," calling her "the one," as he confidently added: "When you know, you know."
As OK! reported, sources began speculating earlier this month that a proposal could be in the cards for the lovebirds sometime soon, as an insider insisted it was just "a matter of time" before the rap mogul pops the question. "Rocky absolutely feels that Rihanna is the perfect person for him, and he can’t imagine his life without her," the source concluded.
As the couple appears to breaking the internet with news of their bun in the oven, Khloé Kardashian took to her Instagram Story to gush over the power couple. Sharing a close-up of Rihanna's glowing belly, the KUWTK alum wrote: "This makes me so happy," with a purple heart emoji.
