ASAP Rocky is proving he’s a “fun dad” after making a joke about the sex of his and Rihanna’s third child.
The rapper, 36, supported Rihanna, 37, at the new Smurfs movie’s world premiere in Brussels on Saturday, June 28. While attending the event, Rocky spoke to Entertainment Tonight’s Kevin Frazier about the couple expanding their family.
“We’re going to be like the Wayans family,” Rocky joked to the TV personality. “I mean love is beautiful and it’s just spreading it.”
The camera then panned over to Rihanna, who was on the opposite side of the carpet.
“Is that the girl you’ve been waiting for?” Frazier asked, presumably referring to Rihanna’s pregnancy, to which Rocky smiled and replied, “It is, man, it is.”
Rocky also held up a Smurfette doll, which Rihanna voices in the new children’s film — which hits theaters on July 18.
“Right here!” he said. “You know what I’m saying.”
At the premiere, Rihanna stunned in a baby blue custom Chanel top and skirt which was embellished with sequins, crystals and feathers. The singer proudly showed off her growing bump as she posed for photos.
Rihanna and Rocky started dating in 2021 after being friends for years. The couple share two sons: RZA, 2, and Riot, 22 months. Earlier this year, Rihanna and Rocky revealed at the Met Gala that they are expecting baby No. 3.
“It feels amazing, you know,” Rocky told the Associated Press in May after news broke of Rihanna’s pregnancy. “It’s time that we show the people what we was cooking up. And I’m glad everybody’s happy for us ’cause we definitely happy, you know.”
That same month, Rocky appeared on Late Night With Seth Meyers where the topic of potential baby names came up.
“Your first two kids have ‘R’ names, obviously you and Rihanna have ‘R’ names,” Meyers said. “Is this a lock that the third will have an ‘R’ name, do you think?”
Rocky confirmed that was “for sure” the plan.
Rihanna previously shared that the idea of having a large family was something she envisioned for herself — if she was fortunate enough to make it happen.

“[I’ll have] as many kids as God wants me to have,” she told Elle in April 2024. “I don’t know what God wants, but I would go for more than two. I would try for my girl. But of course, if it’s another boy, it’s another boy.”
Rocky has echoed similar sentiments, praising Rihanna as the “perfect” partner for him.
“It’s crazy how we find balance with our chaotic schedules,” he said in an August 2024 interview with Billboard. “[The relationship] is going great. I don’t think there’s a more perfect person because when the schedules are hectic, she’s very understanding of that. And when the schedule’s freed up, that’s when you get to spend [the] most time together. It’s all understanding and compatibility.”
