Nearly a year after Rihanna and A$AP Rocky welcomed their first, his birth certificate revealing his name has been obtained by Daily Mail.
The celebrity couple ‘Rihanna’ Robyn Fenty and A$AP Rocky have reportedly named their baby boy, RZA Athelston Mayers.
RZA is the name of Wu-Tang Clan’s leader.
The Fenty Beauty founder gave birth to her son on 13 May 2022.
Earlier this year, in a cover story for British Vogue’s March 2023 issue, Rihanna detailed how she’s fiercely protected her baby boy from the spotlight.
“I just went straight into protective mode. Like there wasn’t even time for rage,” Rihanna told British Vogue. “As parents it just feels so icky, like a violation.”
The “Diamonds” singer and Rocky came together to discuss how they wanted to handle photos of their son potentially being leaked to the press. She recalled: “As we were speaking, we knew they were making calls and deals.”
Then, the couple sprung into action. She decided to send some candid photos from her camera roll to an unnamed blog and joined TikTok – where she posted a now-viral video of her baby boy gurgling, smiling and playing with his mother’s phone.
It’s the thing you never want to happen,” Rihanna said, as she reflected on the possibility that the world could see photos of her son without her permission.
As parents, Rihanna said she believes it’s within their right to introduce their child on their own terms.
