Marking the First Baby Bump in Super Bowl History

After concealing her stomach for months, Rihanna gave the big reveal of expecting her second child during the Super Bowl LVII Apple Music Halftime Show. The expertly-choreographed and legendary show would come seven months ahead of the arrival of Rihanna and Rocky’s second son, Riot Rose, now 20 months old.
