Rihanna returns to the red carpet with A$AP Rocky, marking her comeback after welcoming their third child.
As she makes her comeback to the red carpet, Rihanna is gleaming like a diamond. The "Umbrella" singer made her first appearance on the red carpet since giving birth to her daughter Rocki Irish in September on November 3 at the 2025 CFDA Fashion Awards in New York City. She seized the occasion to spend a sweet date night with A$AP Rocky.
Rihanna wore an Alaïa ensemble for the event, which included a pair of flowing white trousers and a black trenchcoat that was tightened at the waist. She accessorized with a pair of Dyne diamond earrings to add glitz.
A$AP, who received the 2025 CFDA Fashion Icon Award during the event, wore a Chanel suit over a yellow V-neck sweater and black and white dress shoes.

The two laughed and held hands as they posed for photos on the red carpet during the date night. At one point, A$AP (actual name Rakim Mayers) kissed Rihanna on the cheek.
A$AP—who also has two boys with Rihanna, Riot, and RZA, three—made headlines less than a week before they arrived at the CFDA Fashion Awards by referring to himself as her husband, possibly confirming rumors that he had married the Fenty Beauty founder.
"Being a father and a partner and a loving husband in my family is what makes me really, really happy,” in an interview that was published on October 29, he informed Perfect Magazine. "That’s what honestly does get me going: being able to express myself creatively, being able to be a family man and being able to be an artisan."
The 37-year-old made a suggestion that he might have married Rihanna the previous month when he asked Elle on September 24: "How do you know I am not already a husband?"
The rapper of "Praise the Lord," however, remained silent, saying, “I’m still not gonna confirm it.”
Whatever term best sums up his relationship with Rihanna, A$AP has made it clear that his daughter is his greatest achievement of the year.
“That's my favorite thing I created this year,” a month ago, he disclosed to Complex. “Shout out to Rocki Irish, man.”
