Rihanna is not just a Grammy Award-winning singer but also a proud mother to her 10-month-old son with her partner, A$AP Rocky.
On Tuesday, the Barbadian star took to Instagram to share some adorable pictures of her son’s first Easter, and it is heartwarming to see how much he enjoyed the holiday.
In the first set of pictures, the young boy can be seen teething on an Easter egg, wearing a diamond necklace, and sitting on the grass outside with a sparkling bunny stuffed toy and some plastic Easter eggs surrounding him.

Behind him, a few real-life furry lop-eared mates keep watch. Later, he is shown inside, sitting down while sporting a cute pair of bunny ears.
Rihanna captioned, “Eastuh!!!” and fans couldn’t help but gush over the heartwarming photos.
The 35-year-old businesswoman also shared pictures of her son holding the book “How to Catch the Easter Bunny” (available on Amazon) while sitting on the grass outside with colorful Easter eggs, toy animals, baskets, and even a group of actual bunnies behind him.
One adorable snap showed her son softly caressing a gray bunny on the head.
“Look at heeeeee!!!!” Rihanna wrote in the caption, adding, “shot by de birFday gal herself @mdollas11 !”

In a cute video of the singer she posted earlier this month, the soon-to-be mother of two, whose face is off-screen, is seen cradling her baby boy in one hand while wearing a black sports bra from her brand Savage X Fenty and captioned, “Look who don’t want mommy to workout.”
The young child wiggles while grinning broadly and watching a program in the distance as his mother begs, “Please.”
In May last year, Rihanna and A$AP Rocky welcomed their son, whose name wasn’t disclosed. They are currently expecting their second child together.

The megastar made a stunning announcement about her second pregnancy during her performance at the Super Bowl in February.
Since then, she has made several public appearances, including performing at the 2023 Oscars, and established herself as the queen of maternity fashion.
In a recent interview with British Vogue for their March issue, Rihanna talked candidly about giving birth to her 10-month-old son.
She described the experience as “beautiful” but noted that it was a “headf**k” because she went from being one person to two.

The pop icon explained, “Essentially, from one person, I became two. You walk into the hospital as a couple and leave as a family of three. It’s nuts.”
Rihanna reminisced about the early days of parenthood and noted that the “first few days are insane,” saying, “And oh, my gosh, those first days are insane. You don’t sleep. At all. Not even if you wanted to. We came home, cold turkey, had no one. It was just us as parents and our baby. Man, you’re a zombie for the most part.”
The singer added, “You’re just going through the motions and even then you’re so paranoid. Because you’re like: they trusted us to come home with this baby? No doctors, no nurses, we’re just… going home?”
However, despite the challenges, Rihanna and A$AP Rocky have been able to come together as parents.

She talked about parenting with A$AP and how having a baby has brought them closer together, saying, “We have to be on the same page, but we’ve always kind of had that in our relationship. Everything changes when you have a baby but I wouldn’t say it’s done anything but made us closer.”
Rihanna also joked about being “on the sidelines” while her son and partner are bonding.

She quipped, “I’m just sitting on the sidelines when they’re together. I’m literally the girl trying to get into the boys club, waiting for my turn. He is obsessed with his father. And I’m like, ‘Didn’t I give birth to you? What is going on?’”
The singer continued, “The second Rocky makes eye contact with him he is on fire. The whole thing they say about sons and moms, it’s a myth. Sons and fathers is crazy. I realized that the validation that you really need as a boy is from your father.”
