Rihanna’s infant daughter Rocki appeared on the dual‑cover of W Magazine’s April 2026 Pop Issue, one image showing Rihanna cradling Rocki and the other featuring the singer in a Chanel feathered jacket. Dior’s creative director helped design a couture diaper and a miniature floral headpiece for the shoot, while the issue also highlighted the pair’s cosmetics launch in India. The couple’s Instagram feed continued to showcase new Savage Fenty looks and a “Fine AF Friday” style roundup that singled out Rihanna’s cotton set. In early May, an AR-15‑style rifle was fired at their Beverly Crest home; no one was injured. The alleged shooter, Ivanna Ortiz, was arrested, later ordered to undergo a mental‑competency evaluation, and her trial was paused pending a June hearing. A$AP Rocky described the attack as “scary” and “unprovoked,” saying it robbed his family of peace. He also spoke at length about fatherhood, noting the humor in the births of RZA (4), Riot (2) and Rocki (8 months) and emphasizing a “light‑hearted” approach to parenting. Family celebrations included a slime‑filled fourth‑birthday party for RZA in New York (May 13) and a Spider‑Man‑themed third‑birthday party for Riot on 1 August, captured in a video shared by Rihanna’s sister‑in‑law Nadia King. The couple also marked the New York Knicks’ historic NBA‑Finals comeback with impromptu street‑court play and playful PDA in Manhattan. A planned €1.25 million villa purchase in Epinal, France, was cancelled after a judicial seizure triggered a contractual retraction. Throughout, the family has remained largely private, residing in a $14 million Beverly Hills mansion, while media speculation about a possible fourth child persists. In July, the pair were spotted in New York during a heatwave, showcasing contrasting fashion styles while traveling in a red Ferrari.
