A$AP Rocky Proposes to Rihanna Moments After Birth of Their Third Child in Intimate, Emotional Setting
In a deeply moving and unexpected moment, A$AP Rocky proposed to longtime partner Rihanna just minutes after the birth of their third child—a baby girl named Rocki Irish Mayers—on September 13, 2025.
The proposal took place in a private delivery room at a Los Angeles hospital, where family and medical staff bore witness to what one nurse later described as “the most beautiful thing I’ve seen in 20 years of delivering babies.”
An Unforgettable Moment of Love and Life
As Rihanna cradled their newborn daughter, Rocky quietly stepped forward. He had carried the engagement ring with him throughout the labor, waiting for the perfect moment to ask the most important question of his life.
Dropping to one knee beside the hospital bed, he presented a custom-designed 15-carat emerald-cut diamond ring by Lorraine Schwartz, engraved with the initials of their three children—RZA, Riot, and Rocki. Valued at over $2 million, the ring was as symbolic as it was stunning.
Fighting back emotion, Rocky said:
> “Ri, from the day we met, you’ve been my muse, my partner, my everything. You’ve given me RZA, Riot, and now this beautiful girl. You’ve made me a father three times over—now let me make you my wife forever.”
Rihanna, still emotional from childbirth, gasped before nodding through tears. “Yes, Rocky. A thousand times, yes,” she replied.
The couple embraced with their newborn daughter between them, surrounded by close family members, including Rihanna’s mother, Monica, who captured a brief clip of the proposal on her phone.
The World Reacts: A Viral Celebration of Love
Shortly after a fan account shared the grainy video online, it went viral—amassing over 50 million views within the first 24 hours. Social media platforms were flooded with congratulatory messages, with hashtags like #RockyProposesRiRi and #MakeYouMyWifeForever trending across X (formerly Twitter), TikTok, and Instagram.
Celebrities were quick to join in the celebration.
Beyoncé posted: “This is love personified. Congratulations, family. ❤️”
Cardi B, who had visited earlier that day with gifts for the newborn, wrote: “Y’all got me crying over here! That’s how you do it, Rocky!”
Drake, known for his history with Rihanna, added humor to the moment: “Bro, you set the bar way too high. Congrats, though!”
More Than a Proposal—A Public Symbol of Partnership and Growth
For many, the moment transcended celebrity gossip. Fans and relationship experts alike noted the emotional weight and timing of the proposal—not only as a gesture of love but as a testament to the strength and unity of a couple who have grown together through personal evolution and public scrutiny.
Their daughter, Rocki Irish Mayers, was born healthy at 7 pounds, 2 ounces. Her name is said to be a tribute to both her father’s stage name and Rihanna’s paternal heritage.
Now engaged, the couple has not yet announced a wedding date, but sources close to them say they plan to hold a private ceremony sometime in 2026.
As the world continues to celebrate this joyful chapter, it’s clear that for Rihanna and A$AP Rocky, love isn’t just in the spotlight—it’s the foundation of a growing legacy.
