According to reports, the couple has named their second child Riot Rose Mayers. Rihanna found out she was expecting her second child only a few months after she welcomed her first son, RZA Athelston Mayers, on May 13, 2022

Fans were not too impressed about the second baby's name, "Where do they get these names?" remarked a commenter. While for others, it was typical for celebrities to choose unusual names for their children.

Rihanna has not given much away about her second baby, but during her interview with Vogue, where she spoke about the relaunch of the Fenty and Puma collaboration, she said, "This time around, we expanded our creations to kids, 'cause I selfishly want my boys in everything their dad and I wear or design."

However, while going through a mixture of emotions, Rihanna was excited about the challenge. After giving birth to her son, she realized the power of her body, so nothing felt impossible anymore. Instead, she felt compelled to push harder.

She also did not know that she would be pregnant with Riot at the Super Bowl, but even that did not deter her from giving her fans a performance to remember. Looking back at the initial announcement of the Super Bowl while dealing with her pregnancy, Rihanna said, "It was almost like an out-of-body experience."

Rihanna's fans had to wait a few months to see RZA's face and will continue to be patient for the debut of her second child.
