Rihanna is never one to hold back, and this time, she’s firing back at critics of her children’s names after sharing rare photos from when she gave birth.

On March 8, in honor of International Women’s Day, the 37-year-old singer took to Instagram to post intimate photos from her birthing experience with sons RZA, 2, and Riot Rose, 19 months.

In her caption, she reflected on the profound journey of motherhood, writing:

“By far the most powerful thing I’ve ever done as a woman… my little miracles! #InternationalWomensDay.”

She also added a playful note about her unique birthing style:

“1- RZA 2- Riot Rose. And yes, I gave birth in pearls and sunglasses… don’t ask, a lot was happening.”

Rihanna Claps Back at a Critic

While many fans showered Rihanna with love and support, one person in the comments took issue with her sons’ names.

“I hate their names so bad,” the user commented.

Rihanna wasn’t about to let that slide. In true bad gal fashion, she fired back with a short but sharp reply:

“Ok, Tatiana,” she wrote, tagging the user directly.

The comment has since been deleted, but Rihanna’s response quickly went viral, with fans praising her no-nonsense attitude.

Rihanna on A$AP Rocky as a Father

Rihanna shares her two sons with A$AP Rocky, whom she has been with since 2020. In a recent Harper’s Bazaar interview, she gushed about Rocky’s role as a father, calling it one of the “greatest” things about him.

“The greatest thing is seeing him be a dad. His pureness. His charm.”

She also jokingly admitted that sometimes their kids seem to favor him over her:

“I’m annoyed because my sons sometimes just live for him more than they live for me. And I’m like, ‘Did you know who cooked you? Do you know who pushed you out?’ But when I see it, oh, it’s the best.”

RZA and Riot’s Unique Personalities

In the same interview, the Fenty Beauty mogul shared insights into her sons’ personalities, noting how RZA has a deep emotional and creative side:

“RZA is just an empath. He’s so magical. He loves music. He loves melody. He loves books. He loves water. Bath time, swimming, pool, beach, anything.”

Meanwhile, Riot Rose has already shown a lively and entertaining personality, taking after his superstar mom:

“He’s just hilarious. When he wakes up, he starts to squeal, scream. Not in a crying way. He just wants to sing. And I’m like, ‘Okay, here we go!’ He’s my alarm in the morning! He’s not taking no for an answer from anyone.”

Laughing about his energy, she jokingly added:

“I don’t know where he came from, dude.”
