Rihanna and ASAP Rocky’s son RZA is nurturing his foreign language skills at an early age — or at least trying to!
The pregnant “Umbrella” singer took to Instagram on Thursday, July 3 to share several images of her two sons, RZA, 3, and Riot, 23 months, as they embarked on a family road trip.
In the photos, RZA was in the backseat holding a French language workbook that is designed for children aged 5 and 6. RZA’s face was obscured by the book, while brother Riot could be seen relaxing with a pacifier in his mouth.
“They so over me on this lil road trip,” Rihanna, 37, captioned the post. For his part, A$AP Rocky, 36, pointed out RZA’s workbook, commenting, “RZA man learning French.” He added three crying laughing emojis alongside the comment.

Rihanna and Rocky, who started dating in 2021 after being friends for years, are expecting their third child. They revealed the news at the Met Gala in May.
“It feels amazing, you know,” Rocky told the Associated Press of Rihanna’s pregnancy at the time. “It’s time that we show the people what we was cooking up. And I’m glad everybody’s happy for us ’cause we definitely happy, you know.”
Rihanna previously spoke candidly about how much she loved seeing the rapper as a father.
In an interview with Harper’s Bazaar in February, Rihanna told the outlet that the “greatest thing” about her partner “is seeing him be a dad.”
However, she joked she has one minor gripe with how well he’s handling fatherhood: how much the kids adore him.
“I’m annoyed because my sons sometimes just live for him more than they live for me,” she said. “And I’m like, ‘Did you know who cooked you? Do you know who pushed you out?’ And they love him, but when I see it, oh, it’s the best.”

Rocky also has a lot of love and respect for Rihanna, and has complimented her in several interviews — including when speaking to Billboard in August 2024.
“[The relationship] is going great,” the “Purple Swag” singer said. “I don’t think there’s a more perfect person because when the schedules are hectic, she’s very understanding of that. And when the schedule’s freed up, that’s when you get to spend [the] most time together. It’s all understanding and compatibility.”
Speaking to GQ in 2021, Rocky shared a similar sentiment as he confirmed their relationship and described the singer as “The One.”
“So much better when you got The One,” the rapper gushed to the outlet. “She amounts to probably, like, a million of the other ones. … I think when you know, you know. She’s The One.”
