Rihanna and her daughter, Rocki, wore matching pink baby-doll dresses to celebrate the little girl’s first birthday, as shown in an Instagram photo shared Sunday (Sept. 13) by family friend Melissa Forde.
“Happyyy Birthdayyy Rocki Irish I can’t believe Auntie’s baby is alreadyyy a yearrr,” Forde wrote in the caption. “Bday twinning wit your beautiful mama and my sestahhh @badgalriri.”
The photo shows Rihanna holding and kissing Rocki’s head. Additional pictures in the post reveal a birthday party setup featuring a play space with colorful balloons and a carousel.
Rihanna welcomed her third child on Sept. 13, 2025, with partner A$AP Rocky. The couple also shares sons RZA and Riot Rose, and announced Rocki’s arrival on Instagram less than two weeks after her birth.
Before the birth, Rihanna debuted her baby bump on the 2025 Met Gala red carpet. While the couple did not disclose the baby’s gender in advance, Rocky told Elle last year that they were praying for a girl.
Rocki made her modeling debut in April by appearing with her mother on the cover of W Magazine at 7 months old. Rihanna joked at the time that the infant outshined her and asked who the high-fashion baby was.
Rihanna has topped the Billboard Hot 100 14 times and the Billboard 200 twice, though she has not released an album since 2016’s ANTI. Rocky recently offered an update on new music by telling fans that she is currently working in the studio.
