A$AP Rocky, the 37-year-old rapper, maintains an air of mystery surrounding his marital status. In the Feb. 4 episode of Celebrity Substitute, Julian Shapiro-Barnum's series that places celebrities in public school classrooms to engage in unscripted conversations with children, a young student posed an intriguing question: whether Rocky is married to Rihanna.
"That's a fascinating query you've posed," Rocky replied, choosing not to reveal his marital status directly. He then engaged in a playful banter with the student, inquiring if he would prefer Rihanna to take his place for the day. "You're dreaming of Rihanna, huh? Well, today's your lucky day."
Rocky, whose real name is Rakim Mayers, has been in a relationship with Rihanna since 2020. The couple went public with their romance in November of that year and now share three children, including sons RZA Athelston, 3½, and Riot Rose, 2, as well as daughter Rocki Irish, who was born last September.
During the episode, Rocky also spoke about nurturing his children in a music-filled home, explaining that he and Rihanna introduce them to a diverse range of genres. "From Michael Jackson to the Beatles, reggae, psychedelic music... it's a veritable smorgasbord," he said. He added that music is a constant presence in their household.
Earlier this month, Rocky reflected on his first meeting with Rihanna during an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. He recalled that he wasn't yet famous and was struggling to get into a New York City nightclub when they crossed paths.
Currently celebrating the success of his fourth studio album, Don’t Be Dumb, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart, Rocky received public support from Rihanna, who called him her "baby daddy" in a celebratory social media post.
