“When I found out I was pregnant, I thought to myself, ‘There’s no way I’m going to go shopping in no maternity aisle,’” Rihanna explained to Vogue’s Chioma Nnadi. “I’m sorry—it’s too much fun to get dressed up. I’m not going to let that part disappear because my body is changing.”
She continued: “I’m hoping that we were able to redefine what’s considered ‘decent’ for pregnant women. My body is doing incredible things right now, and I’m not going to be ashamed of that. This time should feel celebratory. Because why should you be hiding your pregnancy?”
About Her Relationship
She later added, “What I love the most about us? Transparency with everything: how we’re feeling, what our goals are, what our fears and insecurities are. The vulnerability to be able to say what you feel about each other.”
The latter sentiment is paramount given the tough but beautiful task of bringing a child into this world and rearing them in addition to building and running multiple global empires. And while the “Rude Boy” singer has been “able to manage” most of her pregnancy symptoms, balance is one challenge she’s still admittedly trying to get a good grasp on.
