Rihanna and A$AP Rocky reveal inspiration behind their son's name
Rihanna and A$AP Rocky have used their son's first birthday to confirm the inspiration behind his name.
The Umbrella singer, 35, and her rapper partner, 34, had kept their boy's moniker secret for nearly a year after his birth on May 13 last year, but after a birth certificate showed he is called RZA Athelston Mayers the couple have stated it was a tribute to the Wu-Tang Clan leader.
A$AP said on Instagram in a post on Saturday (May 13) that marked his son's first birthday: "WU TANG IZ 4 DA CHUREN' HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY TO MY 1st BORN . RZA."
The Sundress rapper - born Rakim Athelaston Mayers - also shared a carousel of images of his life with Rihanna and their son, including a snap of the pregnant singer kissing his cheek while their son smiled at the camera.
Rihanna and A$AP's second child is due to be born within days, and Rihanna recently hinted they were about to be married by tweeting "shout outz 2 the bridal party. here come de bride #idoKARL#METgala2023."
The pair started dating in 2020 after having been linked professionally as early as 2013.
