Rihanna has an important message for the world: being a boy mom is not for the faint of heart. In fact, it’s basically like trying to win gold at the Mom Olympics.
The 36-year-old queen of slayage, also known as the “Diamonds” diva, took to social media on a fine Friday night (September 27) to drop a nugget of parenting reality, served with a side of cuteness. Her oldest son, RZA, whom she shares with rapper A$AP Rocky, decided to show off his acrobatic skills—because who needs Cirque du Soleil when you have a two-year-old?
In a short clip that’ll make any parent laugh, cry, and possibly need a nap, RZA transforms into a mini Houdini, climbing out of his playpen like a seasoned escape artist on a mission. It wasn’t easy—he gave it a few good tries before finally launching himself onto the ottoman. From there, he made a mad dash for his holy grail: the sippy cup. Because in the toddler world, hydration is key to fueling the chaos.
Rihanna, clearly over the shenanigans, dropped a caption that every mom could feel in her soul: “Being a boy mom is an Olympic sport 🤦🏾♀️💙🤷🏿♀️.” Translation: Gold medals should be awarded for just making it through snack time without a meltdown.
And if you thought RZA’s talents stopped at parkour, guess again. Earlier this summer, the tiny superstar and his dad, A$AP Rocky, teamed up for a Savage X Fenty ad campaign, proving that even in diapers, this kid has better style than most of us.
Rihanna’s life? A non-stop adventure filled with toddler stunts, high fashion, and enough parenting feats to make any Olympic athlete feel lazy. Keep crushing it, RiRi.
