Rihanna just reminded the world that even in the most intense moments of life—like, you know, pushing a whole human out of your body—she’s still that girl.
On International Women’s Day, the 38-year-old music icon, fashion mogul, and certified cool mom took a trip down memory lane, sharing some never-before-seen pics of her in the delivery room. Because why post throwback vacation photos when you can casually flex about bringing life into the world like a boss?
In the photos, Rih is chilling in a hospital bed, casually cuddling her newborns like she didn’t just complete the ultimate endurance test. The first pic is from the birth of RZA (who is now two years old), and naturally, she’s rocking some luxurious jewelry—because even contractions won’t stop the shine. The second pic, from when she welcomed Riot (now one), features Rihanna serving postpartum glamour in pink sunglasses.
“By far the most powerful thing I’ve ever done as a woman… my little miracles,” she captioned the post. Then, in peak Rihanna fashion, she added, “And yes, I gave birth in pearls and sunglasses… don’t ask, a lot was happening.”
Rihanna, as we all know, shares her adorable babies with rapper and forever hype man A$AP Rocky. The couple recently had a courthouse moment together when Rocky was on trial for felony assault. Their presence must have worked some magic because, days later, Rocky was found not guilty.
Moral of the story: Rihanna does everything with style, including childbirth, and we will never be on her level.
