Rihanna has always wanted to raise her children in Barbados but now feels that plan is not feasible.
The famous singer, who hails from Barbados, possesses a jet-setting lifestyle and homes in California, Barbados and London, as such, she is not sure of where she will raise her first child with popular rapper A$AP Rocky.
While admitting to U.S. Vogue magazine, she said: “That gets difficult to say. Rocky asked me recently if I had a dream place, where would it be? I told him home, Barbados. I always imagined it being that way. But realistically it probably won’t be.”
Rihanna also expects her mother and Rocky’s mother to be the first ports of call for childcare, though she has unwillingly placed a night nurse on hold upon her friends’ recommendation.
She added: “I’m sure that will be helpful, but they’re going to have to fight my mom, because I can’t imagine anyone telling her how to put her grandkid to bed.”
During the interview, she recalled the first time she took Rocky home to Barbados to meet her family during the 2020 holidays.
She said: “My mother has a really good read on people. She observes first and then she’ll move slowly. I guess I’m like that too.
“There are some guys that I’ve dated that she won’t even look at to this day. But she was charmed by him from the jump.”
Rihanna and Rocky began dating in 2020 and announced their pregnancy news in late January.
The interview was given by Rihanna before A$AP Rocky was arrested at LAX airport after spending time in Barbados with Rihanna over a shooting in 2021.
Rocky was detained briefly and was later released on $550,000 bail. He is facing charges that border on assault with a deadly weapon and could face up to 14 years in prison if convicted.
