LOS ANGELES: Rihanna rang in her 38th birthday on Friday, February 20, with an intimate celebration orchestrated by her longtime partner, ASAP Rocky.
The 37-year-old rapper whisked the “Diamonds” singer away to Giorgio Baldi, a renowned Italian restaurant in Santa Monica, California, where the couple enjoyed a private dinner in a space specially prepared for the occasion.
Fan-shared images captured the Fenty founder arriving in style, wearing a sheer black dress paired with matching heels and a plush faux fur jacket.
The ambiance was carefully curated, with Rocky reportedly arranging for the private dining area to be festooned with silver balloons forming a “Happy Birthday” greeting, alongside floating balloons in red, white, green, and blue.
The romantic evening comes on the heels of a lighthearted moment when the “Testing” artist found himself caught off guard by a curious student.
During a segment for “Celebrity Substitute,” a young student inquired whether he and Rihanna—who share three children: sons RZA, 3, and Riot, 2, as well as 3-month-old daughter Rocki—had officially tied the knot.
Rather than provide a direct answer, the rapper responded with playful deflection, remarking that the student had posed an intriguing question and suggesting that the interviewer had succeeded in putting him on the spot.
Though the couple has never explicitly confirmed or denied marriage speculation, both have occasionally referred to one another using spousal terms in public settings.
During the same interview, Rocky offered a glimpse into their family life, describing a home filled with diverse musical influences.
He noted that his children are exposed to an eclectic mix of genres, ranging from the timeless catalog of Michael Jackson to classic rock staples like The Beatles, as well as a healthy dose of reggae. He emphasized that music remains a central and varied element of their household.
