In a recent interview, Rihanna shared her struggles with motherhood. She spoke about a strange "resentment" towards things she loves. Rihanna said career choices now need careful thought. Her kids are her main focus.
"Every choice I make is about them," Rihanna stated. "But the things I love take away from them." This creates a "weird resentment." She feels something suffers when she shows up somewhere. Showing up is not 100% because of other priorities. This gives her more guilt. Rihanna dislikes letting people down, especially herself. Something has to change since "everything is on the wheel all the time."
Rihanna and ASAP Rocky have two sons together. RZA, their first son, was born in 2022. At the Super Bowl LVII Halftime Show, she announced her second pregnancy. Riot Rose was born in 2023.
Rihanna also spoke about how motherhood changed her style. She misses the "fun" parts of fashion. "Getting dressed is a fight," she said. "Now, everything is logical." It has to be easy and fast. She tries not to overthink, but leaving the house is hard. How much energy is needed to get ready? Doing hair, make-up, and finding an outfit takes effort. "You go through a fog," she said. "Fashion is so much fun, and I miss the fun."
