Rihanna has openly expressed her love for motherhood since growing her family. In a February interview with Harper’s Bazaar, she shared that “every decision” she makes now is centered around her children.
“So I have a weird resentment with the things that I love. You almost feel like something is always suffering for you to show up somewhere,” she explained. “And even when you show up there, it’s not 100 percent because there’s something else on the wheel. It’s actually given me a lot more self-guilt. I don’t like letting people down, but I also know that most of that is me letting myself down, which means something has to change, but everything is on the wheel at all times.”
“I have to keep reminding myself that I asked for this, I love this,” she added of motherhood. “I try to figure out a balance so that I can feel fulfilled when I show up to something, so I can feel I don’t have any guilt.”
The “Umbrella” singer also spoke about her sons’ different personalities.
“RZA is just an empath,” she said of her eldest. “He’s so magical. He loves music. He loves melody. He loves books. He loves water. Bath time, swimming, pool, beach, anything.”
Riot, meanwhile, is “hilarious,” Rihanna said.
“When he wakes up, he starts to squeal, scream. Not in a crying way. He just wants to sing,” she added about her second child. “And I’m like, ‘Okay, here we go!’ He’s my alarm in the morning! He’s not taking no for an answer from anyone. I don’t know where he came from, dude.”
Rihanna also told Harper’s Bazaar that the “greatest thing” about Rocky “is seeing him be a dad.”
“I’m annoyed because my sons sometimes just live for him more than they live for me,” she joked. “And I’m like, ‘Did you know who cooked you? Do you know who pushed you out?’ And they love him, but when I see it, oh, it’s the best.”
