Rihanna confirms she's pregnant with second child following Super Bowl halftime show

After singer Rihanna performed her some of greatest hits on Sunday night's Super Bowl halftime show, fans gushed over her performance, her red ensemble — and her accompanying baby bump.

As the 34-year-old rubbed her stomach during the performance of her song "B**** Better Have My Money," the Internet responded, with both her name and the word "Pregnant" trending on Twitter within minutes.

Now, a rep for the singer has confirmed to CBS News that she is pregnant with baby number two.

The singer, who has also achieved widespread success for both her beauty and lingerie brands, sported a custom jumpsuit and bustier by Loewe, and a floor-length puffer from Alaïa — both left open to reveal her baby bump.

Rihanna welcomed her first child with her partner, rapper A$AP Rocky, in May. They have chosen to not disclosed their child's name, nor have they posted extensively on social media. They gave fans their first glimpse of son on TikTok in December.
