Rihanna has got some fresh new ink and she had the cutest little designers for her new body art.
The 38-year-old mogul – who responded to rumors she was fighting partner A$AP Rocky at the Met Gala – recently got a new tattoo designed by her young children.
Rihanna and Rocky, 37, share three children three and under including: three-year-old son RZA Athelston, two-year-old son Riot Rose, and seven-month-old daughter Rocky Irish.
The fresh ink is located on the back of her knee as it was abstract scribbles no doubt from one, if not both, of her older children.
Celebrity tattoo artist Keith Scott ‘Bang Bang’ McCurdy documented the session with the A-lister on Instagram.
The 40-year-old New York based artist even showed off the inspiration for the piece as Rihanna’s children’s scribbles were on a piece of paper with stickers from Nickelodeon animated series Paw Patrol on it.

She told Extra: ‘The babies are amazing. They’re all getting bigger, and I cannot take it. My sons – oh, my God! – their faces are changing. Their necks are getting longer. I love it.’
And Rocky said their children are as ‘cute as ever’, while RZA and Riot are ‘getting along’ better than he expected.
The rapper said: ‘I’m surprised that the older two getting along as much as they are, you know? Usually, you know, for them to be so close in age, they fight a lot, but… happy family.’
While he admitted their older sons occasionally get ‘a little jealous’ of their newborn sister, he made it clear there’s nothing but love in the household.
In 2023, Rihanna told Vogue her longtime partner, Rocky, is her ‘best friend’ and described motherhood as ‘everything’.
Rihanna said her first few months as a mother were a rollercoaster and described giving birth as a ‘head-f**k’, saying she couldn’t believe she entered the hospital pregnant and left with a baby.

The singer admitted that having a child has also made her re-evaluate as she described raising her son as one of the ‘scariest’ responsibilities ever in her life.
She said: ‘Raising a young Black man is one of the scariest responsibilities in life […] ‘You’re like, “What am I leaving my kids to? This is the planet they’re gonna be living on?”‘

In 2024, she spoke to Interview magazine about how ‘COVID sped up’ her relationship with Rocky.
‘Had it not been for COVID, we would’ve taken a lot more time to get comfortable with each other, to even know that we were ready,’ she explained.
Rihanna added that her current romance is different to anything she’s previously experienced, and she was always convinced that Rocky would become a ‘great dad’.
The award-winning star – who has previously dated Chris Brown and businessman Hassan Jameel – explained: ‘I let God lead and just let go. Because in previous relationships, I tried and tried and tried my best, and you still feel like it’s not enough.

‘So when someone sees you completely, and believes in you, and thinks you’re worthy of being the mother of their kids, it’s a great feeling. I felt the same about him.
‘I knew he would be a great dad.’
When asked if she’s amazed by what she’s achieved in her life, Rihanna shared: ‘The only thing that I knew I wanted, or that I could imagine, was motherhood. I didn’t know how it would come, but it is the best part of my journey so far. Everything else was a surprise.’
As for how many kids she wants to have, Rihanna told the magazine: ‘As many as God wants me to have.’
