A$AP Rocky has shared some personal insights into how he and Rihanna maintain their relationship after welcoming three children into their lives.
The couple, who made their relationship public in November 2020, are parents to Rocki Irish, who is four months old, Riot, aged two, and RZA, who is three. The addition of children has undoubtedly shifted their relationship dynamics.
For many, trying to sustain the same relationship after having kids can feel unattainable. The pressures and demands of parenting, along with the stress and potential for disputes, can lead to distance between partners.
Therefore, nurturing the relationship is crucial.
However, it requires effort, something the ‘Don’t Be Dumb’ rapper seems to have a grasp on.
The 37-year-old appeared on The Ebro Show, where he discussed how he and Rihanna keep things exciting while being parents.
Rocky explained: “You got to spice it up. You got to still date. You got to still be friends.”
He elaborated: “We roll [music] dice. We play cards. Like, you know what I’m saying? Like, she a cheater. We be playing crazy eights. I love that girl to death, man. You know, word. We got to keep the funk going cuz if not, what we doing then?”
Despite curiosity from fans about when they might get married, the rapper had previously addressed this topic.
In an interview with ELLE, he was questioned about calling the singer his ‘wife’.
He playfully responded: “How you know I’m not already a husband?”
A$AP further stated that he would never confirm whether they were engaged or married.
During his chat with Ebro Darden, Rocky also shared how being a father to daughters has had a profound impact on him.
“Man, being a girl dad, bro, it’s made me so vulnerable. I’m born again,” he shared. “Granted, she’s only 4 months, but when she looks at me, Ebro, I just be like, I melt inside. You know what I’m saying?”
“Like, I’m already in love with her mother, so I’m falling in love all over again,” Rocky added.
He also mentioned how it has increased his appreciation for women.
“And it’s just like the respect I have for women is just growing,” he said. “I just got so much respect and props for mothers, what they go through, what their bodies go through, the changes, and then to have a daughter. It’s just mindboggling, bro.”
“She got all my looks,” he continued. “She the girl version of me, man.”
