For her part, Rihanna confirmed more than a decade ago that she saw herself raising a child with a partner. “I definitely think a child deserves both parents,” the star said in a 2010 interview (via E! Online). She added, “I don’t know if I’ll be married or anything. But however the father is in the child’s life, he’s going to be in the child’s entire life.”
Talking about her future, the singer also said, “But in a perfect book, there would be marriage and kids.” Meanwhile, a source told the Mirror in February, “Rihanna is totally smitten with A$AP. They have a very close bond and Rihanna has always been quite traditional.”
The source also confided, “They will be married, for sure. She has told pals she wants to be with him forever, and he has said the same.” Finally, the source said, “There are no plans yet as to when the nuptials will be but it won’t be before the baby is born. She has always wanted to get married and A$AP is her forever person.”
