Did Rihanna and A$AP Rocky Secretly Tie the Knot? 2022 Video Easter Egg Backs Up His Loving Husband Claim
Did Rihanna and A$AP Rocky secretly tie the knot? After the rapper referred to himself as Rihanna’s loving husband, fans are combing a 2022 track for clues.
Rihanna and A$AP Rocky are either married or really enjoy keeping everyone guessing. Rocky just casually dropped the phrase 'loving husband' in a new interview, which instantly re-lit the secret wedding rumor machine. Here is what he actually said, where the speculation started, and how we got here.
Did he just confirm it?
In a recent chat with The Perfect Magazine, Rocky talked about family, peace, and giving his all. Then he dropped this line:
'Being a father and a partner and a loving husband in my family is what makes me really, really happy. It doesn’t matter what hat I wear that day; it’s just about being able to give it my all and do these things.'
That one phrase is what sent fans sprinting to the altar on their behalf. To be clear: there is still no official confirmation that Rihanna and Rocky are married. It could be casual wording, or it could be him soft-launching the news. With these two, both options are always on the table.
The 2022 'did they really just do that?' teaser
If this feels familiar, it is. Rocky’s 2022 video for 'D.M.B.' features a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment where his grill reads 'Marry Me?' and Rihanna flashes 'I do' on hers. It played like a cheeky easter egg at the time, but now it is Exhibit A for the believers.
How the relationship evolved (and why fans think a secret ceremony is plausible)
- 2012: They first linked up musically, and Rocky later joined Rihanna’s tour as the opener for the North American leg.
- 2018: The two were spotted sitting together at Louis Vuitton’s show in Paris.
- January 2020: Dating rumors heat up.
- December 2020: Paparazzi catch them getting cozy in Barbados, which pretty much confirms the relationship.
- May 2021: Rocky goes public with how serious he is, calling Rihanna the love of his life.
- May 2022: Rihanna gives birth to their first child, son RZA.
- February 2023: During her Super Bowl halftime show, Rihanna reveals she’s pregnant again.
- August 2023: Their second child, son Riot, arrives.
- Legal chapter: Through Rocky’s legal troubles, Rihanna has shown support, including appearing in court during proceedings.
- September 25, 2025: Some reports claim Rihanna quietly welcomed a third child, their first daughter, reportedly named Rocki. As of now, there has been no official confirmation from the couple or their reps.
Where this leaves things
Rocky calling himself a 'loving husband' is either a slip, a soft confirm, or just how he talks about his family. Add in that 'D.M.B.' wink and the couple’s history of doing things on their own timeline, and you can see why the secret-wedding theory keeps resurfacing.
Until they say it outright, it is still speculation. If they did tie the knot without telling anyone, honestly, that feels very on brand for them.
Are you buying the secret ceremony theory, or is this just another well-placed tease?
