Rihanna‘s eldest son “struggled” to accept his new baby brother at first.

The “Wild Thoughts” hitmaker has admitted RZA “struggled in the beginning” when his younger sibling Riot came home from the hospital in August. The older sibling doesn’t like it when the newborn’s crying, according to Rihanna, but he soon learned to love the little one.


“If the baby’s crying, he’ll come and just like, hold his hands. It hurts him if the baby’s crying. He’ll wake up in the morning just saying, ‘Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby,'” the mother of two said to “Entertainment Tonight.”

“He loves him. It took a while, but he got there, and I’m proud of him,” Rihanna continued.


The singer and entrepreneur loves being a “boy mom.”

“They’re the best … having a house full of boys, I mean. I thought I was a girl mom … I’m a boy mom. I love this, I love it,” she gushed.

Rihanna isn’t done adding to her brood and would love to give her sons a sister.

“So far, [I want to] have daughters,” she told “E! News.” “I’m batting at 75 per cent for a boy next time. So, we’ll just keep our fingers crossed.”

This week, the “Work” hitmaker also gushed that A$AP Rocky as a dad is a “major turn-on.”

The “Love on the Brain” singer “loved” her partner “differently” when he became a father and playfully admitted their kids love him so much she just feels like “an extra.”

“I loved him differently as a dad. This is major, major like, it’s a turn-on. It’s just like, ‘Wow! What a leader, what a great, patient, loving (dad),'” she told “Access Hollywood.”

“And my kids are obsessed with him,” Rihanna added. “I’m just a background, I’m an extra. Yep! It happens! … It doesn’t matter if it’s girls or boys, they love their dad differently and I love to see it.”
