Rihanna has been taking tips from the Real Housewives as she prepares to become a mom.
The Umbrella singer, 34, is set to welcome her first child with boyfriend A$AP Rocky, 33, and has opened up about her pregnancy journey.
In a chat with Elle Magazine, she suggested that she will follow Real Housewives of New Jersey star Teresa Giudice’s style of parenting.
When asked which housewife she will be looking towards after giving birth, she told the publication: ‘Heather Dubrow is so chic while being a mom. Just love the way that she just allows her kids to be who they are. And that’s really inspiring to me.
‘But Teresa from Jersey does not play about her kids. She will flatten you about those kids. And that resonates with me a lot because I feel like that’s the type of mom I’m going to be. Psycho about it.
‘You talk about my kids, it’s over.’
Noted.
Rihanna also took the moment to share an update on her pregnancy, explaining that she is currently in her third trimester.
Asked about her glow, she added to the publication: ‘There’s a pregnancy glow. There’s also those days, girl. Especially in the third trimester where you wake up and you’re like, oh, do I have to get dressed? The face gets a little round and chubby. The nose starts to spread. Everything is a challenge, from getting dressed and how you’re going to do your makeup. But I like challenges.’
The We Found Love star announced her baby news at the end of January, taking part in the most stylish photoshoot around the streets of New York with her beau – who she was first linked to in 2020.
She has since been giving us incredible maternity looks, with her baby bump on full display.
However, she and A$AP initially chose to keep the news strictly under wraps – not even telling their closest friends about their joy.
Recalling the struggle in hiding the fact she was expecting, Rihanna told E! News recently: ‘It was harder for me to keep it from my posse, because they’re around me, they know my habits.
‘They’re like, “You don’t want something to drink? You’re not smoking?” And I’m eating all the things I’m not used to eating. They know I hate sweets and I’m all of a sudden asking for cookies and donuts.
‘But finally, I just had to let it all out, and they were all shocked, of course, as the world was shocked as well.’
