Rihanna is a national hero
The most recent rumour about Rihanna’s pregnancy started after attending a Barbados ceremony.
The Fenty boss was among dignitaries who gathered in her hometown of Bridgetown on Monday, 29 November, in celebration of the country breaking ties with the British monarchy.
At one point, Rihanna had her hands over her stomach, with some assuming she was hiding a baby bump.
The ceremony, which was also the inauguration of president-elect Sandra Mason as head of state, saw the music star bestowed the honour of National Hero of Barbados by Prime Minister Mia Mottley.
