Barbados Prime Minister, Mia Mottley, has congratulated the Barbados-born international singer, Rihanna, on the birth of her first child earlier this week in the United States.
Mottley said hers was a pregnancy “that captivated the world for the last few months, and it is my sincere view that Rihanna represented well, women everywhere”.
International media reports said the singer, and Fenty Beauty founder, gave birth to a baby boy on May 13 in Los Angeles. The father is rapper, A$AP Rocky.
Rihanna’s pregnancy became a media frenzy in late January after photos emerged of the 34-year-old singer, proudly displaying her baby bump as she went for a stroll with her 33-year-old boyfriend, Rocky, in Harlem.
“I am absolutely delighted, on behalf of all Barbadians, to offer heartfelt congratulations to our newest National Hero, the Right Excellent Robyn Rihanna Fenty, on the birth of her baby boy,” Mottley said in a statement, adding that the singer had chosen to “wear” her pregnancy with pride, never once treating it as a sickness or a period of withdrawal, as so many women have been made to feel was their place for centuries.
“In short, she redefined the world view on how women should be viewed during pregnancy.
Today, Barbadians join tens of millions across the globe congratulating Rihanna and Rocky and sharing the joy of the birth of their son,” Mottley added.
