If there’s any celebrity couple who knows how to introduce the world to their children, it’s Rihanna and A$AP Rocky.
Now the couple have raised the bar even higher with their first family-of-four photoshoot, in which they have introduced their second-born son, Riot Rose Mayers, who was born in Los Angeles on August 1.
Riot's name was influenced by his parent's love of fresh flowers, a source confirmed to Entertainment Tonight. 'Not everyone knows this, but Rocky loves flowers—he loves having fresh flowers in the house, he loves decorating with flowers, and he even had real flowers in his grill once,' they said, adding that roses are a particular favourite of Rihanna's. The name Riot mirrors the title of a song released by Rocky.
