Rihanna and A$AP Rocky marked their son's first birthday, RZA Athelstan, on the 13th of May. Rocky made an Instagram tribute to the adorable baby by posing cute pictures of his mother, Rihanna kissing him on the cheek. Another sweet photo showed the family of three posing and throwing silly faces in the mirror.

34-year-old Rocky also shared photos of father-son time with RZA, including one of them shaving together and another of him holding the baby boy up as they danced around the room. It's one of the many times Rihanna and Rocky have shown off their son since birth.

The "Fashion Killa" rapper added a video of Wu-Tang Clan founding member Ol' Dirty Bastard at the end of his birthday tribute to RZA. The video was at an award show and featured Bastard saying, 

"Wu-Tang Clan is for the children." Rocky also captioned the whole post with the late singer's comment, "' WU TANG IZ 4 DA CHUREN' HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY TO MY 1st BORN. RZA."

Rihanna and Rocky's son's name, RZA Athelston Mayers, was revealed after the Daily Mail obtained his birth certificate. The celebrity couple named him after rapper and producer RZA, the current Hip-Hop group Wu-Tang Clan leader. The rapper's real name is Robert Fitzgerald Diggs.

Their son's name reveal comes a few months after Rihanna announced her second pregnancy at her iconic Super Bowl Halftime show. 

Since she and Rocky resumed their public outings after birthing RZA, they've shared multiple videos of their time with him. One video the "Where Have You Been" singer posted online showed the baby boy interrupting his mother's workout routine.

During a March interview with British Vogue, Rihanna spoke about her first months as a mother. She shared that the experience has been "legendary" and "everything," and said life has completely changed. The "Diamonds" singer also spoke about not remembering her life before motherhood.

She said, "You try to remember it – and there are photos of my life before – but the feeling, the desires, the things that you enjoy, everything, you just don't identify with it because you don't even allow yourself mentally to get that far, because…. Because it doesn't matter."

In an earlier interview with Elle, Rihanna also talked about her parenting style as a protective mother. She compared her mothering style to "Real Housewives of New Jersey" star Teresa Giudice, who can be a "psycho" for her children. The fashion icon even said she'd likely be much worse than Guidice.

Last week, Rihanna celebrated the fifth anniversary of her Savage X Fenty line with a photoshoot shared on Instagram. In the photos, the business mogul wore black lingerie from the brand and posed in front of a printer with papers flying everywhere. She captioned the celebratory post, "It's giving…call HR!! #5yearsofSAVAGEX."

Many of her fans and fellow celebrities hyped her and the label up in the comments section of the "Umbrella" singer's anniversary post.

Singer Lizzo commented, "I need some lingerie for my man, sis," while Supermodel Gigi Hadid posted a smiley face and flaming heart emojis. One fan wrote, "She bodies pregnancy, not the other way around."
