Rihanna is no stranger to the Crop Over festival, having made multiple appearances at the annual event over the years. But, since her last appearance, a whole lot has changed for the star.

As pointed out by Entertainment Tonight, over the course of the last five years, she has become the world’s youngest self-made billionaire and given birth to two sons — RZA, 2, and Riot, 1, — with her boyfriend, A$AP Rocky.
While the songstress clearly isn’t expecting at the moment, it’s safe to say she might have an even bigger family the next time she makes it to Barbados for Crop Over.
While speaking to ET at her Fenty Hair launch, the singer revealed that she’s not ruling out having more kids.
When the outlet asked if not having a daughter yet means she’ll have “more kids,” the musician said, “You know what, I hope so. I do.”
“I’m not pregnant if that’s what you’re asking,” she continued, adding, “I would definitely have more kids.”
