A$AP Rocky, the popular rapper, has recently come under fire after posting a video on Father’s Day where he can be seen smoking a large roll-up cigarette beside his pregnant partner, Rihanna. The post has generated criticism from netizens who believe that smoking in the presence of a pregnant woman is inappropriate.
The Video and Backlash
On Father’s Day, A$AP Rocky shared a carousel of images featuring him, Rihanna, and their young son, including a video where he is smoking while being close to the heavily pregnant singer.

Netizens Express Concerns
Thousands of fans flooded the comments section of the post, many expressing their disapproval of A$AP Rocky smoking around Rihanna, particularly during her pregnancy. One comment stated, “You really shouldn’t be smoking indoors next to your pregnant wife.”

In a previous interview with Vogue, Rihanna mentioned giving up smoking marijuana while expecting, saying, “I was bracing myself for something insane because I knew I wouldn’t have my usual coping mechanism: I can’t just go and smoke a joint right now.” Her statement further reinforces the concerns raised by netizens regarding A$AP Rocky’s choice to smoke near her during pregnancy.
A$AP Rocky’s Father’s Day Message
A$AP Rocky captioned the slideshow of images and the smoking video with the message, “EVERYDAY FATHERS DAY,” emphasizing the importance of celebrating fatherhood. Rihanna, in response to the post, commented, “The Mayers boys stole my whole heart! Happy Father’s Day, nerd,” referring to A$AP Rocky’s real name, Rakim Athelaston Mayers.
Relationship and Parenthood
Rihanna and A$AP Rocky began dating in 2020, after having been professionally linked as early as 2013. They welcomed their first child, a son named RZA, in May 2022. The couple is now expecting their second baby.
Closing Thoughts
While A$AP Rocky’s Father’s Day post intended to celebrate fatherhood, it has sparked controversy due to his decision to smoke in close proximity to pregnant Rihanna. The incident has reignited the conversation about the potential risks associated with secondhand smoke during pregnancy and has drawn criticism from concerned netizens.
