Rihanna’s dad was just as surprised as the rest of the world when the “Umbrella” singer revealed her baby bump during Super Bowl 2023 halftime last weekend.

Ronald Fenty, who flew in from Barbados to attend the game in Glendale, Arizona, told TMZ he didn’t know his daughter was expecting her second child with A$AP Rocky.

“Oh my God! My baby girl looks pregnant,” he recalled telling that partner while in the stands at State Farm Stadium.

Ronald also noted that he hopes the Fenty Beauty mogul, 34, will welcome a baby girl this time around – after giving birth to a son last year.

Page Six contacted representatives for Rihanna but did not immediately respond.

As previously reported, the “Disturbia” singer, born Robyn Rihanna Fenty, has had a rocky relationship with her dad over the years.

Ronald divorced Rihanna’s mother, Monica Braithwaite, amid alcohol and drug problems when the singer was just 14.

Rihanna then accused her father of misusing her name for the benefit of his own entertainment company. However, she eventually dropped the lawsuit she filed against him in September 2021.

Ronald recently spoke to Page Six about being the grandfather of Rihanna’s first child, born in May 2022.

” She loves that. She’s a very overprotective mother,” he said, noting that the ‘Rude Boy’ singer had visited her home country with the youngster twice so far.

“Everyone says (the baby) looks like me, but you know, babies change, faces change. He (looks) a lot like Rihanna and Rocky together,” he continued.

Ronald, who joked that Rihanna would “get (her) head” if he leaked the bub’s name, also said Rocky, 34, was “a cool guy.”

“(He is) very respectable. He assumes fatherhood very well, ”said Ronald.

However, he “doesn’t know” if the couple will ever get married.

“I don’t know about marriage, I really don’t know.”

Rihanna and Rocky, who are the British cover stars of Vogue March with their baby boy, started dating at the end of 2020, after being friends for years.
