Rihanna's longtime best friend Melissa Forde appeared to confirm the singer was expecting her first child with rapper A$AP Rocky on social media, only to backtrack hours later.
It all went down after The Neighborhood Talk posted a story about fans lighting up Twitter with their belief Rihanna was pregnant.
On Monday, Rihanna was honored by her native Barbados during its presidential inauguration. The event was a big deal as it marked the country officially severing all ties with the British royal family and Queen Elizabeth II.
Barbadian Prime Minister Mia Mottley declared Rihanna a national hero at the ceremony. She told the crowd, "On behalf of a grateful nation, but an even prouder people, we therefore present to you the designee for national hero of Barbados, Ambassador Robyn Rihanna Fenty."

Rihanna looked stunning while rocking an orange dress that showed off her toned arms. In snaps, RiRi can be seen holding a program in front of her stomach in what appears to be an attempt to block photos from that angle.
While on stage, Rihanna held her hands in front of her stomach.
Rihanna's close friend Melissa double tapped the post the read, "Rihanna is reportedly pregnant with her first child with A$AP Rocky."
The Neighborhood Talk then posted a screenshot of Melissa's like and posted it on their account. Melissa then tried to backtrack off her like claiming she was just high scrolling on Instagram.
