A$AP Rocky was spotted in a wheelchair leaving a hospital, whilst his partner Rihanna is heavily pregnant with their third child, but why?

A$AP Rocky was seen in a wheelchair, in pictures obtained by TMZ, leaving fans concerned as his partner, Rihanna, is pregnant with their third child.

The rapper was seen on the evening of the 21st July being helped into a car, causing concern, as he seemingly couldn’t move without assistance.

• Rihanna children: The names and ages of her kids with A$AP Rocky
• How long have Rihanna and A$AP Rocky been together?

He was pictured, head laid back, with a blanket over his head with sunglasses covering his eyes.

This sparked health concerns for the rapper amongst fans.

However, it has since been reported by TMZ that the rapper was simply recovering from minor dental surgery so fans can rest assured, he is fine.

Fans commented on the pictures, with one saying: “Damn, all that cause of a minor dental surgery? Speedy recovery papi.”

With the rapper set to release his upcoming album ‘Don’t Be Dumb’, Summer 2025, fans are concerned that there has been no promotion or news of the project, and they are taking these images and running with them.

One fan commented: “Anything to delay the album, man.”

Another said: “Rolled out before his album could.”

So, fans can rest assured that the father of Rihanna’s kids is safe and well…but no updates on the upcoming album.
