How many properties does Rihanna have? How many properties does A$AP Rocky have?
And Where are they gonna raise their newborn? Stay tuned for more!
A$AP Rocky broke the news of Rihanna's pregnancy to music industry veteran A$AP Rocky. Rocky has
shook up the Twittersphere with his fervor. When rumors of an amorous affair began to
circulate in late 2020, the star-studded couple, both Grammy award winners,
first made headlines around the world. The couple, who have been together for
over a year, have announced they're expecting their first child, with Rihanna displaying
her baby bulge in a series of inspiring Instagram photographs earlier this week.
As a confirmed power couple, 'BadGalRiRi' and 'Lord Flacko,' as their moniker suggests,
are now faced with the arduous chore of choosing which multi-million dollar mansion to raise
their newborn baby in. It's a more difficult
question than you might assume. Rihanna is currently believed to be worth north
of $2.38 billion, thanks in large part to her incredibly successful and lucrative cosmetic and
lingerie brands, Fenty Beauty and Savage X Fenty. With all of that money, the Barbadian diva has
been able to acquire a number of gorgeous homes under her umbrella... Umbrella.
The Beachhouse of Barbados: In October 2013, Rihanna purchased a home
in Barbados, where she was born. She purchased an expensive villa at the One Sandy Lane resort,
a far cry from her humble childhood home. The singer rented out the estate after returning
to the island for Christmas the year before decided she loved it so much she was willing to
pay $22 million (£17.1 million) to call it home. The property, which is one of eight on the opulent
complex, includes five ensuite bedrooms, each with its own private patio and dressing room.
The A-list holiday home boasts a magnificent entrance with a spiral staircase leading up to
the bedrooms, complete with beautiful, handcrafted balustrades. That's how you make an impression.
The house, which is known as the most lavish on the island, is conveniently placed just
along the beach from the five-star Sandy Lane resort, which Rihanna is believed to enjoy. We
can't think of a more opulent setting for the actress to unwind after a long day.
The property is the ideal place for Rihanna to sit back, relax, and spend quality time with
her family, with a driver, 24-hour concierge, gardener, and private chef on hand to assist
her. What more could the star want for? The 'Diamonds' singer also owns more than
a half-dozen residences in California, where she spends the majority of her time these days.
Hollywood Hills mansion A high-floor apartment in Wilshire Corridor,
a $10.9 million Hollywood Hills mansion she's selling due to a couple of home invasions in 2018,
and a security-focused, sumptuous $7.3 million unit inside Century City's famed
'The Century' condo project are among the Los Angeles properties she's listed.
Rihanna paid $6.8 million (£5.3 million) for this Hollywood Hills house in 2017.
The residence, which is a recent addition to her property portfolio, is surrounded
by a towering wall of vegetation and guarded entry gates, ensuring the star's seclusion.
The house is 7,100 square feet on the inside, with a poolside guesthouse and a two-car garage.
The opulent home features high ceilings, arched doorways, and steel-framed windows and doors,
with a vast formal living room large enough to house a grand piano and a rustic tiled fireplace.
Three ensuite bedrooms, as well as a large master suite with a city-view sitting room,
fireplace, and lavish private bathroom, are located on the three-story main residence.
Imagine waking up to such beautiful scenery! Between the main house and the guesthouse,
there is an infinity-edge swimming pool and spa, which the star is rumored to utilize as
a workout center. The house was broken into by an intruder who lingered in the
house for 12 hours when Rihanna wasn't there, causing yet another calamity. As a result,
she listed the house for $7.5 million (£5.8 million) in 2018. After failing to sell the house,
Rihanna chose to rent it out for $35,000 (£27k) a month, however the listing has since been removed.
RiRi has also spent more than $32 million on two Beverly Hills residences that were
erected adjacent to each other. The first Beverly Hills property,
Fans wondering what the secretive singer has been up to recently should know that she has
been busy adding to her booming portfolio by purchasing yet another jaw-dropping property.
Rihanna purchased this huge five-bedroom, seven-bathroom Beverly Hills property for $13.8
million (£9.9 million) in early 2021, not long after things got
serious with her new partner A$AP Rocky. The singer recently listed the apartment for rent
at $80,000 (£58k) per month. The 5,900-square-foot property is tucked away in the prestigious 90210
zip code, with famous neighbors. If the new renters run out of milk, they can always turn to
their neighbors, who include Madonna and Sir Paul McCartney, two of Rihanna's major musical idols.
Mary Sheldon, daughter of best-selling crime and thriller novelist Sidney Sheldon,
once owned the property, which was erected in the 1930s. When it was purchased by software
entrepreneur Daniel Starr in 2016, the home's sale was documented in an episode of the reality show
Million Dollar Listing. The investor spent millions on the property's
destruction and reconstruction, then sued his contractors for fraud and bad workmanship.
Despite the turmoil, Starr converted the property into an ultra-modern farmhouse
with modern and traditional architectural elements throughout the building and interiors.
From French white oak hardwood floors to marbled surfaces, to brass and stainless steel accents,
there are plenty of dazzling fixtures and sophisticated craftsmanship on exhibit.
Rihanna, whose lingerie line Savage X Fenty was valued at $1 billion earlier this year,
has previously stated her intention to develop a Caribbean-themed cookbook,
which could explain why she was drawn to the house. The bright
and airy kitchen would have been ideal for trying out new dishes with celebrity pals.
An intimate living area, sophisticated wet bar, and alfresco courtyard with a campfire,
pool, and spa amenities are just a few of the open-plan places for socializing.
Custom walk-in closets and a very spectacular master bathroom with a solitary bathtub that
connects to a sun-trapped terrace will also be available to the new tenant.
There are a variety of areas to spend private moments, as well as several
internal and outdoor overlooks that overlook the luscious foliage of Coldwater Canyon,
as one would expect from a Beverly Hills getaway. The second Beverly Hills property,
Also in 2017, the popstar paid $2.8 million (£2.2 million) for this Spanish-style property
in West Hollywood, only to resell it three months later for $2.9 million (£2.3 million).
The fixer-upper house was sold for the asking price in February 2018 behind locked gates.
The two-story main home includes four bedrooms, five bathrooms, and a den and spans 2,650 square
feet. With fresh white walls, neutral furnishings, and light oak floors throughout, the open-plan
main living room exudes Californian beach vibes. The home's upper-floor master suite dazzles with
an expansive vaulted ceiling, walk-in wardrobe, and ensuite bathroom. The space's private balcony,
which gives breathtaking views of the garden, is, nevertheless, our favorite feature.
In all honesty, we believe the second house will be demolished and replaced with something
far more avant-garde and representative of RiRi's pioneering sense of style.
Rihanna also has a manhattan Penthouse and a secret London house!
But let’s now talk about Mr Rocky's residences.
The 33-year-old Manhattanite, born Rakim Athelaston Mayers,
has a net worth of roughly $14 million, which isn't nearly as large as his female counterpart's.
That hasn't prevented the 'Fashion Killa' rapper from getting two separate pads on
opposite sides of the world. Rocky's first foray into the
lucrative world of real estate was a $5 million home in West Hollywood that he purchased
in 2016. It was aptly and hilariously dubbed a "LA starter house" by Dirt.com.
Rihanna has been photographed periodically visiting and going from the five-bedroom
residence over the past year, indicating that A$AP hasn't grown tired of the modern digs.
Mayers' second home is in London, more notably in the constantly wealthy Mayfair neighborhood.
To his credit, he keeps his exact location, as well as any other details
about his British digs, under wraps. Given that both Rocky and Rihanna have
a sweet spot for London (Rihanna once rented a Victorian-era London mansion for $34,000
a week), there's a high chance the couple will be spending some time with their infant
in the English metropolis. With all of these mansions,
where do you think the couple will raise their newborn? Let us know in the comments!
