In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, she expressed that life with her boys is anything but dull. Further, she highlighted the constant energy and joy they bring to her days.

“I want to have a girl, but I won’t know what to do because I only know about boys so far, but it’d be an adventure,” she admitted.

Rihanna described the exciting and sometimes chaotic experience of raising young boys, saying,

“The boy energy in my house is the best. It’s never a dull moment, and I love when they climb onto chandeliers, and I love it when they are literally so scary that I’m forced to have fun. Them running around and me lifting them up is all fun and exercise. It works out for ASAP, me and our kids.”
