Rihanna wants to give birth at 'Barbados mansion with spa treatments and afterparty'

Rihanna is planning to give birth at her £17million mansion in Barbados followed by a lavish afterparty for family and friends, it has been revealed.

The Umbrella singer is set to install a no expenses spared birthing suite with all the equipment, including a state of the art birthing pool.

Her best friend, Dr Sonita Alexander, will deliver the baby, which fans believe is due in spring – although Rihanna hasn’t confirmed her due date.

All the most important women in her life are going to be there, according to a pal.

While they wait for the baby to arrive, Rihanna's guests will be treated to spa treatments such as manicures and pedicures.

Rihanna will also be getting regular pregnancy massages and vitamin IV’s to make sure her baby gets all the nutrients it needs in the run up to the birth.

Once the baby arrives, a source claims the 34-year-old and partner A$AP Rocky plan to throw a five-star knees-up to celebrate.

The insider told Heat magazine: “As far as she is concerned, the day she becomes a mother is the most important in her life. She wants it to be as magical as possible.

“She’ll have the people she cares most about with her, including her mother Monica, and her best friend from childhood Sonita Alexander, who is a doctor and who she wants to deliver the baby.”

Speaking about Rihanna’s plans for afterwards, the pal said it is set to be a “celebratory affair from start to finish”.

“She’s going to throw a bit lavish beach party, and will also hold other get-togethers at her place and a nearby resort," the insider continued.

“She can’t wait to celebrate alongside all her favourite people and is determined to make this epic.”

This is the first baby for Rihanna and her US rapper beau A$AP, whose real name is Rakim Mayers.

The smitten couple announced the happy news during a photoshoot in Harlem in which Rihanna proudly showed off her bump.

Since revealing her pregnancy, Rihanna has been wearing outfits that accentuate her expectant figure everywhere she goes.

Her pregnancy style has seen the singer and beauty mogul wear plenty of crop tops and low cut trousers.

Speaking about her recent fashion choices, she said: “When women get pregnant, society tends to make it feel like you hide, hide your sexy, and that you’re not sexy right now (but) you’ll get back there and I don’t believe in that sh*t.

“So I’m trying stuff that I might not have even had the confidence to try before I was pregnant. The strappiest, the thinnest and the more cut-outs the better for me.”

One thing she is definitely embracing from her changing body is having bigger boobs. “My boobs have been growing by the week,” she added.
