Robyn Rihanna Fenty says she is open to raising children as a single mother after multiple failed relationships with emotionally unavailable men.
The 32-year-old Bajan, who is fast approaching the high-risk age for pregnant women, graces the cover of British Vogue magazine.
Rihanna posed for a high-fashion photo shoot by well-known fashion photographer Steven Klein.
She revealed to British Vogue that she is aware of her emotional flaws that led her to have failed relationships with men and at least one woman.
She said that, despite her history of failed relationships, she still wants to raise “three or four children” alone if she has to.
“Would I do it on my own? Hell yeah!” she told the magazine. She said she wants to have children within the next 10 years.
Rihanna dismissed the advice of childcare experts who say children are more well-rounded and mentally healthy if they grow up in a stable 2-parent household with a mother and father.
“I feel like society makes me want to feel like ‘Oh you got it wrong…’ They diminish you as a mother, [if] there’s not a dad in your kids’ lives,” she said.
Rihanna suggested she wants to have children to give her the happiness she feels she can’t get from men.
“The only thing that matters is happiness, that’s the only healthy relationship between a parent and a child. That’s the only thing that can raise a child truly, is love.”
The pop singer split from Saudi billionaire Hassan Jameel in January after dating long distance for three years.
Her exes include troubled singer Chris Brown and bisexual rappers Drake and A$AP Rocky.
