For the first time in a long while, Rihanna has shared rare photos with her children. The occasion was a special family trip: the 38-year-old singer returned to her native Barbados with her three children — four-year-old RZA, three-year-old Riot and 11-month-old daughter Rocki Irish.

One of the family’s main stops was a street that holds special significance for Rihanna. Together with her children, the singer visited the former Westbury New Road in the Saint Michael parish — the very place where the future superstar spent her childhood.

In 2017, the street was officially renamed Rihanna Drive in the singer’s honor. The ceremony took place on November 30, Barbados’ Independence Day.

In the photos Rihanna shared on Instagram, she poses beside a commemorative plaque bearing her name, holding little Rocki in her arms, while her sons RZA and Riot stand beside her.

For the family outing, Rihanna chose a striking black dress with a thigh-high slit. Alongside the photos, the singer shared a heartfelt reflection on how dramatically her life has changed.

«One minute I feel like that little girl from Westbury, and the next I’m bringing my children to Rihanna Drive. Life is something else! And the glory will always belong to the Creator!», she wrote.
