Unless you've been living under a rock, you've probably heard that Rihanna is pregnant with A$AP Rocky's child. As the internet reacted to the news, people soon began cutting up—with some extra-petty individuals questioning how Drake must be handling the news.
The pair had an on-and-off relationship for a few years, and they collaborated on several steamy singles like "What's My Name?," "Take Care," and "Work" before they ended their friendship around 2018.
Drake recently began trending on social media with the recent news of Rihanna's pregnancy. Let's see what some Twitter users had to say about the matter.
People began bringing Drake's name up mere hours after Rihanna announced her pregnancy on Monday. Twitter users specifically began sharing memes of his supposed heartbroken reaction to the news.

Others speculated that Drake's response would be more anger-driven rather than full of sadness.

Similarly, people began joking about the irony of this news coming just a few months after Drake dropped Certified Lover Boy, which features an array of pregnant emoji women on the cover.

While Twitter was having a blast with this trend, it got taken to a whole other level after a new video surfaced showing Drake out and about at an NBA game yesterday. Specifically, Drake was spotted with grown-out hair and a disgruntled look on his face as he scrolled on his phone, providing additional fodder for Twitter comedians

While most social media users were sharing memes and jokes, it's worth noting that others were more sympathetic to how Drake may be handling the situation behind closed doors.
