Rihanna dropped a cute childhood picture on Instagram

Rihanna took a different approach to wishing followers a Merry Christmas, just posting a lovely photo from her childhood and skipping the lengthy words.

Taking to Instagram, the Umbrella hitmaker shared a swoon-worthy photo of herself suited up in an orange tee and blue trousers.

As she sat on Santa’s lap, the Ocean’s 8 star smiled sweetly for the camera.

Fans rushed the Facebook-owned app’s comment sections with love-filled sentiments as soon as the Diamond singer’s rare photo was posted.

While one user gushed over the star writing,

“Santa got nothing on you for the good you do,” the other wrote, “U look exactly the same! Love it!”

Meanwhile, Rihanna recently denied rumours that she is expecting her first child with boyfriend A$AP Rocky. She allegedly assured a fan called Jen that none of these rumours are true.
