Rihanna may be taking time off in the near future — to have a baby.

According to Perez Hilton, a source told the gossip site, "She asked her record company when the best time would be for her to take off, as she wants a baby.

"They just stared at her. Everyone was pretty open-mouthed. But she hasn't got any time free in her diary until 2014."

Rihanna has yet to confirm whether she really plans to have a child, though she did tweet on Wednesday, “Big news coming tomorrow!”

Meanwhile, according to gossip site Examiner, Rihanna booked an exclusive villa in her homeland and plans to have the couple spend the holiday with their parents. Rihanna has already been seen recently going out with Brown’s mother.

A source close to the couple told Heat magazine, “She’s booked him and his mum into a five-star villa in Barbados over New Year so they can all get some downtime with her family.

"While no one else can understand it, she’s convinced that Chris is the love of her life and her soulmate and that they’re simply meant to be together.

"The more the public criticizes Rihanna for getting back with Chris, the more determined she is to do whatever she wants. But they’re unrepentant and they want to show the whole world that they’ve moved on from what happened in 2009,” the source went on to say.

It seems Rihanna’s father, Ronald Fenty, has already given Chris Brown his blessing to marry the Barbadian singer.

“Whatever makes her happy. I hope one day she will get married. Everyone adores Chris, he's a super guy,” Fenty told Life & Style magazine in October, according to the Daily Mail.

“The family loved Chris Brown before they met him. I always thought he was extremely talented. He is a good person and always gave me great respect,” Fenty went on to say.
