The rapper was arrested this week on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon over an alleged gun attack in Hollywood that happened in November 2021.
The event resulted in an acquaintance being shot at, causing a minor injury.
He was released on $747,000 bail just three hours later, but the chaotic event meant the pair had to put a stopper on their upcoming baby shower with family and friends.
According to the insider, the baby shower was due to happen that Wednesday night.
"Rihanna was very, very upset and stressed by Rocky's arrest," they said, adding, "It's not the best time for her to be on such an emotional rollercoaster."

LAPD reports show the victim of the non-fatal shooting claimed Rocky went up to him in Hollywood on November 6 with a gun in hand and fired multiple shots – one of which grazed his left hand.
The report claims the event occurred after an argument between two acquaintances, which "escalated" and resulted in "the suspect firing a handgun at the victim".
According to the LA Times, officers searched the rapper's home in connection with the case after his arrest.
Records show the rapper now has a court date set for August 17.
