A$AP Rocky has finally confirmed he's dating Rihanna - meaning there's a new, incredibly hot - now official - A-list couple in town. The rapper announced the news in an interview with GQ, saying that the singer is 'the love of my life'. And, honestly? It's given us hope in celebrity romances again, which we're very thankful for. 'She amounts to probably, like, a million of the other ones. I think when you know, you know,' he said. 'She’s the one.'

It's long, long been rumoured that the pair have been together, as they've worked on a few projects over the years. As recently as last July, the pair worked together on a Fenty Beauty campaign - that's Rihanna's make-up line - and back in 2013, the rapper supported Ri on her world tour, with Rihanna also featuring in his Fashion Killa video. But it's believed they've only become an item after Rihanna split from her billionaire boyfriend Hassan Jameel last year.

Understandably, with the pair both being super famous, the rapper explained that they'd tried to avoid paparazzi attention. And that he's been working with new music, with Rihanna helping out - though he didn't say whether she'd feature or not on his next album, All Smiles. (OMG, could this news get any better?) 'I think it’s important to have somebody that you can bounce those creative juices and ideas off of,' he said, speaking about Rihanna's influence on his new music.

Who is A$AP Rocky?

Born on October 3, 1988, Rakim Athelaston Mayers - aka A$AP Rocky - is a talented rapper, whose music became incredibly popular in the early 2010s. If you're wondering where the name came from, he's a member of the hip hop collective A$AP Mob, a Harlem-based group of creatives.

He made headlines in 2019 after being arrested for assault in Sweden. The high-profile case even encouraged Donald Trump to get involved in the #FreeRocky campaign.
