Rihanna and A$AP Rocky Went From Friends to Lovers – See Their Relationship Timeline

Rihanna and A$AP’s relationship traces all the way back to 2011 when the two collaborated for a remix of Rihanna’s song “Cockiness (Love It)” off her album “Talk That Talk.” The following yea, they performed the song at the MTV Video Music Awards, and the sparks were already flying!

Following their collaboration, A$AP joined Rihanna on the North American portion of her Diamonds World Tour in 2013. That same year, Rihanna was featured in A$AP’s “Fashion Killa” music video as the main love interest.

For the greater portion of five years, rumours of Rihanna and A$AP dating constantly circulated in the media, despite the two having well-documented romances with other people. Rihanna dated businessman Hassan Jameel from 2017 until their split in 2020. A$AP, on the other hand, was linked with a few different people, including Kendall Jenner.

Despite being in a relationship with Jameel at the time, buzz around Rihanna and A$AP’s relationship started circulating when the pair were seen close together at the Louis Vuitton Runway Show at Paris Fashion Week in 2018.

Following their appearance at Paris Fashion Week, the two began to appear together at more public outings. In September 2019, A$AP was seen at Rihanna’s Diamond Ball, and just three months later, the pair attended the British Fashion Awards together in London. There was no reason to believe their quality time together was anything more than friendly. Still, in January 2020, Rihanna and Hassan Jameel broke up, though it had nothing to do with A$AP.

After what seemed like an eternity for fans wanting the pair to get together, “People” reported that Rihanna and A$AP were in a relationship. A source told “Us Weekly” that “A$AP has been very into Rihanna for years,” and “was always the instigator” when the two would flirt.

Following a few months of dating and public outings, A$AP opened up to “GQ” about his relationship with Rihanna, and couldn’t stop gushing over his GF. In the interview, he said Rihanna was his “lady” and “love of his life.” When asked about the seriousness of their bond and if she was “the one,” A$AP said, “She amounts to probably, like, a million of the other ones. I think when you know, you know. She’s the One.” Is someone chopping onions, or is it me?

After several months of dating, A$AP and Rihanna stole the show together at the Met Gala, looking elated and totally in love.

Just when you thought you couldn’t be more obsessed with A$AP and Rihanna as a couple, on Jan. 31, 2022, “People” reported that the pair were expecting following Rihanna’s public appearance with a baby bump in New York City the previous weekend.
