Professionally known as A$AP Rocky, rapper and actor Rakim Athelaston Mayers, 32, of Harlem, Manhattan, New York City, United States is dating singer and actress Robyn Rihanna Fenty, 33. Mononymously called Rihanna, the latter is originally from Bridgetown, Barbados.

“(Rihanna) is the love of my life,” Rocky told GQ. “(She is) my lady.”

When asked what it was like to be in a relationship, Rocky told the publication that it is “so much better when you got the one.” For him, Rihanna “amounts to probably like a million of the other ones.”

“I think when you know, you know,” Rocky continued. “She’s the one.”

Rocky did not reveal when his romance with Rihanna started. She was in a relationship with Hassan Jameel, 32, of Saudi Arabia from April 2017 to January 2020.

On December 2, 2019, Rocky and Rihanna walked the British Fashion Awards red carpet together at the Royal Albert Hall in London, England. A month later, it was announced that she and Jameel broke up.
