Who Is Rihanna Dating? Rumors Swirl Following Make Out Pics With Mystery Man

Rihanna’s off the market — at least, it looks that way. On Tuesday, photos surfaced of the “Wild Thoughts” singer in the midst of a steamy makeout session with an at-the-time unidentified man.

It appears her suitor’s identity may no longer by a mystery however. According to The Sun, Hassan Jameel is the lucky man. In addition to being linked to the popular singer, the site reports that he’s a Saudi business man who hails from one of the richest families in the world.

The photographs, posted on TMZ, showed Rihanna and a man now understood to be Jameel locking lips in a pool. The pictures were snapped in Spain, where the rumored couple are thought to be vacationing. Paparazzi caught the pair on camera, kissing, after she skipped the BET Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday.

Fans were quick to react to the photo, celebrating the “Work” singer’s latest relationship. Before long, quasi Twitter detectives uncovered a photo of Rihanna’s former gal pal Naomi Campbell kissing a man who looked strikingly similar to Rihanna’s new lover. Some speculated that may be the reason their friendship ended — others weren’t so quick to dive into the theory.

Stars also joined in on the fun. Political Pundit Chris Hayes tweeted several times about the steamy pictures, questioning the identity of the man photographed. Meanwhile, Nyle Dimarco ensured Twitter users he isn’t the man photographed.

Rihanna has been keeping a low profile for some time now. The singer is notoriously private about her dating life, which is likely the reason fans were so shocked to see photos of her and a new love interest. The Barbados native hasn’t been photographed with a man since Drake, whom she parted ways with in 2016.

Still, rumors have been swirling about the nature of their on-and-off relationship for some time. The “One Dance” rapper reignited rumors about their relationship during the 2016 MTV Video Music Awards. While presenting the Video Vanguard Award to Rihanna, he claimed he was “in love” with her.

“She’s someone I’ve been in love with since I was 22 years old. She’s one of my best friends in the world, all my adult life I’ve looked up to her even though she’s younger than me,” he said. “She’s a living, breathing legend in our industry.”

Since going their separate ways romantically, Drake and Rihanna have each been connected to several other people. Drake arrived at the NBA sports awards on Monday with Rosalyn Gold-Onwude on his arm. He’s also been linked to Zoe Kravitz, Vanessa Hudgens, Jennifer Lopez, Nicki Minaj and more.

As for Rihanna, she’s been linked to several big names in Hollywood. Dating rumors swirled about her and Leonardo DiCaprio, Travis Scott and more. She’s confirmed none of those claims.

Rihanna has yet to respond to the most recent rumors about her relationship. She often reacts to memes on social media. She and her beau haven’t been photographed together again.
