Yes, A$AP Rocky Is Dating Rihanna And Says She's 'The Love Of My Life'

A$AP Rocky is in love. More specifically, he's in love with Rihanna. Even more specifically — because I identify that also applies to large swaths of the global population — he is, case in point, in a relationship with Rihanna.


In a revealing and intimate new GQ cover story, Rocky catches the world up on what the past few years of his life have looked like. Segment of that includes sitting in a Swedish prison cell for "23 plus 1/2 hours a day" right after his 2019 arrest, sketching out pieces for a teamwork with Parisian designer Marine Serre, and yes, romancing Rihanna, calling her both "the love of my life" and "my lady."


He's tight-lipped on the timeline of their relationship, yet there really are several things we know. They've been spotted in Barbados, Los Angeles, and elsewhere within the past year and posed together to promote Fenty Skin last summer. They appeared together on the red carpet at the 2019 Style Awards in London. Plus, Rocky was the first act on Rihanna's Diamonds World Tour all of the way back in 2013, and so they performed with each other at the 2012 MTV VMAs.


The rest of the specifics? Rocky thinks being coupled up is "so much better any time while you got The One," as he says in the profile. "She amounts to probably, like, a million of the other ones." And then, to really leave it unambiguous, he underlines everything in verbal Sharpie: "I think while you know, you know. She's The One."


Rocky is also asked point blank if he's prepared to be a father, and he seems game. "I would have a very fly child. Very."


Elsewhere in the profile, Rocky digs deep into the past year of his life, including dropping acid, designing clothes, and doing as much traveling as possible. With Rihanna, in an enormous bus, from L.A. All of the way to New York City. Exceptionally romantic and liberating shit. Oh, and he recorded some music through the a celluar setup where he might while doing so. "God blessed me with a lot, so I'm working with that," he says, "and that's enough to create some fuckin' fire."


Rocky's latest album is, so far, titled All Smiles and features one confirmed collaborator: Morrissey. Rihanna's presence will be felt, he hints, by virtue of being there to help with the work, though he won't reveal much else. No word, either, on whether or not he also worked on the much-discussed, still-in-production reggae album Rihanna is reportedly still working on.


However hey, he's in love. And he's free. "I've been playing around with fashion, with rhythm, with sonics, film, food, health, love, life — for real," Rocky says. Read the whole piece over at GQ.
