There's a reason why A$AP Rocky is known as "the prettiest man alive." Besides his undeniable musical talent, he is also a fashion-forward influencer with the looks and charm to make him the center of attention.

While Rocky, born Rakim Athelaston Mayers, is indeed a whole package by himself with incredible fame and fortune, he recently revealed the one thing that makes his life better, his romantic relationship with pop icon, Rihanna Fenty.

Rocky also admitted that being in a relationship felt great because he felt he was with the right person. While happy in his relationship, he did not divulge how and when they started dating.

However, rumors of their romantic involvement first sparked back in 2013 when he performed at Rihanna's Diamonds World Tour. In the same year, the Fenty Beauty mogul appeared opposite Rocky in his music video for "Fashion Killa."

Of course, there was a period between June 2017 and January 2020 when Rihanna was dating billionaire Toyota heir, Hassan Jameel. During that time, Rocky was romantically linked to reality star and Victoria's Secret model, Kendall Jenner.

[Rihanna] has been linked with several big names in Hollywood, including actor Leonardo DiCaprio.

Despite other relationships, the pair stayed in contact and remained friends, attending fashion shows and award shows together. Rocky was even a guest at Rihanna's annual Diamond Ball two years in a row.

Speculation of Rocky and Rihanna's romance heated up in early 2020 and continued through August 2020, when the dynamic duo collaborated on a campaign for Rihanna's skincare line, Fenty Skin.

At the close of 2020, Rocky and the "We Found Love" songstress' relationship became more apparent after being spotted together on multiple occasions, including a Christmas trip to Rihanna's home country, Barbados.
