Pop icon Rihanna and her longtime boyfriend, A$AP Rocky, turned up the heat in a recent rare joint appearance. On December 2, 2024, the power couple graced the red carpet at the 2024 Fashion Awards in London.
The Umbrella singer stunned in a dramatic Christian Lacroix blue fuzzy coat wrapped around a sleek black bustier dress, paired with a lace skirt and sheer tights. She accessorized with a huge blue furry hat, chic black heels, black leather opera gloves, and some dainty diamond necklaces.
Rocky perfectly complemented her style with his dark navy blue oversized suit, layered over a crisp white dress shirt and topped with a bold red leather tie. His ensemble was completed with shiny black leather square-toe dress shoes.
In a fan-captured video from the event, the couple was seen adorably posing on the red carpet, holding hands with affection. In a heartwarming moment, as Rihanna briefly locked eyes with Rocky, they both broke into wide, loving smiles, radiating warmth.
The rapper was also spotted gently placing his hand on Rihanna’s back, guiding her down the carpet for the photographers. This marked the couple’s second time attending the awards, almost five years after their first joint appearance in 2019.
A$AP Rocky Shares Relationship Secrets That Keep His Romance With Rihanna Thriving
In a Billboard cover story published on August 22, 2024, the Praise The Lord rapper opened up about his relationship with RiRi, offering a rare glimpse into their dynamic.
Rocky shared how the couple manages to keep their romance strong despite their demanding schedules, saying,
“It’s crazy how we find balance with our chaotic schedules. The relationship is going great. I don’t think there’s a more perfect person because when the schedules are hectic, she’s very understanding of that… It’s all about understanding and compatibility”.
A$AP Rocky and Rihanna were friends for over a decade before their platonic relationship blossomed into a full-fledged romance in late 2020. After nearly two years of dating, the couple welcomed their first son, RZA, in May 2022, followed by their second child, Riot, in August 2023.
