Part 10: Jumping the Shark

  • September 2016: After sharing an onstage kiss in Miami, Rihanna and Drake get matching tattoos of a camouflage shark. Cute, right? It gets cuter. Remember that romantic date they had at the Toronto Aquarium in August? Well, while there, the rapper gave her an adorable camouflage shark stuffed animal. Put it together. Days later, during an LA stop on his Summer Sixteen tour, Drake brings the singer out on stage and told the crowd, "I pray that you find somebody that holds you down like this woman right here." He then proceeds to call her "incredible, beautiful [and] talented."
  • October 2016: According to Us Weekly, Drake and Rihanna have split again. A source close to the singer says, "She doesn't want to be held down," adding, "They will always be close. If they end up together, it could happen, but not now."
