Rihanna and A$AP Rocky have been spotted leaving the same restaurant at 2am amid ongoing rumours that the pair are dating. 

The singer, 33, rocked a black letterman jacket with yellow sleeves and her own initial on the front in green as she left Carbone over the weekend. 

A$AP, 32, was also wearing a similar style jacket for the outing, teaming his with stripy trousers and bucket hat, as well as a small metal lunchbox with stickers all over it, with both he and Rihanna wearing masks for the outing. 

Although restaurants in New York are currently allowed to open until 11pm, the pair left the venue separately around 2am according to reports, to avoid being photographed together. 

The pair have yet to comment on rumours they may be dating, which began to circulate last year. 

Rihanna and A$AP have known each other since at least 2012 when they worked on the remix of her song Cockiness together, but sources claimed their relationship recently turned romantic.

Speculation that the pair might be an item started in January 2020 after Rihanna split from her long-term boyfriend Hassan Jameel after three years of dating. 

A$AP and Rihanna were then spotted together on various occasions throughout the year, with the singer even enlisting A$AP for promo shots for her Fenty Skin range last August. 

Things appeared to get more serious at the end of the year as the rumoured couple were snapped together on Christmas Eve in Barbados, with sources claiming that A$AP spent the holiday with Rihanna and her family in her hometown. 

A source told Entertainment Tonight at the time: ‘They’ve known each other for so long as friends and in a work setting, which makes it so easy for them to get along, travel together and be involved in each other’s lives to the full extent.

‘They always have such a good time together and definitely seem in love.’
