Social media was abuzz last night when Rihanna was spotted on vacation with a mystery man. If you’re dying to know, he’s Saudi businessman Hassan Jameel.
This started when paparazzi caught Rihanna and Hassan kissing in a pool in Spain. Naturally, everyone freaked out over the singer’s new beau. Even deaf model and America’s Next Top Model Cycle 22 winner Nyle DiMarco wanted to know why the guy resembled him.

Who exactly is Hassan? According to People, the businessman’s family owns Saudi’s Toyota distributor Abdul Latif Jameel and will be the heir to it. Hassan is also the president of Community Jameel, a charitable organization focused on “social, cultural, educational and economic development of individuals and communities in the Middle East region and beyond.”
Hassan also owns a pro football league in Saudi Arabia and he was ranked 12th in Forbes Middle East’s richest Arabs in the world. Oh, he’s also Naomi Campbell’s ex-boyfriend and may have introduced Rihanna to him.
Meanwhile, a source told The Sun that Rihanna and Hassan “are really serious” about their relationship. They’ve also spent some time away from the public eye.
Nothing but the best for RiRi, am I right?
