They've barely been apart over the past week, but Rihanna and her rumoured new beau Karim Benzema still had time for another date night on Saturday.
The singer and the Real Madrid footballer were spotted enjoying a dinner at the singer's favourite restaurant Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica.
The rumoured couple ensured they had privacy for their cosy meal, sitting in a private room and not leaving for four hours.
The music star has recently been linked to basketball player LeBron James, actor Leonardo DiCaprio and DiCaprio's friend Richie Akiva.
Rihanna has something of a past with sportsmen. As well as the LeBron rumours, she enjoyed a romance with baseball player Matt Kemp in 2011 and was rumoured to have dated basketball star Rashard Lewis briefly in 2009.
Karim meanwhile shares a one-year-old daughter with his former girlfriend, Chloé de Launay.
The footballer was also spotted meeting up with some friends at favourite spot Hooray Henry's in West Hollywood over the weekend.
Looking like he was enjoying a rare night away from Rihanna, Karim was dressed for his boys' night out in a monochrome printed t-shirt and jeans, with a backwards facing baseball cap.
