Drake’s romantic feelings for Rihanna do not even come close to the way he felt about the likes of Nicki Minaj and Serena Williams, it has been alleged.
The rapper, who confessed his love for Rihanna at this year’s Video Music Awards , according to Daily Mail , made it known to the world that he wants to spend the rest of his life with the “What’s My Name?” hitmaker, continuing by saying he’s been in love with her since the age of 22.
While it has been rumored for months that the twosome have enjoyed an on-again, off-again romance following their collaborative efforts on two songs this past year, things are starting to heat up for Drake and Rihanna as their relationship takes its biggest step yet.

Sources reveal how the “Views” rapper is ready to settle down with Rihanna, convinced that his feelings are so strong for the 28-year-old, he can not see himself being with anybody else — not even tennis champion Serena Williams, who the rapper dated for several of months last year .
Out of all the famous women Drake has hooked up with over the years, none of them come close to how Rihanna makes him feel, a source reveals. The Canadian-born artist has often said that Rihanna has this empowerment over him that turns him into a little boy again. On top of that, she’s a great person with a big heart, and from that alone, Drake knows she’s the one .
“Drake thought she looked so spectacular in her evening gown and wanted to call her Mrs. Graham so bad when he presented her with her award, but had to catch himself before he slipped up,” the insider tells Hollywood Life . “She exuded wife material last night and that’s something he’s never felt for Nicki, Serena or any other woman he’s liked or been with. But he felt that for Ri.”

“He’s really in love Rihanna and is fighting his player ways and all the temptations that come his way to be with her,” the insider concluded, following reports that Rihanna is playing hard to get, despite having mentioned in the past that she often thinks about having children shortly.
Earlier this year, it was said that Rihanna was strongly considering the idea of finally settling down, adding that she’s quickly approaching her 30s, and with all the success she’s had in her career since the age of 18, getting married and having kids plays a huge role in the things she sees herself committing her time to in the near future.
Will it be with Drake?

Rihanna has remained rather quiet about her feelings for Drake over social media; which is quite the opposite from the rapper, who has posted endless photos of the singer on his Instagram account, using his online presence to shower the singer with love again.
Fans are aware that Drake is in love with Rihanna — so much that he can even see himself marrying her at some point, but whether or not the 28-year-old feels the same way has yet to be determined, especially since she’s often known to prefer friends with benefits relationships.
Her hectic career has kept her away from settling down and committing her time to just one boyfriend, but as her tour concludes later this year, Rihanna is likely to make family life a priority of hers, having practically earned every award and accolade there is.
