In 2015, the singer and soccer star fuelled rumours they were dating after being spotted together on several occasions. But according to the Spanish publication Don Balon Rosa, the striking duo never made things official because of her ex-boyfriend Chris Brown.
The publication reported: “Rihanna loved Karim, and with him, she had a lot of fun. “But she told him she did not want to break his heart, and she confessed that she’ll always love Chris Brown. “Rihanna said it was difficult to compete.” Later that year, Rihanna was linked to another rapper: Drake. Benzema went on to date his partner Cora Gauthier.
