According to several rumors Rihanna has a new man in her life. Does that mean she has finally moved past her split from Chris Brown? Hollywood Life reports that the "Umbrella" singer is now dating her ex-boyfriend Dudley O'Shaughnessy.
The two met in 2011 on the set of the singer's music video for "We Found Love." She reportedly hand-picked the British model to star in the steamy video as her boy toy and they really hit it off. Not long after working on the video together they were spotted in London together igniting rumors that they were a couple.
Rihanna has been overseas promoting a clothing line and is said to have linked up with O'Shaughnessy.
"It's been easy for them to rekindle their romance and take things from where they left off," the source told Hollywood Life. "She goes weak at the knees for him, his crazy accent and only has good things to say about him. Ri has been keeping her options open."
The source said that the two were really good together and only ended their romance because of hectic traveling schedules but remained friends. It seems like the 23-year-old hunk has strong feelings for the singer. The insider revealed that O'Shaughnessy "always looks back fondly on their time together and is excited to be speaking to her again."
During a 2011 interview with The Evening Standard, it was obvious the model was smitten over the star. He gushed about how it was to be on set with her and how he "didn't want the sex scenes to end," the Daily Mail reports.
When asked how he coped with the steamy scenes with Rihanna he said "You've just got to get into it."
"It took about three-and-a-half days to film. I loved it," he said. "I didn't want it to end. Not just because it was 'a certain person's' video but just because I love being on set."
He even had some kind words to say about the "Stay" singer telling the British newspaper how sweet she really is.
"She's just such a nice girl. It's not like just because she's achieved so much she thinks her shit don't stink," he said. "She's such a humble, down-to-earth girl and that made it even better for me because I didn't feel intimidated or anything. We just got along. We were likes mates."
