Nothing is official yet, but reports are coming in and the word is that R&B star Rihanna has moved on and with a new man. That man? Los Angeles Laker Andrew Bynum. According to reports the two have been friends for a while, but now that Rihanna is single, their relationship might have become more serious. Sources report the “couple” have been getting closer to each other every day.

So far the evidence isn’t much, but it’s worth paying attention too. First up, the two were seen coming and leaving together from Baron Davis‘ birthday party last week. Not very convincing evidence. But then they were seen together again last Friday. Witnesses saw the two at Mastro’s Steakhouse in Beverly Hills and according to one witness “They looked very couple-y, sitting real close to each other in the car.”

Now if you remember, early reports were saying that Chris Brown and Rihanna were still together. However, the two have not been seen together in weeks and according to some, Chris Brown has been seeing a new girl. So it would make sense that Rihanna would be moving on now too. And good for her I say. I know it can be hard to leave an abusive relationship, so I’m glad she is showing some strength.

Still, nothing is official yet. Reporters asking Bynum if the two are now dating have been told a short and simple, “No.” Of course, that doesn’t mean much. After all, it would be more than understandable if the two didn’t want to make their relationship public just quite yet.
