Okay, so I was scrolling through my phone the other day, and I stumbled upon some old photos from back in 2010. It was a total blast from the past. I started reminiscing about all the buzz surrounding Matt Kemp and Rihanna’s relationship. You remember that, right? It felt like everyone was talking about them.
I got curious and started digging around. I mean, I was there for the whole thing, but I wanted to piece it all together again. I went through old articles, interviews, and even some fan forums – you know, just to get the full picture. It was like stepping into a time machine. I had to know everything from the beginning to the end and what they are doing now.
I started by trying to figure out when they first got together. As far as I recall, it was sometime in early 2010. They were spotted together at a few events, looking all cozy and happy. I found an old interview where Matt confirmed it. He said, “Yeah! That’s my girl!” about Rihanna. How cute is that? I totally shipped them at the time.
Then, I looked into their time together. They were always at these glamorous events, looking like the ultimate power couple. I remember seeing photos of them at basketball games, parties, and even on vacation. It seemed like they were everywhere. I even found some stuff about them sharing their private life on social media. It was all so public, yet it felt like we were getting a real glimpse into their relationship.
Of course, I had to find out how it ended. It was around late 2010 when things started to fizzle out. I gathered that their busy schedules were a major factor. Rihanna was touring, and Matt was in the middle of his baseball season. It’s tough to maintain a relationship when you’re both so busy with your careers. I felt for them, to be honest. It’s a story many of us can relate to, even if we aren’t international superstars.
I also wanted to see what they’ve been up to since then. Matt Kemp, what a career he’s had! I read that he’s still involved with the Dodgers, not playing but in a different role. He’s made quite a name for himself in baseball, playing in big league with the Rockies during the shortened 2020 season. It’s impressive how he’s managed to stay relevant in the sport for so long. I even saw that he’s seventh on the list of most home runs in Dodger history with 203. That’s huge!
And Rihanna, well, she’s just been dominating the music industry and beyond. I saw that she’s launched a successful beauty and fashion empire. She’s not just a singer anymore; she’s a businesswoman, an icon. It’s amazing to see how much she’s grown since her early days.
Here are some of the things I learned about them individually:
- Matt Kemp:
- Talented MLB player.
- Had a significant relationship with Rihanna in 2010.
- Continued his baseball career, achieving notable success.
- Still ranks seventh on the list of most home runs in Dodger history.
- Rihanna:

- Dated Matt Kemp in 2010.
- Expanded her career beyond music into fashion and beauty.
- Became a global icon and successful businesswoman.
It was fascinating to piece all of this together, to see how their paths crossed and then diverged. Both Matt Kemp and Rihanna have achieved so much, and it all started from those early days when they were the talk of the town. I really enjoyed doing this. You know, I’ve always been intrigued by their story. Revisiting it brought back so many memories. I thought you might find it interesting, too, so I decided to share my little deep dive with you.
Their Lives Now
In early 2024, the Dodgers hired Kemp for a third time, showing his lasting impact on the team. Rihanna continues to make waves in both the music and business worlds, proving her versatility and influence.
Going through all this made me realize how much has changed over the years. It’s wild to think about how much Matt Kemp and Rihanna have accomplished since their relationship. It’s a reminder that time moves on, and people grow and evolve. I’m glad I took this trip down memory lane. It was a fun and enlightening experience.
