Rihanna keeping a close eye on Drake and Bella Harris amid dating rumours?

Rihanna is reportedly unhappy after Drake was romantically linked to Bella B Harris. The God's Plan hitmaker and the model daughter of famed music producer Jimmy Jam made headlines after she shared pictures of the duo cuddled up on Instagram recently.

In one image, the Canadian artist is seen leaning onto her. In another image, Drake is seen grinning and posing with her. She captioned the image: "no place I'd rather be"

According to a report in Hollywood Life, the Barbadian beauty hopes that they are not dating. A source said: "Drake wouldn't just catch the wrath of Bella's dad Jimmy if he dated her, he'd infuriate Rihanna too. Rihanna is keeping a close eye on Bella and Drake to make sure neither one steps out of line. Ri is friends with Bella's dad and she knows Bella too. She's protective of her and would freak out if Drake started dating her, she's too young for him."

"Of course Bella's absolutely stunning so if Drake went against all good judgment and did start dating her no doubt it would make Rihanna pretty jealous," the insider added.

Drake had confessed that he is in love with Rihanna at the MTV Video Music Awards 2016 held at Madison Square Garden on August 28 in New York City. The rapper presented the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award to her at the event and talked about how he first met Rihanna.

"The first time I met Robyn Fenty [Rihanna's real name] was in 2005," he said. "She was shooting a music video at a restaurant called Avocado in Toronto. The song was 'Pon de Replay' and the director was Little X. I was introduced to her... It's hard to believe that 11 years later we'd come together to create the visual for a song called 'Work.' Today the world knows X as Director X... 11 years later, they still know Rihanna as the one and only Rihanna."

"She succeeds by doing something which no one in this industry does, which is be herself. She's someone I've been in love with since I was 22 years old," he added. "She's one of my best friends in the world. All the adult life I've looked up to her even though she's younger than me."
