Drake and Bella Hadid news: Are rapper and supermodel really dating?

Drake and Bella Hadid have tongues wagging with reports of the two dating.

Drake has always had an interesting love life, to say the least. From being linked constantly to global pop star Rihanna to sparking rumors about a short-lived romance with the ageless Jennifer Lopez, the Canadian rapper's romantic life is certainly an eventful one. The latest buzz on the street is that he's getting cozy with supermodel and social media fixture, Hadid.

Talk about the two's budding romance started around June this year when paparazzi caught them dining together at an L.A. restaurant called The Nice Guy. After the supposed dinner, Hadid left the eatery first, getting into what was believed to be Drake's vehicle. The rapper followed suit a couple of minutes after as he got into another car. What's worth noting about the incident is that the rumored couple wore matching outfits on their evening together.

A source told Us Weekly that Hadid 21st birthday bash at the Socialista Lounge in New York last Monday was planned and paid for by Drake. Another report, coming from Page Six, confirmed that not only did the party happen but Drake was also in attendance.

Another incident that has added fire to the already big romance flame is that last Wednesday's episode of "Watch What Happens Live," where host Andy Cohen asked Hadid's mother, Yolanda, about her daughter's love life.

When Cohen asked about Hadid's rumored romance with Drake, Yolanda became flustered and tried to worm her way out of the question by giving the most original answer, saying, "They're friends."

Interestingly, on the same episode, Cohen asked Yolanda if Hadid has moved on from her previous relationship with The Weeknd or if she's upset that the singer is currently dating another pop star, Selena Gomez. Yolanda's short and telling answer was, "Not anymore."

While it's too early to confirm the relationship, all signs point to something going on between them. Once a diss track comes out from Drake, maybe that's the confirmation everyone's waiting for.
