Did Rihanna and A$AP Rocky Just Get Married in His New ‘D.M.B.’ Music Video?

If you’re lucky enough to date—let alone have a child with—Rihanna, dedicating a music video to pay homage to your epic romance is the least you can do. And that’s exactly what A$AP Rocky did. With the release of his new single “D.M.B.” (short for dats mah bish), the Harlem-born rapper debuted accompanying visuals starring his superstar girlfriend as they romp around New York together, dressed to the nines and so in love.

Written, directed, and executive produced by Rocky himself, the video was shot in New York last summer. You might recall the couple getting photographed around the city while filming in incredible outfits, including a pink fur coat and lime green high heel ensemble Rih was seen wearing on a fire escape. Best believe that, with Rihanna involved, the video is just as much about the fashion as it is about the music. And with one scene featuring the Fenty Beauty mogul suited up in a boardroom, “D.M.B.” honored her savvy as a businesswoman too.

According to the press release, “The video is an ode to the classic love story, with Rocky and Rihanna depicting true ride-or-die characters in a devoted relationship despite their circumstances.” Indeed, as scenes flash across the screen, we see the duo sharing drinks on a fire escape, getting cozy in a hair salon, smoking together under dim lights, her running into his arms when he gets out of jail, enjoying a fancy private dinner, and much more.

But let’s get to the juicy part: Toward the end, Rihanna and Rocky portray a wedding scene. And with two fashion killers like these, the nuptial looks are far from traditional. He wears a tailcoat and sunglasses with grills that say “Marry Me?” in gold; she’s a vision in a red halter dress and veil adorned with feathers, plus a diamond encrusted “I DO” on her own teeth. As they walk down a hallway together, people shower them with rose petals, and Rih smiles with a bouquet of roses in hand.

Viewers are bound to ask: Is the couple winking at a real-life wedding between them that went down in secret? Considering the ambitious concept behind the video, the sequence was probably just part of the fictional story that the duo played out on screen. But hey, you never know—these two like to keep us on our toes. They haven’t publicly addressed the wedding scene at the time of writing, but Rocky shared a brief thank you to Rihanna on Instagram after “D.M.B.” dropped today: “THANK$ 2 MY LADY FOR THE MOTIVATION & ROLE.”

Fans know that this isn’t Rihanna’s first time appearing in Rocky’s visuals. She also starred in his 2013 “Fashion Killa” video, in which she and the rapper go all out on a shopping spree.

Now the question is, when (or if?) Rihanna finally releases new music again, could A$AP Rocky, or maybe even their kid, make a similar cameo?
