Drake definitely did not hold back when showing love for his longtime rumored girlfriend Rihanna at the MTV Video Music Awards Sunday night and even after.

None other than Drake presented Rihanna with the Michael Jackson Vanguard Award. He introduced her as “someone I’ve been in love with since I was 22-years-old…”

Rihanna was clearly surprised and smiled as she fidgeted a little bit.

He added, “She’s one of my best friends in the world. All my adult life I looked up to her even though she’s younger than me. She’s a living, breathing legend in our industry. Ladies and gentlemen, the recipient for the Michael Jackson Vanguard Award for 2016…Rihanna.”

They turned up their affection when she kissed him on the cheek and he couldn’t help but take it a step further and elongate the hug.

He returned the kiss in an Instagram photo he shared hours after the show ended.

He added the caption, “This is a night for us all to be thankful for what you have done for us! You have affected so many of our lives in the best way possible. Tonight we celebrate you! @badgalriri”
