Rihanna’s man Matt Kemp opened up to the media at a red carpet event this week and admitted that Rihanna is his girlfriend:

When asked if he and Rihanna were official, Kemp told UsMagazine.com, “Yeah! That’s my girl!”

The baseball star gushed to Us of the singer, “She’s just a fun person. I love to be around her.”

Right now, the pair have to contend with long-distance love: Rihanna, 22, is currently on her world tour. “She’s definitely not gonna be here for a little while. Hopefully when she gets back she’ll at a couple [more] games,” Kemp told Us. (She was spotted cheering him on at an April 14 game.)

Kemp added: “She’s definitely a great person in my life, and I’m happy I’m with her.”
