This news may have you in your feelings: Drake is romancing a special someone.

E! News can confirm the rapper closed down RPM Italian in Washington, D.C. this week for a private dinner with 18-year-old model Bella Harris. A source says Drake waited for the upscale eatery to "clear out" before heading into the main dining room on Monday evening, where Bella then joined him. 

The rumored couple noshed on RPM Italian specialties such as roasted salmon, corn agnolotti, picatta moderno and whipped potatoes before being escorted out together, our insider shares. Drake, who visited the nation's capital while in between tour stops, returned to the restaurant the following evening with Bella and a group of friends. 

Bella, who graduated from high school in June and has posed for the likes of Calvin Klein, Guess and Forever 21, was first romantically linked to the 31-year-old hip-hop sensation last month. 

Rihanna's Savage x Fenty FW18 show placed women's bodies on display, celebrating their form, rather than objectifying their sexuality.

Considering that models  Slick Woods bared a lot of skin wearing lace, fish net and see-through lingerie on the catwalk, conversations on the epic event managed to center on female empowerment—that may be a first.

"Women are the strongest people on earth," the "Wild Thoughts" singer told E! News backstage. "Our bodies alone are made to do so many different things and they're designed in so many different, unique ways. It is about time that we celebrate that."

To achieve her mission, she invited women of all shapes and sizes to her runway, including pregnant women.

"If you have the blessing to being life into this world, it should be celebrated as well," she stated.

It doesn't take much to make Sofia Richie's heart sing, and even still it's obvious she's head over heels for boyfriend Scott Disick.

E! News was on hand as the 20-year-old model helped Marzook celebrate their collection launch (who she has a collaboration with) at Bergdorf Goodman during New York Fashion Week, where she described a typical date night for the couple. 

Richie said "it depends" on what she's in the mood for, but confessed she's a total sucker for a simple movie and dinner date with the E! reality star. Her go-to ensemble for an evening with Scott? "Jeans, heels and something casual," Sofia told us. 

Lionel Richie's daughter wouldn't describe herself as a hopeless romantic, revealing that it's Scott who really goes all out for their dates. "My God!" she exclaimed. "It's too much stress [to plan dates.] So much stress."

Almost a year has passed since Scott and Sofia were first romantically linked. Since then, the inseparable duo has emerged as one of Hollywood's most stylish couples.  

"We're very different when it comes to style," Richie dished, "but we're similar in the sense where we can really dress it up or really dress it down and feel confident and comfortable." 

Sofia has previously opened up about her and the Keeping Up With the Kardashian fan-favorite's similarities. In an interview with E! News she described herself as "the male version" of Disick, saying their sense of humor is what originally brought them together. 

The results of New York's Democratic primary are in: Cynthia Nixon has lost to the sitting Governor of New York Andrew Cuomo.

The Sex and the City star first announced her candidacy for governor of New York back in March with a campaign video. "New York is my home, I've never lived anywhere else," Cynthia said. "When I grew up here, it was just my mom and me in a one-bedroom, fifth floor walk-up. New York is where I was raised and where I'm raising my kids. I'm a proud public school graduate and a prouder public school parent."

"I was given chances I just don't see for most of New York's kids today," she continued. "Our leaders are letting us down. We are now the most unequal state in the entire country, with both incredible wealth and extreme poverty. Half the kids in our upstate cities live below the poverty line. How did we let this happen? I love New York. I've never wanted to live anywhere else, but something has to change."

Nixon went on to state in the campaign video, "We want our government to work again, on health care, ending mass incarceration, fixing our broken subway. We are sick of politicians who care more about headlines and power than they do about us."

In May, Nixon lost the Democratic party nomination for governor of New York to Cuomo. Nixon had failed to earn the 25 percent of delegate votes that were required in order to guarantee a spot on the primary ballot during the Democratic state convention. As a result, Nixon had to get thousands of petition signatures in order to get on the ballot.

Minutes before the results came in, Cynthia took to Twitter to write: "I want to thank all of the #TeamCynthia volunteers, supporters, and voters who dedicated their time to championing the progressive message of our campaign. I'm so proud of all the work we've done to build a New York that works for all of us. #CynthiaForNY."

A source tells E! News the exes have "been talking more," following Long's recent breakup from CHVRCHES artist Lauren Mayberry. According to the insider, "They are both single and they are spending time together," but "that's all it is for now."

Their reunion is not a huge surprise, considering that even after ending their on-and-off relationship, the pair remained friends and "stayed in touch" over the years. They have even "worked together and bounced ideas off of each other from time to time," reveals the insider. 

While not all exes are able to accomplish this, the source says the two forged a "very special connection and bond that never went away." Not to mention, Drew has "a fondness for him and he's always been in her life even if they weren't a couple."

The actors met on the set of He's Just Not That Into You in 2008, which Barrymore co-produced, before embarking on a two year relationship. Admittedly, the duo had their fair share of ups and downs, with the pair breaking up on the reg. However, they always maintained their adoration for one another. "She's effortlessly charming and easy to be around...She has this amazing ability to make anyone feel like at ease," Long told Ellen DeGeneres in 2009. 

They later rekindled their romance on the set of Going the Distance in 2010, which gave Justin the opportunity to be Drew's date when she won a Golden Globe for her performance in Grey Gardens. Unfortunately, not long after that the couple called it quits for good.

Months later, Drew started dating her now-ex-husband Kopelman and was engaged by 2012. During her marriage to the art consultant and son of former Chanel CEO Arie Kopelman, the two welcomed daughters Olive and Frankie. 

The husband and wife eventually divorced in 2016, after just three years of marriage.
