If only we could all be so lucky as to have Drake love us.

While performing a concert in Dublin Monday night, the Canadian rapper took time to shout out his love for Rihanna on her 29th birthday. Even though the pair spilt up months ago and Drake has recently been linked to Jennifer Lopez, there is obviously no love loss between the two exes.

A fan filmed the sweet moment in which Drake told the crowd it was someone's birthday that he "has a lot of love and respect for." And then, instead of singing the traditional "Happy Birthday" song, Drizzy decided to have the crowd sing Rihanna's part of their joint song "Work". Awwwww.

These two are the true definition of #exgoals.
