The Couple’s History

Rihanna and Brown split in 2009 after he physically assaulted her during an argument about a text message from another girl. Rumors have swirled since then that the two music stars had secretly gotten back together, though Brown is very public about his relationship with model Karrueche Tran.

In 2009, Rihanna described Brown’s attack to ABC’s Diane Sawyer, saying: “He was clearly blacked out. There was no person when I looked at him. It was almost as if he had nothing to lose. He had so much to lose. But it was almost as if he had nothing to lose. It wasn’t the same person that says I loved you. It definitely wasn’t those eyes.”

At the time, Rihanna said she was unsure if she could ever be with Brown again. “You never know what the future holds. He was my best friend, the person I loved. We spent two years of our lives together,” she said. Adding, “I don’t have a desire at all to be with him … I don’t see how we could get back together. But I’m not God, so I can’t predict the future.”
