Chris Brown hopes to be back with Rihanna

WASHINGTON - Chris Brown, who assaulted his ex girlfriend/singer Rihanna in February, has said that he wants to reunite with her.

“Us being friends for so long and not being able to see her and not speak to her, it’s hard… It’s difficult,” Contactmusic quoted him as telling in an interview with Larry King.

When the veteran newsman asked him if he ever hoped to be back with the ‘Disturbia’ singer, he said: “I’m young, I’m 20, (but) yes.”

He added he was “definitely” still in love with the pop sensation.

Court ordered Brown to stay away from Rihanna for the duration of his five-year probation period after he pleaded guilty of assaulting her, after a pre-Grammy Awards party in Los Angeles on 8 February. (ANI)
