In news that is likely to cause much head-shaking and concern, Rihanna has apparently reunited with Chris Brown, who allegedly assaulted her on Feb. 8. People reports the pair is currently "spending time" at a home owned by Diddy in an undisclosed location.
"They're together again. They care for each other," a source tells the magazine, before unsettlingly adding, "While Chris is reflective and saddened about what happened, he is really happy to be with the woman he loves."
Brown, 19, supposedly reached out to Rihanna last Friday as she marked her 21st birthday, an occasion she celebrated with friends during a beach getaway to Punta Mita, Mexico, over the weekend.
"He called to wish her happy birthday," an insider relays to the mag. "They've reached out to each other. It's been mutual."
Brown, who was booked for making criminal threats following the incident, remains under investigation by the Los Angeles police department.
According to the New York Daily News, the R&B singer recently attended his first anger-management session, a move seemingly designed to burnish his tarnished image.
"Words cannot begin to express how sorry and saddened I am over what transpired," Brown said a week after the purported altercation. "I am seeking the counseling of my pastor, my mother and other loved ones and I am committed, with God's help, to emerging a better person."
Rihanna has yet to comment on the incident, despite a disturbing picture of her bruised and battered face leaking online last week.
In a statement, her rep assured fans that "she remains strong, is doing well, and deeply appreciates the outpouring of support she has received during this difficult time."
