Chris Brown Says Rihanna Has Forgiven Him For Beating Her But The Public Has Not

Rihanna and Chris Brown

R&B singer and felon, Chris Brown, did an interview with the Mirror newspaper in the UK, where he spoke of the 2009 domestic violence incident between himself and girlfriend, music model, Rihanna. Brown is still on probation over the case and faces a violation hearing regarding it.

This week, Brown stated of the fight, "It was the deepest regret of my life, the biggest mistake...Sometimes you row, you fight, with the one you love and things get said, stuff spirals. But she loves me -- what can I say? I’m forgiven ... but, yes, I worked hard for it...People attack me and criticise me, it happens all the time ... But they don’t know me, and they don’t know us. It doesn’t bother me any more ... Other people can judge us but they don’t know anything."
