Rihanna and Chris Brown off to Barbados for NYE

Rihanna is reportedly planning to spend New Year with Chris Brown in her native Barbados.

According to The Sun, the Diamonds singer has secured a luxury five-star villa on the island's exclusive Gold Coast for a "bonding holiday" with Breezy.

It is thought that RiRi is also planning to fly Brown's mother Joyce Hawkins out to Barbados to join them, so their families can spend some time together.


The Bajan babe has faced some criticism for allegedly rekindling her romance with Chris after his 2009 assault on her, with the star even collaborating with him on a track for her new LP, Unapologetic.

A source told the newspaper: "The more the public criticise Rihanna for getting back with Chris, the more determined she is to do whatever she wants.

“While no one else can understand it, she’s convinced that Chris is the love of her life and her soulmate and that they’re simply meant to be together.

“She’s booked him and his mum into a five-star villa in Barbados over New Year so they can all get some downtime with her family."

They added: "But they’re unrepentant and they want to show the whole world that they’ve moved on from what happened in 2009.”
