Chris Brown recently opened up about his 2009 assault on Rihanna, calling it his “greatest regret.” 

“People attack me and criticize me, it happens all the time. But they don’t know me, and they don’t know us. It doesn’t bother me anymore. Other people can judge us but they don’t know anything,” Brown said.

Brown, who is still on probation for the horrific attack , told The Mirror,  “Sometimes you row, you fight, with the one you love and things get said, stuff spirals.”

Chris added that Rihanna had forgiven him for his misdoings after many months of “serious making up.”

“That night was the deepest regret of my life, the biggest mistake,” he told the UK publication. “But she loves me — what can I say? I’m forgiven… but, yes, I worked hard for it.”

Brown is aware that a majority of the public has not forgiven him for what he did to his then-girlfriend four years ago.

Rihanna revealed to Rolling Stone last month that being with Chris Brown makes her happy and “if it’s a mistake, it’s my mistake.”

The singer also added it would be a deal-breaker if Chris were to display any indication of his past behavior again.

“He doesn’t have the luxury of [bleeping] up again,” she said. “That’s just not an option. I can’t say that nothing else will ever go wrong. But I’m pretty solid in the knowing that he’s disgusted by that.”

Brown told Page Six on Oscar night at Elton John’s AIDS Foundation Bash, “We are really happy. She is the most beautiful girl in the world.”
