RIHANNA, CHRIS BROWN: Husband and Wife?

Did Rihanna and Chris Brown get married while reconciling last week at Sean "Diddy" Combs' Miami mansion? Star magazine is reporting that after a tearful apology, Brown proposed to Rihanna, who accepted. The two then arranged a impromptu wedding, with a minister performing a ceremony in Diddy's crib.

A source tells Star, "All she's ever wanted was to be with him forever. Rihanna is looking for the husband-and-two-kids deal before she turns 25. She believes in fairy tales, and she wants to live hers with Chris. She was totally up front and confessed to him, 'I can't live without you.'"

Meanwhile, Rihanna has allegedly told friends that Brown had beaten her in the past, but she didn't dump him because she enjoyed his emotional apologies. According to the National Enquirer, when a friend confronted Rihanna about a black eye Brown had given her, she replied, "It's not his fault. When he hurts me, he's a beast, but then he turns into my angel... He'll hit me and then feel bad afterwards, but then he turns into the sweetest man and becomes my angel. He'll cry like a little baby when he makes it up to me, and that's the part I love." --Chris Morrow
