Chris Brown reacts to Rihanna's shock Super Bowl pregnancy 14 years after vile assault

Chris Brown jumped straight on Instagram when his ex Rihanna revealed she was expecting her second child at the Super Bowl.

The Love on the Brain star, 34, showed off her blossoming baby bump during her epic halftime show in Arizona, US on Sunday.

Fans went wild over the shock reveal - and so did She Ain't You star Chris, 33.

Posting emojis of a red heart and praying hands, the father-of-three gushed: "GO GIRL".

But it's not the first time the singer has responded to RiRi's baby news.

In May 2022, Chris congratulated his ex and her boyfriend A$AP Rocky on the birth of their first child.

However, in 2009 the former couple sent shockwaves through the music industry when Chris admitted to beating Rihanna on the night of the Grammys.

The violent ordeal saw Brown arrested and placed on probation for five years and sentenced to six months community service.

Chris described his vicious assault on Rihanna as the “greatest regret” of his life after the couple tried to start afresh in 2012.

He told the Mirror: “Sometimes you row, you fight, with the one you love and things get said, stuff spirals.

“That night was the deepest regret of my life, the biggest mistake."

However, despite trying to work things out, the couple split for good in 2013 and both moved on with their lives.

Chris now has three kids with three different women.

Rihanna, meanwhile, is preparing to become a mum for the second time with A$AP Rocky.

The couple welcomed their son last year, who is now set to become a big brother.

During her epic Super Bowl show on Sunday, Rihanna stunned fans as she was lowered from a floating platform, clad in red leather.

As she opened her jacket, her beautiful baby bump was revealed - sending fans into a frenzy.

One Twitter user wrote: "Feel like Rihanna revealed her pregnancy like Beyonce did... the whole revealing the area then going ahead to rub the belly, yup."

While another said: "Ok so Rihanna is in fact pregnant. OMG she was literally mothering."

The show was RiRi's first time performing live on TV in five years as she followed the likes of Beyonce, Justin Timberlake and last year's show of Dre Dre, Eminem, Snoop Dogg and Mary J Blige to be watched by millions of people across the world.

Speaking to Apple Music ahead of her performance, the star revealed 400 people had been involved in the epic production process.
