Police probe whether Rihanna was wearing an eye patch last year to cover domestic abuse injury
The story is becoming sadder by the day. Police are apparently looking into the domestic abuse element of their case against Chris Brown and are investigating whether when Rihanna appeared at last year's American Music Awards she was wearing an eye patch to cover an injury from Chris Brown rather than the scratched cornea it was put down to at the time.
A police source said: "We’re investigating if her eye injury could have been caused by Brown.
"There could be an innocent explanation — but police believe Rihanna has previously refused to make a complaint against Brown. She is now being asked about her past injuries and is beginning to open up about incidents in their relationship."
Another police source said: "We’re talking to her friends and management, who say she’s appeared with mysterious marks or injuries before, but always refused to explain what happened.
"There was one instance when she suddenly appeared with an eye patch, saying her cornea had been scratched."
R&B singer Brown, 19, was released on bail after turning himself in to police last Sunday. Reports suggest that he may have punched, choked, bitten and even threatened to kill 20-year-old 'Umbrella' singer Rihanna in a row last Saturday night.
We hope Rihanna is OK...
