Rihanna tweets throwback snap of her holding hands with Chris Brown during their brief reunion

As she holidays in Barbados with friends, Rihanna uploaded a picture of herself and Chris Brown holding hands to her Twitter account on Thursday.

Failing to adhere to the notion of the Instagram trend known as throwback Thursday, the 24-year-old opted to post an image of her and Chris Brown, 23, taken only seven days before.

Taking part in the popular activity in which Instagram users post snaps to the application as they reminisce over the past, Rihanna appears to be deeply missing Chris Brown.

In the black and white image Chris Brown’s hand can been seen resting on Rihanna’s thigh as she places her hand over his.

The caption which accompanied the image read: “#THROWBACKtolastTHURSDAY.”

Last Tuesday Rihanna posted a similar snap to her Instagram account which saw her snuggling with what appeared to be Brown’s tattooed arm.

“Damn……. I miss my n***a #thuglife #BFFlife,” the pop star tweeted to her 27.1 million followers.

Also taking part in the social network tradition Chris Brown further fuelled the Rihanna rumor mill on Thursday by posting a loving picture of the pair, sparking claims they may have reconciled.

In fact, the picture is believed to have been taken in Paris, just a day before the pair sensationally split after Rihanna heard Sweet Love rapper Chris partied with scantily-clad female models and lunched with ex Karrauche Tran in Dubai.

Too add further mystery, to what could be seen as a “forgive me” post, Chris Brown deleted the picture after just 15 minutes.
