Rihanna ended her 2-year relationship with and Brown in 2009 after he assaulted her during a dispute. The incident saw Brown convicted of domestic assault and surprisingly has not deterred Rihanna from associating with him.

"Absolutely," Rihanna tearfully responded when asked whether Brown is the love of her life."I think he was the love of my life. He was the first love and I see that he loved me the same way. We were very young and very spontaneous. We ran free. We ran wild. We were falling in love going in at a really rapid pace and we forgot about ourselves as individuals."

The 24-year-old admitted to catching up with Brown during recent trip to St. Tropez and says that she still gets flustered whenever they meet.

"My stomach drops. I have to maintain this poker face and not let it get to the outer part of me," she said.

Brown is now dating 24-year-old model Karrueche Tran but despite their relationship, he has maintained a close bond with Rihanna.

"He's in a relationship on his own. I'm single," Rihanna told Winfrey before going on to emphasize that they regularly see each other and are "very close."

Recent reports suggested that Brown and Rihanna were caught kissing on Malaysian billionaire Taek Jho Low's yacht while in St Tropez, and despite Rihanna admitting that the pair hung out Brown's representative stated otherwise at the time.

"[Chris Brown] is in France to shoot a music video for [the] Swizz Beatz album and Ludacris is in it. It's Swizz's song. [Chris's girlfriend] Karrueche [Tran] is there with him … They never broke up. He is not on [Rihanna's] yacht. There is no Rihanna connection," Brown's rep told HollyScoop.com.
