Singer Rihanna reportedly wants former boyfriend and singer Chris Brown to ‘thrive’ now that he is out of jail, but is maintaining a “major distance” between them.

She certainly wants him to thrive and have a good life. She wishes him well but from a major distance,” said a source. The two dated from 2008 until he assaulted her in 2009, and although they reconciled a few times later, they finally split in 2012. “They’re not together and that chapter of her life has been long and gone. She doesn’t hate the boy - yeah, he’s a boy - but she doesn’t hate him,” said a source. Brown was sent back to jail after being thrown out of court-ordered rehab in March but is said to be determined to stay on the right track now and he wants to be a better person.
