Well this is horrible news.

Chris Brown sent fans into a tizzy when he commented a heart emoji on one of Rihanna's recent sexy Instagram photos, and now we're learning it wasn't totally out of the blue. In fact, the exes are apparently on very friendly terms. Barf!

"Chris and Rihanna continue to be in frequent contact with each other. They are extremely supportive of each other’s projects. There is a lot of history between the two of them. Rihanna is aware that there will be concern about her friendship with Chris, but she can handle herself," a source dished to Us Weekly.

The singers dated from 2008 to 2009, before splitting when CB was arrested for assaulting her in his car the night before the Grammys. They briefly reconciled in 2012, but broke up for the last time in 2013.

Breezy went on to date Karrueche Tran, while RiRi was linked to Leonardo DiCaprio, Drake, and most recently billionaire Saudi businessman Hassan Jameel.

In the words of Selena Gomez, sometimes the heart wants what it wants! Let's just hope neither of them act on it...
