Rihanna and Chris Brown are back together!!!

The on-again couple have reunited at one of Sean “Diddy” Combs’s homes almost three weeks after Chris, 19, allegedly assaulted Rihanna, 21, on Feb. 8.

“They’re together again. They care for each other,” a source tells People. “While Chris is reflective and saddened about what happened, he is really happy to be with the woman he loves.”

Chris also called Rihanna on her 21st birthday one week ago. A source reveals, “He called to wish her happy birthday. They’ve reached out to each other. It’s been mutual.”

A bikini-clad Rihanna was last seen relaxing in Mexico.

UPDATE: Us Weekly reports that Rihanna and Chris are at Diddy’s home on Star Island near Miami, Florida. “She’s not listening to anyone,” says a Rihanna pal. “And of course Puff got involved in this.” Chris has been seen smiling and riding a jet ski. Rihanna reportedly arrived four days ago.

Rihanna will head back to Los Angeles for Chris Brown’s March 5 court date.

A source tells the Daily News that she has to testify and that if Chris is convicted, he won’t face jail time because the Feb. 8 altercation was his first offense.

Meanwhile, per the suggestion of his crisis PR rep Michael Sitrick, Chris attended his first anger management class Monday afternoon in Glendale, Calif. The 19-year-old singer has not been ordered to go, but the effort might help him look better to the public and in court.

Rihanna’s 21st birthday is today, so her close friends placed a birthday greeting in the local Barbados paper, the Nation News [via Us]. The message reads:

“Happy 21 Birthday to Robyn Rihanna Fenty.
Amidst all the negativity about Ri Ri.
God will continue to bless her.
That’s why you are so great, Ri Ri.
From Sharon, Shane, Kim and Rashane.
We love you.”

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, RIHANNA! Stay strong.

Los Angeles Police have launched an internal investigation Thursday to determine who leaked a photo of a bruised Rihanna post-altercation.

“The photograph has the appearance of one taken during an official Domestic Violence investigation. The Los Angeles Police Department takes seriously its duty to maintain the confidentiality of victims of domestic violence,” the LAPD said in a statement Thursday. “The Department launched an immediate internal investigation and subsequently filed a personnel complaint. A violation of this type is considered serious misconduct, with penalties up to and including termination.”

Gayle King, aka Oprah’s BFF, has rejected Chris Brown’s apology.

She tells Extra, “Right now I can’t think of anything that makes me support anything that Chris Brown is saying at this time. And my heart just aches for Rihanna.”

Gabrielle Union adds, “I know them both. Unfortunately, no one knows all the facts yet…What I think is great about this unfortunate situation is it can get us talking about violence…Violence is never the answer. It’s good to get that dialogue started. I wish this wasn’t the catalyst for that…It’s never good to use violence as a means to an end.”

Akon encouraged Rihanna: “Keep doing what you’re doing baby. Keep things positive! She’s a strong woman. I think she’ll get through it….”

Dollhouse star Eliza Dushku gave her two cents, saying, “Any way, shape or form of domestic violence is inexcusable in my book.”
