Rihanna and Chris Brown are recording a duet, femalefirst.co.uk reports.

The couple — who have reconciled after Brown allegedly assaulted Rihanna in his rented Lamborghini car last month — are said to be working on a song for Brown’s new album, which is due out later this year.

A source said: “They’ve been working on it together.”

The pair is believed to be recording with producer Polow Da Don — who wrote the Pussycat Dolls hit Buttons — in a Santa Monica studio. Neither Brown nor Rihanna’s representatives have commented on the claims.

Last week, Chris was charged with two felonies ‘ assault and making criminal threats — in relation to the alleged attack on Rihanna. He is yet to enter a plea, but if convicted he faces a maximum of four years eight months in prison.

It has been claimed the 19-year-old singer may want to organize a plea deal in an effort to get the charges scaled down to a misdemeanour, which would mean he would not face jail.
