Popular American musician Chris Brown has reunited with his ex-girlfriend, Karrueche Tran, nearly eight years after a restraining order legally separated them. The surprising reunion took place on Saturday at the 2025 Coachella Festival in California.
Karrueche Tran, an American actress and socialite, was granted a restraining order against Brown in May 2017 after alleging that he had physically abused her. During her testimony, she expressed fear for her safety and requested permanent protection—an appeal the judge ultimately approved. This came after Brown’s previous conviction for assaulting his then-girlfriend, singer Rihanna.
Despite their turbulent past and the legal issues that followed their split, a trending photo and video circulating on social media captured the former couple in a lighthearted moment. The two were seen chatting, with Tran laughing at something Brown said—hinting at a possible thaw in their strained relationship.
Following the unexpected development, it appears the duo may have finally put their past legal battles behind them.
