(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Rihanna has "no qualms" about her ex-boyfriend Chris Brown attending next year's Grammy Awards.

The night before the 2009 Grammy Award ceremony, Chris was arrested and charged with felony battery assault on Rihanna.

Soon after Chris was convicted of the felony in June 2009, a restraining order was enacted by a Los Angeles Superior Court judge that barred him and Rihanna from getting within 30ft of each other at public events.

The restraining order has since been modified at Rihanna's request, allowing the pair to attend mutual professional events such as awards ceremonies.

Rihanna is reportedly fine with the prospect of seeing Chris at the Grammys in February if she decides to attend.

"Rihanna is also nominated for several Grammys, and she performed at the Grammy nomination concert recently, and she could be going to the awards ceremony as well," a source told RadarOnline.com. "Rihanna thinks that Chris should attend the Grammys if he wants to, she has absolutely no qualms with him being there. Don't expect them to hang out, but she has moved on from that horrible night, and doesn't want it to define either one of them as people."

For his 2011 record F.A.M.E., Chris holds nominations in the Best R&B Album, Best Rap Performance and Best Rap Song categories.

The singer has worked hard for the past few years and is thrilled by the acknowledgement.

"Chris has grown tremendously as a person, and an artist from that time in his life," the source continued. "Chris has complied with all terms of his [five-year] probation and has completed most of his court ordered community service. He has been a model probationer, but more importantly, Chris accepted responsibility for what he did. Chris took that experience and vowed to learn from it and become a better person, and he was thrilled and truly humbled that he was nominated for three Grammys."

Rihanna's work on her record Loud has earned the singer Grammy nominations in the Album of the Year, Best Pop Vocal Album and Best Rap/Sung Collaboration categories.

The 54th Grammy Awards will be held at the Staples Centre in Los Angeles on February 12 2012. (C) Cover Media
