Singer turned fashion and beauty mogul, Rihanna was snapped by paparazzi with significant bruises and swelling on her face over the weekend, reported TMZ, who ran pictures of the Unfaithful singer.

According to reports, she was spotted outside her favourite restaurant, Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica, but did not step out. Instead, she had her staff bring her food and drinks and was only papped once she took off her sunglasses, revealing a black eye.

Fans were immediately thrown into a frenzy as the pictures did rounds on social media, with many being reminded of the 2009 physical abuse incident with her former beau Chris Brown. That, however, is not the case this time around, thankfully.

RiRi’s reps have confirmed that the bruises are a result of an unfortunate e-scooter accident, in which the scooter flipped over, smacking her in the face and forehead, leaving her with a blackened eye and swelling. “Rihanna is completely fine now but flipped over on an electric scooter last week. Luckily there were no major injuries and she is healing quickly,” a spokesperson told People.

Here’s wishing her a speedy recovery!
