Lovers Rihanna and Chris Brown have been offered a free meal at KFC - after they inadvertently promoted the fast food company when they were caught kissing in one of its Florida chains.

The couple finally went public with their romance when the two young hitmakers were photographed kissing and cuddling in the Miami restaurant earlier this month.

And now the firm's chief marketing officer, James O'Reilly, has sent Rihanna a letter offering the couple a free meal, reports New York gossip column PageSix.

It reads: "Clearly, like our founder Colonel Sanders, you two know how to kick it up a few degrees. We could feel the heat - literally - in our restaurant that night. So much so that we'd like to invite you and Chris back to any KFC for a free meal."

And O'Reilly vows that if the couple repeat their show of affection he will make a donation to their favourite children's charity, Believe.
