Richard Abidin Breen (born 29 June 1979), better known as Abz Love, is an English singer, rapper and songwriter.
Love was a member of the boy band Five and is current member of supergroup Boyz on Block.
In 1997, Love auditioned for Five, a new boy band-style group with "attitude and edge" and was eventually selected to be part of the band along with Ritchie Neville, Scott Robinson, Sean Conlon and Jason "J" Brown.
Five subsequently were signed by Simon Cowell and BMG/RCA for a six-album deal.
Five went on to enjoy massive success worldwide, selling over 20 million records in their four years.
The group sold around 20 million copies worldwide.
Five went on to have international success winning a Brit Award for Best Pop Act 2000, an MTV award and ASCAP awards for songwriting.
Love and fellow Five members Jason "J" Brown and Sean Conlon were involved in writing many of the band's hits such as "Everybody Get Up", "Keep On Movin'" and "If Ya Gettin' Down".
The band split up on 27 September 2001.
In 2003, he released his debut solo album Abstract Theory, which earned him a further three top-ten hits.
Love was fired from Sony in December 2003, changed his name to Abz Love and took a long hiatus from his music career.
In 2006 Five attempted a comeback without Conlon, but failed to sign with a new label and the band disbanded again.
After Five split, Love was signed to Sony BMG by Simon Cowell as a solo artist and became the only band member to release a solo album.
Abstract Theory had three top 10 hits on the UK Singles Chart with "What You Got" (No. 4), "Stop Sign" (No. 10), and "Miss Perfect" (No. 5).
Abstract Theory reached No. 29 on the UK Albums Chart.
From 2009 to 2017, Love dated singer Vicky Fallon.
In 2013 he appeared on All Star Mr & Mrs and became the runner-up for Channel 5's Celebrity Big Brother 12.
In January 2013, Five returned to star the ITV2's reality show The Big Reunion.
Brown didn't want to rejoin the group and Five announced that they were considering a new fifth member for the comeback, but withdrew to continue with the original four-member lineup.
The band decided to continue as a four-piece performing live touring Europe.
Also in 2013, Love was runner-up of Celebrity Big Brother 12.

In August 2014 Love left Five, citing creative differences – years later he said he was unhappy just singing the hit songs and not recording new material.
