Whitney Houston's Mum Blasts Bobby Brown Over Drug Comments In Tell-all interview

Whitney’s Houston’s mother Cissy Houston has slammed the singer’s ex-husband Bobby Brown over his recent ‘drug’ comments about her daughter.
In a tell-all interview with ABC’s 20/20, Bobby who was married to Whitney for 15 years, claimed the first time he saw her snorting cocaine was on their wedding day when he broke the tradition to see her before they exchanged vows.

He went on to say that Whitney offered him some drugs before they exchanged vows at their wedding ceremony.

The R&B singer also claimed he and Whitney would spend hours a day locked in a room in their mansion doing drugs while a nanny cared for their Bobbi Kristina. Hitting back, Cissy says she’s disappointed with her former son-in-law’s “disturbing” drug allegations.

Speaking to People magazine, she said:

“Last night I saw Bobby Brown’s interview with Robin Roberts. It was disturbing. Although the interview was supposed to promote HIS autobiography, he never spoke about his parents and siblings and any issues they might have or have had that impacted and may continue to impact on ‘Every Little Step’ he takes. Instead he chose to concentrate his comments primarily on Whitney. I can’t help but wonder why,” says Houston. Whether I would have chosen Bobby for my daughter’s husband is not important because the choice was not mine to make.
She loved him and I believe him when he says he loved her. I only wish he had loved and respected her enough to make some of the negative statements about her and Krissi while Whitney was alive and able to respond from her perspective,” she continues.

“On the OPRAH show when Whitney said Bobby had spit in her face and Krissi had seen it, Krissi was in the audience and available to challenge anything her mother said. Bobby was alive and free to dispute what she said. He chose not to; instead he waited to speak about her when she could no longer speak for herself.”

“There is no value in my challenging all of his statements – point for point – such as his assertion that he ‘had money’ when he married Whitney or that anyone in my family said he started Nippy on drugs. No one blames Bobby for that. However, I must say that his story of seeing her do drugs for the first time on their wedding day is untrue (Donna Houston, Robyn Crawford and I were with Nippy the whole time before the ceremony), and more importantly, it forever casts a shadow over one of the most important days of her life,” says Houston.

“I am deeply disappointed that this interview to promote the story of Bobby’s life seemed to be more of an exposé on Whitney’s life. My problem with Bobby has always been that he became her husband but not her helpmate or protector.”

“My prayer for Nippy and Krissi is that they will soon rest in peace. My prayer for me is that someday, somewhere beyond the horizon where we cannot see, I will be with them again . . . And Joy will come in the morning,” she concludes.
