THE SAD LIFE STORY OF BOBBI KRISTINA BROWN

At the time of writing, we know that Bobbi Kristina Brown (21), the only daughter of the late Whitney Houston, is being kept in a coma after being found face down in her bathtub on Saturday. Officially, nothing is known about her fate yet, but according to unofficial sources, she is said to be showing ‘alarmingly little brain activity’. It is even claimed that Bobbi Kristina, exactly three years after losing her mother, may already be brain dead. A sadly incredible story.

Parents addicted
Seemingly, she came into the world in a privileged environment. Her parents were successful pop stars with millions in the bank, but in reality, life turned out to be anything but rosy for Bobbi Kristina. Mother Whitney and father Bobbi were not only world-famous but also addicted to everything you could smoke, drink, snort, and inject, which naturally led to an unstable childhood full of unhealthy situations in the spotlight.

Also addicted
The apple didn't fall far from the tree, as Bobbi also found alcohol and drugs at a young age. In 2011, she appeared on the cover of The National Enquirer with a photo showing her snorting a line of coke. After her parents' divorce, Bobbi stayed with her mother. The two were inseparable until the night before the Grammys in 2012. Whitney was found dead in the bathtub of her hotel room at The Beverly Hills Hilton, after which Bobbi Kristina completely collapsed and had to be hospitalized.

Married to her stepbrother
Bobbi Kristina found comfort in the arms of her stepbrother Nick Gordon. Despite strong protests from the family – Bobbi and Nick had lived as brother and sister in a house since they were 9 and 12 years old – they married and moved in together in Atlanta.

The young couple was briefly followed in their own reality show: The Houstons: On Our Own. Here, Bobbi Kristina was often seen swaying with a glass in her hand. Grandmother Cissy expressed serious concerns for her grandchild at the time. “I try to make sure she doesn’t go down the same path as her mother.”

In the time that followed, Bobbi and Nick were evicted from their home due to persistent noise complaints, and Bobbi Kristina frequently made the news due to irrational behavior. For example, when she started a Twitter war against Angela Basset, who had not considered her to play Whitney Houston in the film about her life. “I have multiple reasons for not asking her, but one of them is the fact that Bobbi Kristina is not an actress.”

And on Twitter, she was also quite active in the days leading up to her fatal bath session with vague tweets about garlic fries, fishbone braids, and the ominous ‘by myself’. According to American media, her father and family are by her side and can do little more than pray and hope for a miracle.
