In Whitney Houston’s final year, her daughter’s personal struggles made headlines. In February 2011, Bobbi Kristina Brown’s personal life ended up tabloid fodder when The National Enquirer (via Radar Online) published a photo of her allegedly snorting cocaine at a party. A source close to her told the outlet that the superstar’s daughter was headed down a difficult path. “Krissi is addicted to cocaine. I’ve tried to stop her, but all she said was, ‘I’m just like my mother!” the source claimed.
Bobbi Kristina addressed the leaked photos on Twitter. “But it’s really not what it looks like…People will do anything for money which is extremely sad, and I’m very hurt by this,” the singer’s daughter wrote (via CBS News). The National Enquirer then reported that Houston and ex-husband Bobby Brown agreed to send their daughter to rehab.
In 2015, Bobbi Kristina was found dead in her bathtub at the age of 22. According to Radar Online, before her death, Bobbi Kristina sent her friend some devastating texts about her late mother. “She was and is my everything ma’am,” she reportedly wrote. “And if you don’t think I don’t know what an ounce of HURT anguish and pain is, you are preaching to the wrong woman, because I’ve [been] in the public eye since I was born.”
