Bobbi Kristina Brown Freaks Out Family After Whitney Houston's Funeral

Bobbi Kristina Brown, the 18-year old daughter of Bobby Brown is accused of getting high after her mother Whitney Houston’s funeral on Saturday. As the headlines read, did Bobbi Kristina get high after her mother’s funeral? The family’s spokesperson reportedly told the Daily Beast of an incident that left Bobbi’s grandmother Cissy Houston in a panic. Just after the funeral service in Newark, New Jersey, the family went to a local eatery however Kristina who became distraught after learning her father Bobby left the funeral, was nowhere to be found.

“Everyone was freaking out and calling Bobbi Kristina’s cell. It was so much commotion and activity after the funeral that Bobbi Kristina just slipped away. Ms. Cissy was beside herself.”

“There was some confusion about Bobbi Kristina’s whereabouts last night for a short time, but she’s OK,” said the spokesperson who explicitly stated there was no drugs involved.

“She needed some time alone. She is going through a very hard time as you can expect.”

Another “family friend” alleges that Bobbi Kristina has a drug that her family is trying to conceal,

“Cissy and others won’t admit out loud that Bobbi Kristina has a drug problem. But they know it and have been trying to keep her straight even before Whitney passed. But losing your mother and the life you’re accustomed to all in one day is enough to send anybody off the deep end.”

Before the funeral, reports surfaced that the family wanted Bobbi Kristina in a rehab facility in California following her mother’s funeral. It’s unclear if Whitney’s daughter is truly going down this devastating path but we hope the family will help her in whatever way she needs…now!

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
