Bobbi Kristina Brown buried next to her mother
The family of Bobbi Kristina Brown laid her to rest next to her late mother Whitney Houston in New Jersey.
TMZ reported that an invitation to the funeral “suggests, in lieu of flowers, donations should be sent to The Marion P. Foundation, a charity run by Bobbi Kristina’s aunt Pat Houston, benefiting troubled teens”.
A gold hearse carrying the casket left Whigham Funeral Home in Newark and arrived at the Fairview Cemetery in Westfield, N.J., on Monday around midday.
Leolah Brown, the sister of Bobbi Kristina’s dad, Bobby Brown, recently blamed Pat Houston for taking a deathbed photo of Bobbi Kristina in hospice care.
Brown, the daughter of Houston and R&B singer Bobby Brown, died after suffering irreversible brain damage in a still unexplained January incident at her Roswell, Georgia, home.
This isn’t the first time Bobbi Kristina’s family has come under fire for selling a picture.
A police report described the death as a drowning, but authorities are still investigating what happened.
The memorial service “was wonderful until Pat started speaking”, Leolah Brown told media outside St. James United Methodist Church, noting that she’d yelled out to Pat as she was leaving that Whitney would haunt her sister-in-law from the grave.
“She is finally at peace in the arms of God”.
Houston and Brown have been married 15 years earlier than their relationship led to 2007. She appeared with them in 2005 on the Bravo actuality present “Being Bobby Brown” and attended award exhibits together with her mom and father.
Was a photo of Bobbi Kristina Brown’s body in the casket sold to a tabloid?
Someone snapped a similarly tasteless picture at Whitney Houston’s funeral in 2012, leading to accusations from both families.
The Houston side of the family has had little comment, as has Atlanta entertainment mogul and close family friend Tyler Perry, who reportedly has served as peacemaker.
Leolah Brown has said she believes Gordon was involved in the death of her niece.
