The 43-year old singer-songwriter insists she’s always had a sibling-like relationship with the daughter of the late Whitney Houston and is keeping the 21-year old woman in her thoughts and prayers after she was found unresponsive in a bath by her ‘husband,’ Nick Gordon over the weekend.
Speaking to The Insider, the rapper said: ‘Bobbi is like a little sister to me. I have been very close to her mother. One thing that her mother said to me before she passed away was to make sure Bobbi Kristina was straight, so my prayers for healing [are] that she comes out and be around people that love her.’
She explained: ‘People think it’s easy to just go on when you lose a loved one like that, but that’s somebody’s mother and backbone, so it’s got to be very difficult.’
The aspiring musician – who is currently in a medically induced coma at North Fulton Hospital in Georgia – had reportedly become ‘obsessed’ with the anniversary of her mother’s death before the incident on Saturday, January 31, 2015.
A family source said previously: ‘She was seemingly obsessed by it – strangely more so than last year or the year before.
‘She talked more about that anniversary, than her recent first wedding anniversary.’
