Dailymail reports as exclusive news Bobby brown's and late Whitney Houston's daughter Bobbi Kristina Brown's life-support has been turned off.
The 21-year-old daughter of Whitney Houston was found face down in a bath-tub at the Roswell, Georgia townhouse she shared with partner Nick Gordon on Saturday.
Her father Bobby Brown, whose birthday is today, is at Emory University Hospital in Atlanta hospital with friends and relatives.
'The plug on Bobbi Kristina has been pulled,' a police source with knowledge of her medical condition told DailyMail.com.
Fears: Bobby Brown,pictured second right, stands with other visitors as his daughter remains in a coma |
She was moved to the Atlanta hospital from North Fulton Hospital on Monday. She had been placed in a medically-induced coma and was reported to be breathing with the help of a ventilator.
During tests for brain activity, she briefly opened her eyes and doctors found 'minimal' improvement in her brain function.
Houston died in a bathtub from an 'accidental' drug overdose almost exactly three years ago, in tragically similar circumstances.
Authorities found a dozen prescription drug bottles in her Beverly Hills Hotel suite and listed heart disease and cocaine use as contributors, but concluded that she accidentally drowned.
A doctor told the family that nothing more could be done for her, People magazine reported.
'Everyone is coming to the hospital to say goodbye,' a family member told the magazine.
'Bobby has been crying nonstop since yesterday,' the source added. 'We are grieving.'
The devastating news comes as a friend of Bobbi Kristina's claimed he was the one who called 911 after finding her in the bathtub on Saturday - not her 'husband' Nick Gordon.
Max Lomas, who has previously been arrested on drug distribution charges, claims Gordon was 'elsewhere in the residence' and it was he who removed her from the tub.
Lomas' lawyer told Access Hollywood on Wednesday that it was his client 'who began the process of hopefully helping her recover.'
'Max was actually the one that found her and he's the one that removed her from bathtub and called 9-1-1, and Max is the one who began the process of hopefully helping her recover,' said Phillip Holloway.
According to Holloway, the experience was traumatic for his client.
'He was terrorized. It was absolute pure panic, and he was frightened for his friend, his close friend who was not breathing and did not appear to show any signs of life. He's petrified,' Holloway said. 'And he wanted to get her the help that she so desperately needed at the time.'
According to Holloway, Gordon arrived in the bathroom he started CPR on Bobbi Kristina as Lomas did not know how to conduct life-saving measures.
'Max assisted in the best of his ability - he's not trained in CPR – but he's the one who removed her from the bathtub and called 9-1-1,' Holloway said.
While the Roswell Police Department is no longer commenting on the incident, Holloway said Lomas is considered a witness, not a suspect, and is cooperating with authorities regarding the case.
'He's absolutely not in hiding, no,' Holloway told Access. 'In fact, we're doing all we can to cooperate to find out exactly what happened to Bobbi Kristina, and under what circumstances. That's everybody's goal, including Max.'
Lomas was arrested on January 15 and charged with weapons offenses, marijuana possession and possession of an anxiety drug. Holloway says Lomas pleaded not guilty and the arrest is unrelated to the discovery of Brown in the tub.
It has also emerged that police are looking into the possibility that eye-witnesses may have fled the scene after Bobbi Kristina was found.
Roswell Police Detectives are investigating whether people fled before officers arrived and have been asking local businesses if they saw anything suspicious that morning, E! News reported.
Nearby bank employees told detectives they saw nothing but police have requested surveillance footage, sources told the website
Questions still remain over what part drugs - if any - played in Saturday's incident; police reportedly found narcotics in the home during a second search last weekend.
Bobby Brown has had his own share of drug troubles, including how he admitted to using 'an awful lot' of cocaine after marrying Whitney Houston in 1992.
In 2000, he also spent 26 days in a Florida jail for violating probation on a 1996 drunken-driving charge by not submitting to a drug test.
Other, more recent troubles have included a 2012 arrest for DUI and a stint in rehab in August of that year for alcohol addiction - before being arrested for another DUI just three months later.
In 2013, he served just nine hours behind bars after pleading no contest to suspicion of driving under the influence of alcohol.
On Tuesday, he spoke out through his lawyer to correct reports that his daughter had married Gordon.
Following Houston's death three years ago, Bobbi entered into a relationship with Gordon - a sort-of step-brother after her mother welcomed him into their home when he was 12.
Then last January the couple announced that they had got married, and Bobbi Kristina posted photos of their 'wedding rings' on social media.
But on Tuesday a lawyer representing Bobbi's father released the following statement: 'We are currently investigating the events that led to the hospitalization of Bobbi Kristina.'
'To correct earlier reports, Bobbi Kristina is not and has never been married to Nick Gordon,' added Christopher Brown of Brown & Rosen LLC.
Relations between Gordon and other family members have been rocky and he remains subject to a protective order barring him from being within 200 feet of Bobbi Kristina's aunt, Patricia Houston.
Bobby has five children; LaPrincia, 24, is his daughter with Kim Ward, from who he split in 1991. Bobbi Kristina is his only child with Whitney Houston, whom he divorced in 2007.
I AM IN SHOCK!!!
why the same way her mum died?the same circumstances?did she plan it with anyones help or is this a coincidence?did someone do this?I need closure on this.i am so sad.I didnt know her personally but Whitney and bobby brown lived with us all in our memories.
I dont know if pulling the plug means she has died but GOD IS STILL IN CHARGE OF MIRACLES,let his will be done.

ReplyDeleteOf course, pulling the plug means they've let her go; since she was reportedly being kept alive by the life support machine.

ReplyDeleteStella it's not true. She has not been taken off life support. The official lawyer of the family and Bobby Brown himself have released statements contrary to that. Unfortunately though, it doesn't mean she is getting better.
ReplyDeleteStella Sugar pls go to Vigilant Citizen and find out d truth wats goin on abt dis girl u wil be amazed! illuminati everywhere!!!!!!

ReplyDeleteI feel especially sorry for the grandma (whitney's mum); these are the people that should bury her, not the other way round. So sad
DeleteSo sad,Dear GOD give Bobbi a second chance.
ReplyDeleteBobby browns statement was released four days ago,i checked and this dailymail report is today.
ReplyDeleteI am doing follow up on this,i will post any new developement.if you see before me,please inbox me.
thank you.
And this is how drugs ruined this family that is if she wasn't murdered or committed suicide.This news is very disturbing and distressing, gosh!
DeleteYou are Correct.
DeleteYou guys can visit daily mail to confirm.Stella stated her source clearly.
It's the headline news there.
Daily mail is not TMZ. If Daily mail says she's been taken off life support, then she's been taken off.
May her soul rest in peace.
So sad.
@Goldscent Diamond, it's obvious that u have mental issues!
DeleteAnon it's obvious you are sick too! Haba, Why/ how's do you people derive joy in insulting people Abeg? Na Wa o

ReplyDeleteOh nooooo!!!
ReplyDeleteDon't know d one to believe, I read she is responding to treatment, now she is died, which way forward.
ReplyDeleteOMG!!!
ReplyDeleteMy heart is beating so fast right now.
ReplyDeleteThis is truly a sad story., Stells ..... I am still in denial. i was Whitney Houston fan(loved her and her music). I am just praying for a positive news out if this.....
ReplyDeleteSo the young 'brother' cum husband becomes mega rich...go figure!!!
ReplyDeleteuntil it's ona trustworthy station or Bobby Brown comes forward and says life support was pulled I'm not going to believe it. For her to blinker her eyes on life support means there still is function of the brain
ReplyDeleteMy heart skipped a beat when I read the title.This is so sad.Cried when the mum died.It is well.
ReplyDeleteStellz, shes still on life support and in bad shape. BB's lawyer released a statement few hours ago.
ReplyDeleteThis is so sad.
ReplyDeleteI feel Bobby's pains. Losing one's love is the most terrible thing that can happen to anyone. I Lost my dad 5days ago so I know how it feels... I pray for God's miracle on her cos only him has the power to heal.
ReplyDeleteOlamide....be strong okay.
DeleteGod's got your back.
Take heart my dear
* warm hugs*
Mma cee, thank you so much.*kisses*
DeleteOlamide,sorry about ur dad...accept my sympathy
DeleteSorry dear, may the Lord comfort you and your family. RIP to your dad.
DeleteThis is really pathetic.
ReplyDeleteReport says they are yet to take her off life support.I pray she survives this....
ReplyDeleteI feel so sorry for bobbi brown
ReplyDeleteHa! Not again
ReplyDeleteI am in shock.its painful.I feel so sad.I can't help but secretly blame Bobby for the death of mum n daughter. Imagine how Whitney's life spiraled after meeting him. Women be prayerful and listen to the voice of reason.
ReplyDeleteI suspect bobby n gordon
ReplyDeleteSum1 wnts dis girl dead for her money

Chai, my people make we pray..ooo for our children whether born or unborn. The devil is a liar!!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is an eye opener. In this life we learn from experience. Whether personal experience or that of others. Satan just plan to cut this girl/child/sister at her prime. Same scenario, same circumstance, but too early than the age when Satan waisted the mom away. Chai, día ris God...ooo. We are serving a living God. I am angry and angry in my spirit. Chai !!!!
The thing wey ee afflict my parents, my ancestors will not afflict me or my children or my children's children in Jesus ' name.
You that family demon that want to repeat affliction from generation to generation; Hmmmm, I bind u with hot chains & fetters of God & cast you into the bottomless pit of hell in Jesus' mighty name, amen.
Oh God arise and have mercy on Bobbi Christina. (tears tears). In Jesus' name, amen.
Sad One
ReplyDeleteI pray this is just a rumor and that boobi will still make it
ReplyDeleteMehn this news is very hard to come to terms with...may God please save her...
ReplyDeleteI've been to VC (vigilancitizens.com) and what I read there wasn't too far-fetched. Like I had been saying, this incident isn't ordinary; there's a higher authority responsible for this. Nick Gordon was her handler. So SAD! Mother and daughter found in same unconscious state. Coincidence indeed!
ReplyDeleteBobby said he'll wait till after the weekend na.....He has nothing to lose sha. pulling the plug is a great task cuz you still wish they gomna wake up. something is amiss and i hope God exposes what we dont know..sad
