Bobby Brown Using Whitney Houston’s Music To Comfort Bobbi Kristina

As Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown’s daughter, Bobbi Kristina, fights for her life, Bobby is making sure his daughter’s late mother is there in spirit.

According to a member of Bobby’s family, they have been using song to comfort Bobbi Kristina, including one of Whitney’s most powerful ballads.

“We’ll sing ‘Jesus Loves Me,’ ‘Amazing Grace,’ but also some of Whitney’s songs,” a Brown relative told People. “We’ve been singing ‘Greatest Love of All.’ Bobby has sung that to her too.”

A rep for the Houston family previously said, “Bobbi Kristina is fighting for her life,” after the 21-year-old was found unresponsive in a bathtub at her home on Saturday and her father is not giving up hope.

“Bobby has told us, ‘If American thinks she is dead, they will stop praying,'” the family member claimed to the mag. “And at this point, we want people to pray for a miracle.”

A mag source also opened up about Bobbi Kristina and Bobby’s often rocky relationship.

“They get into big fights and then they don’t talk for a while. Sometimes the fights last for a day, sometimes longer. They’re both pretty stubborn,” the source claimed.

Another Brown relative claimed, “They’ll go for months and months without saying a word to each other. They’re very alike, which I think is the issue. They will be talking and loving to each other, and then a little thing will turn into something big and they won’t talk for a long time. They know how to push each other’s buttons.”

Adding, “Deep down, they love each other very much. It would kill Bobby to lose her. I mean literally kill him.”

As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com on Tuesday, Bobby’s lawyer issued a statement over Bobbi Kristina’s marital status, noting an investigation is underway, and clarifying that Bobbi Kristina is not married to Nick Gordon.

“We are currently investigating the events that led to the hospitalization of Bobbi Kristina,” Christopher Brown of Brown & Rosen LLC, legal counsel for Bobby Brown, said in a statement on Tuesday evening. “To correct earlier reports, Bobbi Kristina is not and has never been married to Nick Gordon.”

Bobbi Kristina’s father also released a new statement, again reiterating the family’s request for privacy.
