An emotional Brown admitted that he remains heartbroken that Houston could not kick cocaine and crack after he got sober.
‘I think she would still be here if we hadn’t divorced,’ he said.
‘I wasn’t there. I beat myself about it because I wasn’t there. I wish I could have been there for her.’
In the vulnerable and eye-opening interview with the R&B icon Brown claims that he speaks to his ex-wife and their deceased daughter Bobby Kristina from beyond the grave.
Bobby, 53, claims that the ‘frightened’ pair ‘are looking down, watching me.’

‘We had made our beds and had to lie in them. We always felt that our love was strong enough to overcome any obstacle put in front of us.
‘We would still be together if it wasn’t for drugs. Drugs got the best of us.’
Bobby says a jail stint for probation violations on a DUI in 2003 helped him get clean – but with Whitney still using it began the demise of their marriage.
‘Before I went to jail, I had started using heroin, along with crack and weed. I was only sniffing, not shooting it. I was able to kick heroin and crack in jail. I did it on my own.’
Whitney picked him up with drugs and booze in the car.
‘I knew I had moved into a different realm. Whitney was still using hard drugs. That is when the problems started with me and her I wanted her to become sober like I was but it was really hard for both of us to stay together and be together.’
They filed for divorce in October 2006, finalized in 2007.
Five years after the divorce Houston, who ruled as pop music’s queen until her majestic voice and regal image were ravaged by drug use, died in February 2012.
Houston accidentally drowned in a bathtub at the Beverly Hilton hotel with cocaine and heart disease recorded as contributing factors.
