BOBBI Kristina’s longtime boyfriend Nick Gordon has been placed on ‘suicide watch’ by close family and friends who fear he’ll take his own life now she’s passed away.
HollywoodLife.com exclusively reported Sunday night that Gordon (25) is inconsolable over the death of the 22-year-old daughter of Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown.
“He is out of control with regret and sadness. He keeps saying that if only [Bobbi Kristina] had heard his voice, things would have been different. She may have lived,” a source told the website.
Bobbi had been in a coma for almost seven months and had been moved to an Atlanta-area hospice in June after doctors said there was no hope of recovery.
The family issued a statement confirming her death which said, in part: “Bobbi Kristina Brown passed away Sunday, 26 July, surrounded by her family. She is finally at peace in the arms of God.”
Gordon, who is living in Florida and has claimed he and Bobbi Kristina were married, was recently served with a US$10 million lawsuit by the conservators of her estate.
The complaint alleges that Gordon physically abused Bobbi Kristina in the prelude to her discovery face down and unresponsive in her bath-tub at the Roswell, Georgia home they shared.
It’s also alleged he stole US$11 000 from her while she was in a medically induced coma. At the end of June, Fulton County prosecutors acknowledged they were looking at the case with ‘renewed interest’ leading Gordon to fear he may face criminal charges in the event of her death.
Following Bobbi Kristina’s admission to hospital, Gordon appeared on Dr Phil, where the TV host had an intervention with the young man, who had been abusing Xanax and alcohol.
His mother Michelle was also present at the intervention, saying her son was torn up because he could not see Bobbi in the hospital. Soon after he completed a stint in rehab. – Daily Mail Online
