It’s been nearly six months since Bobbi Kristina Brown was found unresponsive, lying face down in her bathtub, and since then she has yet to regain consciousness and there’s little hope that she ever will. While her family mourns, questions have spread about Bobbi’s drug use and now a new book claims that the she was abusing drugs when she was just a teenager.
According to the U.K.’s The Daily Mail, Ian Halperin’s new book, Whitney & Bobbi Kristina: The Deadly Price of Fame, alleges that Bobbi was 12 when she first accompanied her mother, Whitney Houston, to drug rehab. He claims that just a short time later, Bobbi was abusing drugs too and was going to rehab as well, a claim that has previously been made by the mother of Bobbi’s longtime boyfriend, Nick Gordon.
Halperin’s accusations become even darker when he alleges that a family relative told him that before Bobbi was 15, she had attacked her mother with a knife before slashing her own wrists.
A friend of the family alleged to Halperin that, after Houston’s death, Bobbi’s wild behavior spiraled out of control and she began hanging with the wrong crowd.
“The crowd she hung out with was out of control,’ a friend of Bobbi Kristina’s told Halperin. ‘The past couple of years she hung with a bunch of crazies, they were wild and reckless.”
Sadly, Bobbi’s life nearly came to an end when doctors put her in a medically-induced coma after she nearly drowned after collapsing in her bathtub. Although Bobbi has been brought out of her coma, her grandmother, Cissy Houston, says doctors confirmed Bobbi has suffered permanent brain damage after being submerged under water for several minutes.
But the book’s accusations don’t end there. Read what Halperin had to say about Houston, as well as his theory about why Bobbi nearly drowned.
