Cissy Houston died while being ‘eaten by hatred’ towards Bobby Brown

Cissy has never suppressed her feelings toward Brown — and she made it clear that she blamed him for her daughter’s death at Whitney’s memorial service in 2012.

Sources told Brown before the service: “I hate you. You killed my daughter by putting her on drugs… The day she married you was the worst day of my life.”

Brown called Cissy to ask if he could attend the private viewing of Whitney’s body in an open casket at Whigham Funeral Home in Newark, New Jersey.

A source recalls, “Cissy reluctantly agreed to let Bobby attend the funeral, but she flatly refused his request to come to the private viewing.

“She told Bobby, ‘It’s just for family. Whitney wouldn’t have wanted you there. None of us want you there.”

“Then she added, ‘And if you come to church, you should know that you are not welcome.'”

Cissy is said to still be furious about the last phone call she had with her daughter, just hours before Whitney died on February 11, 2012 at the Beverly Hilton hotel.

Whitney blasted Brown for being a poor father to their then 18-year-old daughter, Bobbi Kristina.

An insider said: “Cissy told Bobby, ‘Whitney went to her grave hating you! You promised to see your daughter in Los Angeles, but after two days of waiting you never showed up.'”

“Cissy said, ‘You have brought nothing but misery and pain into my daughter’s life.

“If it weren’t for you, she would still be alive today. You pretty much killed Whitney… Marrying you was the biggest mistake of her life.”

Despite his mother-in-law’s warning, Brown showed up at Whitney’s funeral with nine people, including his three children from previous relationships, his finacée and their two-year-old son.

After guards moved his group twice, Brown caused a commotion before the Rev. Jesse Jackson and the Rev. Al Sharpton calmed him down.

A source said: “Bobby was furious.

“He walked over to Whitney’s casket and kissed it dismissively. He tried to see his daughter, but guards chased him away.”

The day after the service, Cissy, Bobbi Kristina and other family members watched as Whitney was buried next to her father, John Houston, in a private ceremony at Fairview Cemetery in Westfield, New Jersey.

An insider described the emotional moment: “Before Whitney was lowered into the ground, Cissy kissed the casket one last time.

“She later told a friend, ‘I will think about my daughter every day that remains of my life. I can’t wait to be reunited with her in heaven.'”
