Bobbi Kristina’s Family Wants Her Out Of the Public Eye

Whitney’s daughter spoke with Oprah Winfrey after the sudden death, but now her family thinks she needs time away from the spotlight in order to process the loss.

Bobbi Kristina Brown was devastated after her mother Whitney Houston‘s February 11 death, and now her family wants her out of the spotlight.

Whitney’s family thinks that Bobbi, 19, needs to take time to herself after her interview with Oprah Winfrey airs, PEOPLE reports.

“There is still no resolution and there has been nothing concrete on the cause of [Whitney's] death, and they were hoping for that,” a source close to the family says. “There were members of the family who weren’t keen on [the interview] going down at this time. There are people who just want her to stay out of the limelight for a while. This is a little girl who just needs some time. She’s so very young and impressionable. She has to start finding herself as a woman on her own as opposed to defining herself as Whitney’s daughter and Whitney’s support. It’s kind of interesting to see what’s going to happen to her from here on in.”

The show will air March 11 on Oprah’s Next Chapter on her network, OWN. Will YOU watch Bobbi Kristina’s first interview, HollywoodLifers?

I believe this interview came too soon. This interview was taped completely too soon after Whitney Houston’s death. Ratings will increase and so wil the funds in someone’s bank account and I personally believe this is what the interview is all about. Many of us are still processing our loss of a Great Singer, An Actress, A Hero, A Super Star, gone too soon and the truth is that many people are probrably trying to get an interview out of the Houston family, but Oprah Winfrey, whom is a cose friend of the famiy anded it first, and for certain her ratings will increase as a result, but I think this coud have and shoud have waited. I’d much rather see Cissy Houston tak about the loss of her daughter on any day, as opposed to (phony) Patricia Houston, but that is just my personal opinion.

Yes I will watch Bobbi Kristina’s interview on the OWN channel. I feel very sorry for her. Bobbi Kristina may God bless you in whatever you do.

She doesn’t seem to me to be a serious girl. She hasn’t found her own self until she does dat can she speak meaningfully. I will only hear wht people say abt d interview

How can you say that about Krissy? Do you know her, or is it that you’re going by what you read. How would you feel if people judged you according to what they hear? Treat people like you want to be treated! Remember every eye shall see Him! Judge Not!

She’s a part of Whitney, and she in some way will help ease our pain on the loss of her mom, and now our Angel.

Oprah should not do this she is an exploiter too that child needs o be left alone period!

I agree 100% with you, the devils advocate should leave this alone for the pain is still so unreal…but it will definitely help us the fans get Krissy side of the story from all of this bashing that the media keeps trying to slip in at times.
