Bobby’s relationship with LaPrincia Brown’s mother was cut short a few months after he met Whitney Houston at the 1989 Soul Train Awards. Rumor has it that he was still involved with Kim Ward while he dated Whitney Houston, but that is yet to be confirmed.

These days Bobby Brown seems to enjoy a great relationship with his daughter LaPrincia. Her mother has mentioned in several interviews that Bobby Brown cares deeply about his children, so it’s not surprising that he keeps a good relationship with them.

Both Bobbi Kristina and Bobby had a mixture of drugs and alcohol in their system, and were gone way too soon.
