Whitney Houston sadly died on 11th February this year, leaving behind 19 year old daughter Bobbi. She drowned in the bath after a reported heavy cocaine binge in a Beverley Hills hotel room.
Bobbi's devastated family are allegedly desperate for the youngster to avoid a similar fate, and want to hold back the multi-million dollar fortune that is rightfully hers.
Sources close to Cissy reportedly told TMZ that Whitney's mother feels Bobbi is currently surrounded by numerous negative influences, including her boyfriend Nick Gordon and father Bobby Brown. The grandma fears that they will drain Bobbi's fortune given half the chance.
TMZ report that Whitney's mother also believes the19-year-old is under a lot of pressure and is easily influnced at the moment. If she's given millions of dollars to play with, Bobbi could end up going off the rails, eventually dying just like Whitney. Cissy is doing her best to ensure that doesn't happen, hoping to give Bobbi the money when she is fully mature.
The teenager will inherit roughly $20 million dollars, but it's unclear when.
According to a petition filed in Georgia’s Fulton County Superior Court Monday, the trustees of her late mother’s estate are trying to provide “security and protection” for her. The trustees of Whitney's will want to protect Brown, who is a “highly visible target,” from those “who would exert undue influence over her inheritance and/or seek to benefit from respondent’s resources and celebrity.”
