Bobbi Kristina Brown Is Not Actually Married to Nick Gordon, Lawyer Says
The lawyer for Brown's father wanted to "correct" some things.
-- Despite public claims from Bobbi Kristina Brown, including a 2013 social media posting that she had married Nick Gordon, her father’s lawyer says the two have never married.
"We are currently investigating the events that led to the hospitalization of Bobbi Kristina," Christopher Brown of Brown & Rosen LLC, legal counsel for her father, Bobby Brown, told ABC News. "To correct earlier reports, Bobbi Kristina is not and has never been married to Nick Gordon.”
Brown, 21, the daughter of singers Bobby Brown and Whitney Houston, is “fighting for her life" after being discovered Saturday by Gordon and a friend face down in her tub in her Roswell, Georgia, home.
“We continue to request privacy in this matter,” according to a new statement from Bobby Brown. “Please allow for our family to deal with this matter and give Bobbi Kristina the love and support she needs at this time.”
After being found over the weekend, Brown was rushed to North Fulton Hospital in Roswell, where she had been treated, but has since been moved. It's unclear when or where she was moved to.
As for Gordon, the aspiring singer and actress has always been fiercely defensive of her relationship with the man Houston took into her home some years ago.
"I'm tired of hearing people say, 'Eww you're engaged to your brother or if Whitney was still alive would we be together or would she approve of this.' Let me clear up something. We aren't even real brother and sister, nor is he my adoptive brother," Brown wrote on Facebook before she claimed to tie the knot in 2013.
When Brown announced that she wed Gordon, she tweeted a picture of her hand on top of his, both sporting rings on that special finger.
"@nickdgordon! #HappilyMarried• SO#Inlove• if you didn't get it the first time that is," she captioned the pic. It also had a thumbs up sticker in the top left of the pic that read "YERP," slang for yes.
