Bobbi Kristina Brown’s ex Nick Gordon arrested for battery

Bobbi Kristina Brown’s former partner Nick Gordon was arrested on Saturday in Florida, US, on domestic violence charges against his current girlfriend.

Gordon’s girlfriend reported to the Sanford Police station on Saturday that she was hit by her live-in boyfriend, police said in a statement.

Officers found Gordon at a local club house near the couple’s home and arrested him.

Last year, Gordon was ordered to pay $36 million to the estate of his late girlfriend, Bobbi Kristina Brown, the only child of the late Whitney Houston and singer Bobby Brown.

He was found legally responsible for Brown’s death after she was found unresponsive in the bathtub of an Atlanta home the couple shared on January 31, 2015.

She remained in a coma until she died six months later.

An autopsy declared that drug intoxication and immersion in water were the cause of the pneumonia and brain damage that ultimately led to her death.

Gordon failed to appear for two hearings in the civil case against him regarding Brown’s death, and her family won by default.

The ruling forces Gordon to pay any of his future earnings to the estate of Brown.

Bobbi Kristina’s boyfriend turns violent during interview

Nick Gordon, Bobbi Kristina’s boyfriend turned violent during an interview session with the famous Dr Phil.

Gordon who was high on drugs and alcohol turned violent after he realized that the supposed interview was an intervention.

Witnesses at the Atlanta hotel where the interview held say he was so intoxicated he couldn’t stand up and had to be pushed on a luggage cart from the lobby to interview room.

Gordon’s mother, Michelle has staged an intervention with Dr. Phil and made it seem it was an interview.

According to reports, during the first part of the interview, Gordon broke down into tears and screamed “I miss Krissy and Whitney, so much. I hate Bobby Brown.”

However, when Dr. Phil turned the question to his alcoholism and addiction, he realized that the supposed interview was an intervention, Gordon turned violent, stormed out of the interview, and allegedly punched two staff of the show.

During the “interview”, Gordon was so intoxicated that he could barely sit up and was muttering incoherent words. Gordon’s mother did all the talking and told Dr. Phil that her son was addicted to booze and Xanax, a drug used to treat anxiety ad panic disorder caused by depression.

Gordon also threatened to kill himself if Bobbi Kristina’s condition will not improve. The daughter of Bobby Brown and Whitney Houston has remained in a medically induced coma for more than a month now.

During the last weeks, Gordon has been exchanging angry words with BobbyBrown over social media, after he was banned from visiting Bobbi Kristina because he refused to cooperate with the police. Gordon is reportedly a subject of criminal investigation due to questionable injuries Bobbi Kristina is believed to have sustained shortly before being found face down in her bathtub.

Bobbi Kristina is still in an induced coma at the Atlanta’s Emory University Hospital.

Nick Gordon plans to spill Bobbi Kristina’s secrets to doctor

AILING Bobbi Kristina’s boyfriend, Nick Gordon, said he is set to tell his version of events that led to Bobbi Kristina face down in a bathtub near death, but many wonder why he has chosen to disclose that to Dr. Phil rather than the police.

Nick is still under police investigation for the condition of Kristina who has remained in a coma for the third week. And as the target of a criminal investigation that was launched when authorities noticed that Kristina had visible injuries, whatever he says can be held against him.

Nick is said to be meeting with Phil in the next few days and they will set a time for the formal sit-down. A source told TMZ the good doctor will ask about his battles with Bobby Brown and family; battles that have kept him from Bobbi Kristina’s hospital bed.

Meanwhile, has Kristina turned 22 Wednesday. Her father, Bobby Brown, looked understandably drained as he left the Atlanta hospital where Bobbi Kristina has remained in a coma. He had busied himself planning a vigil for her birthday.

He had invited several of his family members to join him at the hospital.

Bobby Brown gives Nick Gordon condition to see Bobbi Kristina

Bobby Brown is calling BS on Nick Gordon for suggesting the family won’t let him see Bobbi Kristina, but observers say when you read between the lines it sounds like there’s a string attached that Nick won’t touch.

Brown lawyer says, “To address the continued and never ending media requests for comment about Mr. Gordon’s requests to visit Bobbi Kristina, let me be very clear, Mr. Gordon was offered an opportunity to potentially visit Bobbi Kristina and he declined to meet the terms of any possible visit.”

The lawyer won’t say what “term” Gordon must meet, but it’s pretty apparent. Reports say since there’s a criminal investigation because Bobbi Kristina had visible injuries when she was rushed to the hospital, and Nick is the target of the investigation, Brown may be suggesting that Nick talk to the police.

The lawyer certainly hinted he wants Nick to sit down with police, saying, “We are only concerned with individuals that can help Bobbi Kristina and bring resolution to the investigation.”

Despite ongoing investigations, it appears Nick has not been interviewed by police.

Nick made a public plea Saturday night to allow him in the hospital, claiming he’s the one who can bring his girlfriend back to life, but Brown’s lawyer scoffs, saying, “Obviously Mr. Gordon is not as desperate to visit Bobbi Kristina as he wants the world to believe.”

Gordon’s attorney says his client’s legal team advised Nick to reject Bobby Brown’s conditions in order to visit Bobbi Kristina. He says Nick has repeatedly offered to meet with Bobby in private to clear the air, rather than go through lawyers, but the singer turned Gordon down.

Nick Gordon ‘declined to meet the terms’ to visit Bobbi Kristina.

The tension between Nick Gordon and Bobbi Christina’s family grows even worse. As Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown’s 21-year-old daughter continues to fight for her life, Gordon tweeted.

“Let me in the hospital to see my girl and let her hear my voice SHE WILL WAKE UP!!! @REALbkBrown @YFKennedy,” he tweeted on Saturday.

“If she hears MY voice let me massage her, play her favorite music I believe it will help. If you ask Bobby anything abt he cannot answer.”

Bobby’s lawyer responded to Gordon’s claims, saying that the family has been willing to let him visit Bobbi Kristina if he is able to meet their terms. “Mr. Gordon was offered an opportunity to potentially visit Bobbi Kristina and he declined to meet the terms of any possible visit,” Christopher Brown of Brown & Rosen LLC said in a statement. “We are only concerned with individuals that can help Bobbi Kristina and bring resolution to this investigation.”

“Obviously Mr. Gordon is not as desperate to visit Bobbi Kristina as he wants the world to believe.”

However the details of the terms were not revealed.

In response to the statement, Gordon tweeted from his twitter handle @nickgordon

“If Bobby can guarantee me that I can see her 24/7 I’ll meet the conditions,” Gordon tweeted on Sunday.

“I can’t wait till she wakes up and dismiss all of the negative thoughts,” another tweet read. “There is a reason why her mom made me promise to look after her.”

In a show of love, Gordon got a tattoo of Bobbi Kristina’s name on his forearm, and posted a pic of the ink on Saturday, writing: “Healing just fine like my baby.”

Also this past week, Gordon further addressed claims that he’s been denied the right to visit her at Atlanta’s Emory University Hospital. “Nick has been trying, privately, to do everything he can to see Bobbi Kristina cooperatively,” Gordon’s lawyers said in a statement. “He has respected the family’s wishes and for that reason alone has not returned to the hospital and risked a public confrontation. But he desperately wants to be with the one he loves and continues to hope that his request will be granted.”

“The numerous fictional reporting involving Bobbi Kristina continues and Bobby Brown’s request for privacy clearly has not been heard by all members of the media,” attorney Christopher Brown said in his statement. “Unfortunately, sensationalism remains high as various news affiliates appear determined to undermine the criminal investigation with its erroneous reporting.”

Bobby, 46, and Bobbi Kristina’s family remain hopeful that she’ll come out of this. “We continue to request privacy in this matter,” Bobby’s lawyer said. “We thank everyone that supports Bobbi Kristina and God is hearing our prayers.”

Nick Gordon is the late Whitney Houston’s adopted son.

Nick Gordon: I can save Bobbi Kristina, but I need to see her

Nick Gordon is making a public plea to let him into his girlfriend, Bobbi Kristina’s hospital room, because he believes his presence could save her life.

In a tweet, Nick said, “Let me in the hospital to see my girl and let her hear my voice SHE WILL WAKE UP!!!”

Nick is going public because he’s getting nowhere with the Brown and Houston family. He has been barred from the hospital and several members of the Brown family have threatened physical harm if he shows his face.

The fallout between Nick and Bobbi Kristina’s family is not unconnected with a criminal investigation which is targeted at the former, because of injuries on Bobbi Kristina’s body when paramedics removed her from her home after she was found submerged in the bathtub.

Nick is said to be groveling to see her with no luck, and now he is publicly pleading for a visit.

It will be recalled that members of the Houston and Brown family have accused Nick Gordon of not trying enough to see ailing Bobbi Kristina in hospital, despite being fingered in the latter’s health situation.

Bobbi Kristina, the only daughter of late music icon, Whitney Houston, was rescued from drowning in her bathtub, and has remained in coma in the last two weeks.

Gordon’s lawyer, Randall Kessler, says Nick’s efforts to see Bobbi Kristina have been consistently blocked by the family. Kessler adds, “Nick has respected the family’s wishes and for that reason alone has not returned to the hospital and risked a public confrontation.”

It was said that Bobby Brown’s relatives have threatened to lay “hands on him” if Nick ever shows up.

Kessler however added that, “He desperately wants to be with the one he loves and continues to hope that his request will be granted.”

As we previously reported, some of Bobbi Krisitna’s organs are beginning to shut down and doctors say it is only a matter of time.

Bobbi Kristina is hanging on, but doctors have already advised pulling life support would be a medically sound decision. Bobby Brown has resisted, believing prayer can work miracles.
