THE DAUGHTER of the late Whitney Houston has announced she is engaged to controversial boyfriend Nick Gordon.
Bobbi Kristina took to Facebook yesterday (July 10) to announce her happy news and defend her relationship with Gordon, who many see as her 'brother'.
She wrote: "YES, we me nick (sic) are engaged. I’m tired of hearing people say “eww your engaged to your brother or if Whitney was still alive would we be together or would she approve of this.”'
Their relationship has been the subject of scrutiny and a fair amount of eyebrow raising since their mother passed away in February last year.
Gordon was raised by Houston as though her own son, but Bobbi maintains that her late mother would have approved of the relationship.
"Let me clear up something," she wrote. "We aren’t even real brother and sister nor is he my adoptive brother. My mom never adopted him. In fact, mommy was the one who even said that she knew that we were going to start dating. My mom knows me better than any of you."
She continued: "A lot of ‘yall are saying that y’all are only saying this all out of love. Which is bull because if that was so, all you would want is for me to be happy.
"People need to seriously stop judging my relationship. Pretty sure it’s my own decision who I want to be with."
In October, a representative for Bobbi Kristina denied reports that the pair were engaged.
