If I was her mother, no way would I want him to attend the funeral. As far as drug abuse going on, we didn't live in their house we don't know who bought what. Or who smoked whatever, but it's no secret that he beat her so bad she had to call the police a few times. I would not want the man who beat my daughter at her funeral. It would get really ugly if he tried to attend, jmo.

Ban that SOB bad boy durg addict, spousal abuser and loser Bobby Brown form Whitney's funeral. Whitney took care of him and paid his child support for his various baby mamas and the thanks he gave whitney was to have her dooped up on drugs with him and damage her career and her voice. I believe that this worthless leech was jealous of Whitney career. The devil always come to destroy, to steal and to kill and this is what the devil did in Whitney's live in the form of loser and bad boy Bobby Brown.

Whitney was their daughter. They have the right to say who can and cannot be there.
If Bobby wants to be there for his daughter, he can be there for her before and after the funeral. She'll have plenty of family members there to help her through.
