Touching on the speculations and reports that have emerged in the wake of her mother’s death, Bobbi Kristina was quick to defend her mother.
The teenager said: “So many people saying so many other things they don’t know who she really was.”
“All that negativity it’s garbage – that’s not my mother that’s not who she is. In reality I know who she was, her family knows who she was, you know who she was.”
Bobbi Kristina also revealed that she didn’t realize the height of her mother’s fame or her iconic status around the world – until she was gone.
She explained: “I just saw her as mom.
“When I realized that my mom was a worldwide icon was when we did gone on tour and then the funeral and everything.
“This woman made an impact on the world.”
