Bobby Brown interview with Today’s Matt Lauer: “I still love Whitney Houston to this day”

Bobby Brown attempts to clear his name by dispelling the age-old rumors that he was the cause of Whitney Houston’s addiction in his interview with Today’s Matt Lauer.

In addition to recounting how well Whitney Houston looked the week prior to her death, Bobby Brown, 43, told Matt Lauer that he still asks himself if he could have helped her more.

“Maybe I could have done something different. You know?” Bobby Brown said.

“To ensure she had a longer life. But you have to want it.”

Although happily engaged, Bobby Brown had no qualms expressing the love he had for Whitney Houston, his ex-wife of 14 years.

Bobby Brown’s perception is that the couple had a great and “beautiful” relationship.

“I can honestly say that I loved that woman with everything that I am,” he admitted.

“I truly and genuinely love that woman. And I still love her to this day.”

Bobby Brown said it’s no secret (not even to his fiancée) how he felt about Whitney Houston.

“I was in love with her deeply,” he says of his late ex.

It’s commendable for Bobby Brown to take the high road by only having good things to say about Whitney Houston. From the outside looking in the couple may have appeared to be a little rough around the edges. But that’s not to say the love they had for each other wasn’t real. Take a look at the couple during the happier times of their marriage.
