Brown: “Whitney wouldn’t have wanted me to leave funeral”

Bobby Brown, who did in fact show up to Whitney Houston’s funeral today, left the funeral, just when the funeral was getting started…

Brown was told by security to move out of the front pews of the church, and he was then separated from his daughter Bobbi Christina. Brown also brought too many people that weren’t RSVPed- Bobby plus 2 was on the list. You can read that story HERE.

Brown released this statement after he abruptly left the funeral:

“My children and I were invited to the funeral of my ex-wife Whitney Houston. We were seated by security and then subsequently asked to move on three separate occasions.”

“I fail to understand why security treated my family this way and continue to ask us and no one else to move. Security then prevented me from attempting to see my daughter Bobbi-Kristina. In light of the events, I gave a kiss to the casket of my ex-wife and departed as I refused to create a scene. My children are completely distraught over the events. This was a day to honor Whitney. I doubt Whitney would have wanted this to occur. I will continue to pay my respects to my ex-wife the best way I know how.”
