Bobby Brown Leaves Whitney Houston's Funeral

Recently I have been hearing news that former husband of Whitney Houston, Bobby Brown, left her funeral before the services even began. According to news sources, Bobby Brown was asked on three different occasions to move his seat for other close family and friends of Houston. In a rage, Brown stormed out fifteen minutes prior to the start and vented to the media that he felt extremely disrespected. I was very shocked to hear this news. In my opinion it doesn't matter what occurs or how upset someone may become, loved ones of the deceased should always be present at funeral services. It is out of common respect and decency to go and remember those who have passed on. Especially Brown, who was one of the most influential and important people in Houston's life.

I couldn't help but think, what would Whitney think about all of this? It saddens me to think about how disappointed and sad Houston would be if she knew that her former love and father of child would be so immature as to get up and leave during such an important time.

I watched the funeral, which took place on Saturday, February 18, 2012 and thought that it was done beautifully. Before I heard news that Brown had stormed out before the services, I kept wondering where he was and why he did not speak about Houston and her life. I'm sure that it would have made Houston so happy to hear some kind words said about her by her ex-husband, but unfortunately that did not happen.

What I want to know now is, how is Bobby Brown feeling today about what he did? Does he feel bad? Does he realize how blatantly rude and disrespectful he was by acting the way that he did? I hope that he comes out with some sort of a public statement apologizing for acting in such a childish way. Im sure that his daughter, Bobbi Kristina, is so distraught right. She had been hospitalized after hearing about the death of her mother, and now I wonder how she is coping with the fact that her father stormed out of her mother's funeral. I know that if that was me, I would be so upset that I wouldn't know what to do with myself. If I were Bobbi, I would not be talking to my father for a very, very long time. 

Let's hope that Brown is praying for forgiveness somewhere and that he is taking the time to remember and celebrate the life of Whitney Houston in his own private way.
