Oprah Winfrey Lands First Interview With Bobbi Kristina & Whitney Houston's Family

Oprah Winfrey has secured an exclusive interview with the late Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown’s 18-year-old daughter, Bobbi Kristina Brown.
It's a massive coup for the talk show behemoth, who attended Houston's Newark funeral with her family. 
The talk will be broadcasted on Oprah’s Next Chapter airing Sunday, March 11 at 9 p.m, according to The Hollywood Reporter.


As well as what can only be a compelling conversation with Bobbi Kristina, Winfrey will speak to Houston’s sister-in-law and manager Patricia Houston, and brother Gary Houston.
A release from the network reads: 'Bobbi Kristina shares personal memories of her mom and how she would like the iconic superstar to be remembered. 
The family also addresses the rumours and speculation surrounding Houston’s death.'
Before the interview at 7 p.m., OWN will re-air its special, Remembering Whitney: The Oprah Interview, which features the singer’s 2009 interview on The Oprah Winfrey Show and Winfrey’s own personal memories of the star.
It was during a 2009 interview with Oprah that Bobbi's mother described her father as a 'drug.'
Houston, who was making a music comeback after seven years, told Winfrey that she and Brown took cocaine and marijuana during their marriage. 
'He (Brown) was my drug,' Houston added. 'I didn't do anything without him.'
Houston said she was attracted to Brown because he took control of their relationship and had 'a sweet, gentle tenderness.'
'At home, he was very much the father, he was very much the man,' Houston said. 
'He was very much in control. I liked that. When he said something, I listened. I was very interested in having someone have that kind of control over me. It was refreshing.'
The singer, who died at the age of 49 on February 11, described her drug use, saying it became 'heavy' after her 1992 movie 'The Bodyguard.'
