Bobby Brown’s 36-year-old son, Landon Brown, revealed what he most regret doing to his step-mother, Whitney Houston. Before we get into details about what Landon did, we must first explain their relationship. Landon and Whitney were very close, and Landon said that Whitney always treated him as one of her own. With that said, the old school saying, ‘those you love the most, can hurt you the most’ applies to the situation Landon revealed about a couple incidents between he and his step-mom.

LANDON BROWN REGRETS WHAT HE SAID ABOUT WHITNEY IN NATIONAL ENQUIRER INTERVIEW

In 2008, Landon did an interview with the National Enquirer, but says he wasn’t aware that the publication was gonna twist his words and turn them into something negative.

LANDON’S INTERVIEW MISTAKENLY PAINTED WHITNEY AS A QUESTIONABLE MOTHER

Landon never implied that Whitney was a bad parent, but the quotes that were used in his National Inquirer interview implied that he was saying she was a physically abusive parent and that he was being kept away from his sister, Bobbi Kristina, at that time. Landon said neither one of those insinuated claims were ever the case, and that Whitney never did such a thing.

THERE WAS ONE MORE THING THAT WHITNEY EVENTUALLY CALLED LANDON OUT ON…

BOBBY’S SON WAS CAUGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF HIS REAL MOM & WHITNEY

According to Landon, there was an incident where Landon’s real mother, Melika Williams, and Whitney were together in the same setting one day. Landon calls both of them mom, but says he felt really uncomfortable calling Whitney ‘mom’ in front of his actual mother. Torn between not wanting to hurt either one of their feelings, this is what Landon did instead:

Landon Brown – “I playfully called her (Whitney) ‘lady.’ I was like, ‘Hey lady, you want some cake?’ I just wasn’t sure if I should call them both mom or if that would make my mother feel a lil uncomfortable. I thought it was nothing until she called me later that night after the festivities asking why I didn’t call her mom. I was a lil shocked. I thought it was a strange moment, but nothing she’d remember. I felt like a jerk!

I still didn’t know what I should’ve done in that situation, but for some reason I felt wrong. I know it really hurt her when my sister called shortly after asking what had I done cause [Whitney] was upset. I explained what happened and my sister laughed at me and told me you should’ve just called her mom you know you have more than one! That made me really feel terrible that my youngest sister saw the answer so clearly! I love my mothers and my siblings and I would never want to be the guy to slander their names.” [via AlwaysAList]

Landon’s inner confliction at that time is understandable…it was a seemingly awkward position he was in at that moment. Thankfully, Landon and Whitney were still able to move past that hurt and go back to a normal mother-son type of relationship. Landon loved Whitney dearly, just like he loves his real mother, and that is a bond that — no matter what happens — can never be broken. May his beloved step-mom, little sis,’ and brother, Bobby Brown Jr. continue to rest peacefully.
