Leolah Brown, Bobbi Kristina Brown’s paternal aunt, dropped another explosive claim on Friday, when she wrote that Pat Houston was the mastermind behind Taiwo Sobamowo working at the hospice care center where Bobbi Kristina spent the last days of her life. Sobamowo was recently arrested on charges for impersonating a nurse, fraud, and forgery.
Design & Trend reports that Leolah took to Facebook on November 6 to vent about Pat Houston, claiming that she wasn’t surprised a fake nurse was hired to care for Bobbi Kristina, and that she thinks Pat Houston planned it in order gain control of the late Whitney Houston’s estate.
“I am not surprised that this so called nurse, whom I believe was sent in by Mrs so called Pat Houston, was found to be a fake! Pat has also been a fake from day one! There is a connection between the two of these fake people. Trust!”
Earlier this week, authorities arrested Taiwo Sobamowo, 32, after determining she used an illegitimate nurse’s RN license number in order to gain employment as a nurse. Along with working at the Peachtree Christian Hospice center where Bobbi Kristina stayed, Sobamowo also gained employment at numerous other places, including an assisted living facility in Forsyth County, Georgia.
Sobamowo appeared in court on Thursday at the Forsyth County Magistrate Court, in front of Chief Magistrate Judge Walker Bramblett. CNS News reports that the alleged imposter didn’t say much during her appearance aside from telling the judge how to pronounce her name. In addition to charges of identity theft, forgery, and practicing nursing without a license in Forsyth County, Sobamowo may also face similar charges in Duluth, Georgia, where a hold has been placed for her arrest.
So far, there is no indication that Sobamowo played any part in Bobbi Kristina’s death, but she was among a team of several other nurses who cared for the 22-year-old.
This isn’t the first time Leolah Brown has accused Pat Houston of trying to gain access to R&B singer’s Whitney Houston’s estate. Throughout most of the year, Leolah has said time and time again that Pat Houston is “shady” and only after monetary gain. The feud between the two aunts increased to the point where Leolah insulted Pat during Bobbi Kristina’s memorial service on August 1, at the Saint James United Methodist Church in Alpharetta, Georgia.
New York Daily News reports that Leolah stormed out of the memorial service when Pat walked up to give an eulogy, but before she left, Leolah left Pat with a scathing threat.
“I just told her that Whitney is going to haunt her from the grave. She is being the phony person that she is.”
Leolah also revealed earlier this year that Whitney Houston wanted Bobbi Kristina left in her care, despite the public assumption that Pat Houston was left as guardian. She also indicated that the only thing Pat was left in charge of was Whitney Houston’s estate, which was passed on to Pat by Whitney’s mother, Cissy Houston.
“I, Leolah Brown was the only one that Whitney [Houston] left guardianship to when it came to [her daughter] Bobbi Kristina. This is the main reason Pat hates me! Pat Garland has NEVER been a ‘guardian’ over my niece Bobbi Kristina Brown. That was THE BIGGEST LIE TOLD by her and whomever supported that lie.”
Pat Houston recently opened up about Bobbi Kristina Brown during an exclusive interview with Entertainment Tonight . She made no mention of Leolah Brown’s accusations.
