BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP) – Clive Davis says he’s been in touch with Whitney Houston’s family and is praying for her daughter, Bobbi Kristina Brown.
Davis, who was Houston’s mentor, said in an interview Thursday that he’s “offered my support and prayers and they’re so grateful.”
Police said the 21-year-old daughter of Houston and R&B singer Bobby Brown was taken to a hospital Saturday after she was found unresponsive in a bathtub in a suburban Atlanta town house. A statement from the Houston family this week said she was fighting for her life.
“Of course it’s heartbreaking to see the family go through this pain once again,” Davis said at the Beverly Hilton Hotel, where Houston died in 2012 and where he will hold his pre-Grammy Awards gala this weekend.
Davis discovered Houston and guided her career.
“They just ask that the public respect their privacy,” he added.
