Singer Kim Burrell , a family friend , told CNN on Sunday afternoon from the Grammy Awards ' red carpet that she was with the teenager on Saturday at the Beverly Hilton Hotel after Houston died . This was a few hours after Burrell said she 'd exchanged messages with her close friend , Houston , after she arrived in Los Angeles for the festivities . Whitney Houston 's death sets somber tone for Grammys . `` As to be expected , she 's overwhelmed -- it 's her mother . She knows how much her mother meant to the world .

'' Bobbi Kristina Brown was born in 1993 , during Houston 's marriage to R & B singer Bobby Brown , which ended in divorce in 2007 . The daughter of music royalty became publicly known during the mid-2000s reality show `` Being Bobby Brown , '' where she frequently appeared alongside her parents and often had a front-row seat to their marital fireworks . Houston once said of her only child , `` She encourages me and inspires me . When I look at her eyes and I see myself , I go , 'Okay . I can do this . I can do this . ' '' Mother and daughter even performed together on national TV in 2009 , when the two sang `` My Love Is Your Love '' in Central Park on ABC 's `` Good Morning America .

So far the video has been viewed more than 100,000 times on YouTube . Bobbi Kristina Brown has previously given insight into her relationship with her mother , stating on Twitter , `` I love my family so much ... I 'm so thankful for ( my mother ) . Thank you so much lord for blessing me with an Phenomenal family and incredibly phenomenal mother . '' Less than 24 hours after Whitney Houston 's death stunned fans and the entertainment world , her admirers became tearful and worried again Sunday upon hearing the news that Houston 's daughter was taken to the hospital . `` Really , oh my gosh , '' said Trudy Hunchar , a flight attendant who was accompanied by her 12-year-old daughter , Quinn . On Sunday afternoon , the mom and daughter were paying their last respects to Houston outside the Beverly Hilton Hotel , where the 48-year-old singer died the day before . The parent and child came to the hotel to add a light-pink rose to a growing sidewalk memorial of flowers and candles created by fans . `` I 'm just hoping it 's anxiety or a panic attack or hurt , '' Hunchar said of the daughter 's hospital visit . Then Hunchar expressed concern about the entertainment industry because the Denver family was visiting Los Angeles so that 12-year-old Quinn , an aspiring actress with a movie credit , could meet with an agent and manager about an acting career . `` With her coming into this business , '' Hunchar said , pointing to her daughter , `` I 'll have a tough hand on her . She 's got a strong head . She 's pretty smart . This business is tough , and as best as I can , I 'll have a hand on her .
