It was only going to be a matter of time before Whitney Houston’s daughter, Bobbi Kristina, opened up about the tragic death of her mother. And who better to speak to than chat show queen Oprah Winfrey?

A trailer, aired on US TV, which is currently unavailable in the UK, shows Oprah chatting to the 19-year-old, as well as Whitney’s brother Gary and her sister-in-law and manager Patricia.

Apparently Oprah is a close family friend, which we suppose makes her the ideal person to discuss this still raw topic with them. Whitney died on February 11 at the age of 48 in her room at the Beverly Hills Hilton. It has been reported that some family members are calling for a murder investigation to be launched.

In the trailer, which we have to say is slightly OTT with one of those movie voice overs, we see her asking Patricia: "Does it feel real yet, that she died?"

She then turns to Gary and says: "As a big brother, how did you feel about Bobby Brown?"

Whitney and Bobby Brown famously had a very tumultuous relationship, during which Whitney’s struggle with drugs began. Oprah knows the situation very well, as it was on her show that Whitney first spoke about her addiction and her marriage.

You may be wondering why Bobbi Kristina has felt the need to speak so publically and so soon about her mother’s death. She has been reported as saying she chose Oprah because she was “loyal to my mum, and never did my mother wrong, or made her look bad. She always looked out for my mum.”

And yeah, why not? It’s not like speaking to Jeremy Kylie, is it? Oprah is like a cuddly mummy. The special edition of Oprah's Next Chapter will be aired on US channel Own on Sunday, March 11. We’ll let you know when you can catch it in the UK.
