Bobbi Kristina Brown's relatives aren't the only ones hoping for a miracle. Kevin Costner — who famously costarred with Brown's late mother, music legend Whitney Houston, in 1992's The Bodyguard — told ABC's Nightline recently that he's praying for the 21-year-old aspiring singer to get a second chance.
Costner, 60, spoke with Nightline co-anchor Juju Chang on Friday, Feb. 6, less than a week after Brown was found facedown and unresponsive in her tub on Jan. 31. She has now been in the hospital for 13 days and, according to her aunt Leolah (sister to Brown's father Bobby Brown), is still on life support.
News of Brown's hospitalization first broke just a little over a week before the third anniversary of her mother's death. The late Houston was found under similar circumstances — drowned in a tub — back in February 2012. Costner gave a eulogy at her funeral.
"My thoughts are probably similar to everyone," the actor told Chang, "which is, obviously, the similarities, what's going on, the worry that this might have happened again."
In recent days, there's been conflicting information about Brown's current condition. While some reports previously suggested that she was brain dead, Bobby's sister Leolah has said that there are "so many signs showing us that she will be okay."
"The facts are the facts right now, that she's sitting here, fighting for her life, surrounded by the people who love her the most," Costner said on Nightline. "We understand the pressure they're under. I think nobody wants more than her family, and if she could speak for herself, [for her] to have a second chance at this most precious life that we are all given."
He added: "I hope that God opens her eyes and lets her breathe and lets her brain work, and she gets a second chance."
