Amidst speculation that Bobbi Kristina Brown will soon be taken off life support, her aunt Leolah Brown debunked the rumors in a very long, new Facebook message on Tuesday, June 16. In the update, Leolah ripped Bobbi’s joint legal guardian Pat Houston, alleging that she told Bobby Brown that it was “costing too much money” to keep Bobbi Kristina alive.

“The BIG lie has been told again that my niece Bobbi Kristina is going to be brought home..only to leave us,” Leolah wrote, telling fans to be certain of the following facts. “BOBBI KRISTINA BROWN IS ‘NOT’ ON LIFE SUPPORT ANYMORE … AND WE WILL NEVER GIVE UP ON HER! HELL NO! NOT ONE BROWN!” she wrote.

Leolah went on to say that her niece, 22, is getting “the best care possible and that she is indeed continuing to improve in-spite of the lies being told.”

Leolah directed much of her rage toward Pat Houston, Whitney Houston’s sister-in-law who was named Bobbi Kristina’s joint legal guardian with Bobby last month. “Ms. So-called Pat Houston… had the nerve to sarcastically say to my brother Bobby, ‘why don’t he just pull the plug on Bobbi Kriss, because it’s costing too much money to keep her alive!'” Leolah claimed. “YES, Pat Garland did have that nerve to say that to Bobbi Kristina’s father Bobby.”

According to Leolah, Bobby supposedly replied: “I don’t give a dam how much money it takes to keep my daughter alive! It’s not about the money! I will do what I have to to keep my daughter alive!”

While grandmom Cissy Houston has claimed that Bobbi Kristina is “not progressing” in rehab, Leolah wrote on Tuesday that she had shown improvement. “GOD IS ON OUR SIDE!” she shared. “If Pat knew The God that I know, instead of trying to inherit my niece’s money for her personal gain, she would mind her own business and go find A JOB for herself without continuously working so hard to destroy my niece, beg her for money and get angry when she cannot get it! She would stop using the Houston name for her personal agenda.”

Leolah also claimed that the late Whitney Houston was no fan of Pat. “My God! If Whitney was here!” she wrote. “You would have been LONG GONE! Better yet, if Whitney was here, YOU WOULD NOT BE ANYWHERE NEAR HER ESTATE OR MY NIECE… Instead of trying to get control over my niece’s money that her mother Whitney (who could not STAND the sight of you) left her (Bobbi Kriss), why don’t you seek a profession on your own Pat?”

The angry aunt claimed her niece, who was found facedown and unresponsive in a bathtub on Jan. 31, allegedly shared her late mother’s dislike of Pat. “Bobbi Kristina HATES Pat for what Pat has done to her and her mother…just like the rest of us WHO TRULY LOVED WHITNEY,” Leolah continued. “If anyone could turn in their grave it would be Whitney Houston! Pat has NO RIGHT WHATSOEVER to be anywhere near my niece’s Estate! Whitney would NEVER CONDONE OR AGREE to that! AND THAT’S A FACT! I KNOW THIS FOR SURE! And EVERY HOUSTON KNOWS THIS TO BE ABSOLUTELY TRUE AS WELL!”

She said that her brother has remained resolute through the battle. “You know that he is ONLY concerned with what is BEST for his daughter and WILL ONLY do right by her,” Leolah wrote of Bobby, directing her disdain once again at Pat.

Leolah acknowledged the intensity of her latest Facebook update. “Yeah, I know Leolah sounds a bit harsh right now..and I should! I am my niece’s REAL AUNT! I HAVE GENUINE LOVE FOR BOBBI KRISS-Just like I have love for Whitney AND MY BROTHER BOBBY!” she wrote. “Hell! Someone tried to take my niece’s LIFE! AND FOR WHAT!? I KNOW FOR WHAT! Yeah, this is REAL! Whitney could answer it for you if she was here! But, Whitney’s life has been taken so that she cannot be here to defend herself nor her Estate or daughter anymore.”

According to Leolah, Pat has been manipulating the family for years. “Only reason you even worked for her was because you were with her brother Gary. But you are evil to have manipulated the Houston family and Gary’s MARRIAGE TO MONIQUE!” she wrote. “And now you are happy without Whitney and having Krissi where she is. Now you ain’t even got Gary because he don’t want your evil ass anymore! Well, Monique Houston is his real wife anyways! So you never did have him! Yeah-I went there! I am sick and tired of you evil ass people lusting over money so much that you would wish a life gone! An actual owner of their very own money! You hateful WITCH!”

Leolah said the fight was just beginning. “You called me out now! Yall want to play games with my niece’s life and think THE BROWNS are weak enough to allow it! You got Leolah way messed up!” she wrote. “Stay tuned for my RADIO INTERVIEW where I will speak THE PLAIN TRUTH!!! This ain’t nothing! There is so much more to come!!!”
