Last night (October 24, 2012 ) the first episode of THE HOUSTON’s reality television show ( ON OUR OWN) premiered on lifetime. The show follows the Houston family after Whitney Houston’s death. The cast includes
Bobbi Kristina (Whitney Houston’s daughter)
Cissy Houston (Whitney Houston’s mother)
Gary Houston (Whitney Houston’s brother)
Pat Houston (Whitney Houston’s sister-in-law/manager)
Rayah Houston (Whitney Houston’s niece/Pat and Gary’s daughter)
Nick Gordon (Whitney Houston’s extended son/Godson)
The first episode of the new show was filmed in May 2012 and was focused around Mother’s Day weekend. Krissi and Nick announced to the family that they were engaged and the news did not sit well with Gary and Pat. The family flew to Newark, to spend time with Grandma Cissy for Mother’s Day. The plan was to go to church with grandma, brunch, and then visit Whitney’s grave site. Bobbi Kristina chose not to attend the church service that morning, because she felt as if she was not ready to go back in the church only 3 months after her mother’s funeral. She stated, “I would have flash backs of her casket being at the front of the church.” I definitely can understand why Bobbi Kristina does not want to go back to New Hope Baptist Church just yet. Alot of tears were shed in that church on February 18.2012, and there is still much healing left for her to get through. This show seems as if it will be filled with love and drama, I look forward to the next 13 episodes.
