It's time for some more Bobby Brown tea from yours truly-- and this next cup is definitely going to cause quite a stir. According to his book, "Every Little Step," Bobby revealed that he believes Nick Gordon was supplying drugs to Whitney Houston, before her death.

He recalls the first few times he heard the name "Nick" when Whitney or Bobbi Kristina would mention him. Immediately, Bobby has a funny feeling about him. "It didn't make any sense to me why my ex-wife would let some nearly grown-a** man live in the house with my thirteen- or fourteen-year-old daughter...I heard stories from some of my friends in Atlanta that he used to hang around Krissi's middle school, which was extremely suspicious to me because he was at least five years older than the middle schoolers," Bobby wrote in the memoir.

He continued, "What would a seventeen- or eighteen-year-old want with middle schoolers?"

When Bobby would explain his reservations for Nick to Whitney, she would try to ensure Bobby that Nick was harmless. But, he wasn't buying any of that.

"I didn't have enough information about him to be comfortable with the arrangement, I started to suspect that his presence was more about Whitney than Krissi--I began to believe he was providing my ex-wife with drugs."
