A Tearful Bobby Brown Talks About Bobbi Kristina's Death On 'The Real'

"If I could have been there two days before, it wouldn't have went down like that."

Bobby Brown gets emotional while talking about the loss of his daughter Bobbi Kristina in a preview of his guest appearance on "The Real." 

"I might walk back there and start crying," Brown is seen telling the show's hosts as he gestures to the backstage area.

"If I could have been there two days before, it wouldn't have went down like that," the 46-year-old adds.  

In a second clip from the episode of "The Real," which airs Monday, Brown says he finds solace in knowing that the late Whitney Houston and their daughter are together. 

"We prayed and hoped for six months for something better to happen, but when God calls you, he calls you. I'm pretty sure her mother was like ... 'Come on, let's get her up here,'" Brown said. "[I mean that] in the best way possible, because she ... was just not comfortable by herself, I guess ... she just called my daughter with her."

Bobbi Kristina Brown, 22, died in hospice care in July. She was hospitalized on Jan. 31 after she was found unresponsive by her boyfriend, Nick Gordon, in a bathtub at the couple's home in Roswell, Georgia.
