The death of Bobbi Kristina Brown, daughter of Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown, is still hanging over her friends and family as they continue to grieve, but Pat Houston, her aunt, recently opened up about the events leading up to Bobbi Kristina’s death during an interview with Entertainment Tonight.

Houston said that she was like a second mother to Bobbi Kristina and that she had wanted to send her niece to a rehab facility. “When we really found out that Krissy was in trouble, we were really making plans to do something about it,” she told ET, “but it came too late.”

She also spoke about the restraining order she had filed against Nick Gordon, which she admitted didn’t work because Bobbi Kristina “didn’t understand it.”

“External attraction can really cause problems,” she explained.

Houston continued on to say that it was difficult to come to terms with the death of her niece when the family still had not fully recovered from losing Whitney Houston in 2012.

She recalled a time when the family visited the hotel room where Whitney died in 2013:

When we went into the room it was just so peaceful and calm and the room was lit — it was like it was candle lit. It was just very, very calming. I went into the bathroom and I placed the flowers at the tub and I just sat there and just was thinking, ‘What happened? How did we get here?’
