Caesar, said she never lost hope when hearing the trials of Whitney and Bobby played out in the media. She calls Bobby a special person and says God’s hand is on Bobby’s life too.
In the exclusive interview Caesar was asked If she held Bobby responsible for what happened. “No, I blame the Devil for it,” says Caesar. “The Devil does not want a part, he wants your heart. He wants everything about you. And once he gets that he will leave you a skeleton. He will leave you high and dry, with nothing. Ah, but God!”
