Teddy Riley has been in the industry a long time. If you can believe it, his tenure lasts over 25 years. And accordingly, he knows his way around the ups and downs of the business. Which is why his latest claim feels so honest. 

After talking to VIBE about his love of Whitney and their work together, the R&B star recalled the misconceptions about Whitney's later years and, of course, life with Ray J. "Ray J really had Whitney's ears. He was there for her. He was there through everything she went through. He was a true friend," he confided. 

Even adding, ""Ray J was there for Bobbi Kristina. Some of the things that I've seen and heard, Ray J was there for both of them through it all. I can't really say too much because I know the true stories and its private. There was talk of another Bodyguard movie. I really wanted to work with her on the Sparkle soundtrack. I know Whitney was on her way back up."

It is true everyone is quick to judge. Maybe their relationship was more solid and more healthy than people know.
