AceShowbiz - Following Nick Gordon's intervention with Dr. Phil, his unofficial stepfather Jack Walker Jr. opens up about "suicidal" Nick in an interview with Access Hollywood's Shaun Robinson. Jack admits he fears for Nick, who is currently seeking treatment in rehab.
"It hurts a lot, seeing him in pain," Jack, who is like a father figure to Nick, says after seeing Nick's intervention with Dr. Phil. "[Him] not wanting to go forward because he's hurt so bad... It's hard for him each day. He doesn't know if he can make it another day. It's getting harder and harder."
"He's out of control right now. He's hurt. He's hitting rock bottom with this," Jack adds of Nick who entered rehab after he was unable to continue Dr. Phil's interview.
Jack fears for Nick's life if something bad happens to Bobbi Kristina Brown. "If something happens to Bobbi Kristina... if she doesn't pull through then I will fear for my son's life," he says.
Jack confirms to Shaun that Nick's still in rehab. When asked if the rehab was working for Nick, Jack says, "Time will tell," before adding that he "gave [Nick] a call everyday." Asked about what they talked about on the phone, Jack replies, "I don't talk to him about exactly how that is [going]. I just talk to him about staying strong."
During the interview, Shaun brings up rumors about Nick trying to get Whitney Houston's money by dating Bobbi. Jack responds, "I feel if Nick was out for the money why wait to get married or why said he was married or he wasn't married." Shaun then asks Jack if he believes Nick and Bobby were legally married.
Jack replies, "I couldn't say 100 percent sure yes or no. I wasn't there. If you say, 'I eloped,' you know, you've got to take someone's word for it." But then he admits that "everyone was told what the media was told, that they were married."
When asked how Nick met Bobbi, Jack says they were neighbors. He also denies that Nick was adopted by Whitney.
