A source gave People magazine an update on how Gordon is doing in rehab earlier this month.

"Nick is responding well to rehab treatment with no relapses. The quiet time is good for him. He needed it."

Gordon was at the scene when Brown was found unconscious and face down in a bathtub in her Atlanta home on Jan. 31. He has also made several claims that Brown's family, particularly her famous father Bobby Brown, has banned him from visiting Bobbi Kristina.

Since then, he has had several outbursts on social media and even with Dr. Phil on live television. That was his breaking point as Dr. Phil advised him to get help in rehab. The insider added, "Nick is a special person with many temptations and needs to be in a place where he can continue to heal and grow. He should stay for a long time - as long as he will allow."

They went on to say that it is good for Gordon to be tucked away versus being out in the public.

"This way he can continue to improve himself and move forward in a beter life. It is a blessing that he is in rehab."

Gordon and Bobbi Kristina, who is the only child of late singer Whitney Houston, claimed they were married more than a year ago. But since her hospitalization, authorities were unable to find any records regarding a marriage. So Bobby is the one making medical decisions for Bobbi Kristina right now.
