Hynie reveals her husband was planning a Christmas surprise for her as part of a reunion following Hynie's drug rehabilitation stint to wean herself off painkillers.

She has since learned from Brown's personal manager CHARLES BOBBITT that her husband was planning to reveal all about a renewal of vows ceremony he had planned.

Hynie, who learned of her husband's passing via a telephone message while she was in a final therapy session, says, "Mr Bobbitt left me a message that my husband had just passed, (and) to call him right away... I called immediately after that.

"He (Brown) had a big surprise for me. And the big surprise was that we were going to renew our vows and Mr Bobbitt knew this."
