Musical icon Whitney Houston passed virtually seven years ago, however that hasn't stopped her from being within the information. Besides the new music that was simply launched a few months in the past posthumously, Whitney's close pal and artistic director Robyn Crawford is liberating a new memoir — detailing a lesbian-lover situation between the 2 of them.

The rumors have been flying around for years sooner than this memoir, but it surely was one thing that Whitney at all times denied publicly.

Well, after her death, Robyn decided it was once time to inform the reality about their relationship.

The pair had always been close, even prior to Whitney was famous, which is what sparked the rumors. But in her new tell-all memoir titled A Song for You: My Life With Whitney Houston, Robyn is ready to be fair with everyone.

Was Robyn Crawford Whitney Houston's lesbian lover? The pair used to be bodily intimate before Whitney was well-known.

In an interview ahead of the book's free up, Robyn admits that their dating used to be bodily intimate before Whitney entered the track business.

"We were intimate on many levels and all I can say was that it was very deep and we were very connected," she mentioned in an interview with Today. "Our friendship was a deep friendship. In the early part of that friendship, it was physical."

No one knew that the couple was once ever romantically connected although Whitney used to be requested about her sexual orientation in interviews for years. Whitney all the time stored her good friend on the sidelines throughout public interactions.

"It was ours," Robyn said of their courting.

Whitney ended it when she started her rise to fame.

While Whitney by no means got rid of Robyn from her lifestyles, she instructed her that they will have to end the bodily side in their relationship when she began within the song business.

"She said, 'I don't believe we should be physical anymore,'" Robyn stated. "The music business was a world that we were learning and we didn't want anything to interfere with where she was going."

But regardless, Robyn was there with her.

"I just felt that I wouldn't be losing much," she said. "I still loved her the same and she loved me and that was good enough."

Robyn has made up our minds to unencumber this tale now, after her death, to "share who that woman was behind all the fame."

"I never envisioned speaking publicly about my life and then I asked myself the question, 'What would Whitney want? Would she understand you know, the time is now?'" Robyn said.

Robyn additionally admitted that she's certain some people will doubt her retelling — especially since Whitney spent all of the ones years denying it. But that's one thing that she's prepared to accept.

"Some people may feel that way," she mentioned. "Hopefully they won't."

Robyn says that Whitney's drug dependancy and marriage to Bobby Brown led to their estrangement.

While the 2 had been close for many years, they was estranged earlier than Whitney's dying. Robyn claims that it used to be each Whitney's battle with drug dependancy and her marriage to husband Bobby Brown that resulted in their eventual departure.

Robyn's e book, A Song for You: My Life With Whitney Houston, is printed by Penguin Publishing Group and is expected for release on Nov. 12.
