Long-rumoured relationship detailed in Crawford’s new memoir, which also depicts Houston’s friendship with Eddie Murphy
Robyn Crawford, a close female friend of Whitney Houston, has said the pair had a sexual relationship.
Rumours have long surrounded Houston and Crawford, who made the revelations in her memoir, A Song for You: A Life with Whitney Houston, and in an interview with
NBC News. “In the early part of that friendship, it was physical,” Crawford told NBC. “It was during that first summer that we met, was the first time our lips touched. And it wasn’t anything planned, it just happened. And it felt wonderful. And then, not long after that, we spent the night together. And that evening was the night that we touched. And that just brought us closer.”
