Whitney Houston: The Drama Didn’t Stop With Her Death

Her Assistant Reveals Their Big Secret

Not too long ago (in 2019), the truth came out about what really went on behind the scenes of Houston’s and her former assistant’s relationship. Robyn Crawford, who worked with Houston for 20 years, came clean about their hidden affair.

Crawford wrote a tell-all called A Song for You, which is essentially a story of two women who kept their intimate relationship a secret. As a result, Crawford was criticized and (allegedly) threatened violently by the singer’s family. Choosing to break the silence wasn’t an easy decision for Crawford, but she wanted to let the truth out.
