Friends reveal that Whitney Houston was a lesbian

Whitney Houston was a secret lesbian and binged on the drugs and alcohol that killed her because she was torn over living a lie, it has been claimed.

Rumours have been circulating for 30 years that the singer had had a secret relationship with her former assistant, but her friends have now publicly spoken about her sexuality following her death.

Gay rights activist Peter Tatchell even said her marriage to Bobby Brown was a smokescreen, The Star reports.
