Whitney Houston's Husband: Not Quite Going Down with the Ship (But Maybe Getting a Splash)
Whitney Houston's life was a glorious melody, tragically cut short in 2012. But what about the man behind (or sometimes in front of, depending on the tabloid headline) the "I Will Always Love You" songstress? Bobby Brown, the R&B bad boy with a smile that could melt glaciers (and possibly freezers full of ice cream), is still very much alive.
Hold on, I Thought They Were a Power Couple? Weren't They Always Together?
Nope! Sure, Whitney and Bobby's whirlwind romance was the stuff of tabloid dreams (and nightmares). Their 1992 marriage was a beautiful disaster, filled with passionate highs and tearful lows. Let's just say their fights were legendary, and involved more melisma than a Mariah Carey concert. By 2007, they threw in the towel, and Whitney emerged with their daughter, Bobbi Kristina.
So, How'd Bobby Dodge the Pearly Gates?
Here's the thing: the internet is a vast and wonderful place, but accuracy isn't always its strong suit. Maybe you stumbled upon a click-bait headline like "Whitney Houston's Husband Found Dead in Bathtub!" Relax, internet friend, that was Whitney herself who passed away in a bathtub incident. A terrible tragedy, for sure, but Bobby is still belting out tunes and living his life.
Maybe you're thinking of the couple's daughter, Bobbi Kristina, who passed away in 2015 under eerily similar circumstances. Another heartbreaking loss.
Bobby Brown: Living Proof That the 90s Can Survive Anything
While Whitney's passing undoubtedly affected Bobby, he has continued with his music career. He's even dabbled in reality TV (remember "Being Bobby Brown"?). Through thick and thin, frosted tips and all, Bobby Brown has persevered.
So, there you have it. The mystery of Bobby Brown's continued existence is solved! The next time the internet throws shade his way, you'll be the cool kid in the corner, armed with the truth.
