According to Crawford, she met a then 16-year-old Houston in 1980 at a summer camp, and that their friendship quickly turned physical and romantic.

Crawford also told NBC News in a new interview that it started with a kiss and then eventually went on to sleeping together. She explained that they never planned it as it was just something that happened.

The relationship went on for two years before the late singer told Crawford they had to end it because she felt it would sink her music career plus there was family pressure.

The interesting twist to this is that sources celebrity gossip site, TMZ spoke to says that contrary to Crawford saying Houston wanted to keep things on the down-low, the late singer often flaunted her relationship with Crawford in public. One source says he saw them at the Crillon Hotel in Paris and they were full-on making out in the lobby, with numerous people watching.

Crawford admitted that Houston’s mother who is a gospel singer disapproved of the relationship saying it wasn’t natural.

Houston died in 2012 in a bathtub at her home from an apparent drug overdose. Prior to her death, she married singer Bobby Brown whom she had one child with, Bobbi Kristina Brown. Following her death, Houston willed her estate to her daughter who also passed a few years later in the same circumstances her mother died, in a bathtub and drugs were involved.
