Earlier this week, the Chicago Sun-Times reported that Houston and Brown had been spotted “looking very romantic” during recent dinner dates in Georgia and that their teenage daughter, Bobbi Kristina, was eager for her parents to remarry.

But a rep for Houston tells The Associated Press that the report is “a complete fabrication.”

Houston and Brown divorced in April 2007 after 14 years of marriage.

BOBBY BROWN & WHITNEY HOUSTON MIGHT JUST REMARRIED…..


1#

Bobby and Whitney have rekindled their romance about a month ago, now there’s speculation about them getting remarried. WTH!!!! Well sources closes to Bobby Brown say that: “They’re more in love than ever – and Bobby’s going to [re]marry her.” We may all get a chance to see Bobby and Whitney’s whirlwind reunion up close and personal.

The insider explains, “Bobby wants to make a reality show about their new life – kind of like a Being Bobby Brown PART 2. There is more to this story as the Chicago SunTimes Reports:

The official word from Camp Houston sticks to to the old line about the divorced couple remaining separate, ”but good friends whose primary interest is the well-being of their daughter.” Yet, several Georgia sightings of Houston and Brown in recent days — clearly looking very romantic while dining together — seem to boost the reliability of what I’m hearing. I’m also hearing that the divorced couple’s daughter Bobbi Kristina is eager for her parents to remarry.

Bobby Brown and Whitney Houston have been sighted together several times in Georgia recently.


•     Meanwhile, the singer is facing another round of legal woes, stemming from an ongoing lawsuit filed last May by Whitney’s stepmother, Barbara Houston. In the lawsuit, first reported by tmz.com, Barbara Houston claimed Whitney was the beneficiary of a $1 million insurance policy left by her late father, John Houston. However, the suit further claims his estate instructions called for those funds to be used to retire the balance of the mortgage loan owed Whitney on his New Jersey condominium, with Barbara getting the remainder of the funds.

Whitney disputes all of Barbara Houston’s claims and is continuing to fight the case.

•     Houston herself was the target of a $100 million lawsuit her dad filed against her shortly before his death, claiming he was owed the megabucks for management fees never paid. John Houston long managed both his ex-wife Cissy Houston’s career, as well as Whitney’s at various points.

Both father and daughter always maintained that lawsuit, settled before John Houston’s death in 2003, ”was strictly about business” and never had an impact upon their personal relationship, said to be quite close at the time of his demise.
