Singer Whitney Houston has filed for divorce from her husband Bobby Brown, her publicist said today.
Nancy Seltzer declined to reveal where or when Houston filed the divorce papers, and said the singer had no statement to make.
“I can just confirm that she has filed for divorce,” Ms Seltzer said.
Houston and Brown, who married in 1992, have had a sometimes tumultuous marriage, and rumours of their break-up have surfaced often over the years.
The couple have one child, 13-year-old daughter Bobbi Kristina.
