“Happy birthday to Kevin Costner!” » said the caption of the message. “A behind-the-scenes photo from ‘The Bodyguard’ with Kevin, Whitney and Ellin La Var, Whitney’s hairstylist for the film.”
Costner reposted the photo, writing, “This photo reminds me how lucky I am to have another birthday.” We lost such a light when we lost Whitney.
The “I Have Nothing” singer died in 2012 after accidentally drowning in a bathtub while under the influence of cocaine. She was 48 years old.
Houston’s body was discovered in a hotel bathroom in Beverly Hills, California. There was no foul play, according to the coroner’s report.
Xanax, marijuana, Benadryl and Flexeril were also found in his system. The effects of atherosclerotic heart disease also contributed to the Grammy winner’s death.

Bobby Brown, who was married in Houston from 1992 to 2007, previously claimed that Nick Gordon was responsible for the deaths of the singer and their daughter, Bobbi Kristina Brown.

“He was the only one who went through both situations with my ex-wife and my daughter, and they both died the same way,” said Bobby, now 55.
Bobbi Kristina, the former couple’s only daughter, had benzodiazepine and several other medications in her system when she died in 2015 at the age of 22.
She was found unconscious in a bathtub at her Georgia home.
Before her death, Bobbi Kristina received hospice care at several different facilities and was even put into a medically induced coma.
