HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Bobby Brown is dishing plenty of dirt on his rocky 15-year marriage to Whitney Houston in his new tell-all autobiography.
Among Brown’s juicy revelations revealed in Thursday’s New York Post — Houston drove him deeper into drug use.
“I never used cocaine until after I met Whitney,” Brown writes in “Bobby Brown: The Truth, the Whole Truth and Nothing But,” which hits bookshelves next month.
“Before then, I had experimented with other drugs, but marijuana was my drug of choice,” Brown continues. “At one point in my life, I used drugs uncontrollably. I was using everything I could get my hands on, from cocaine to heroin, weed and cooked cocaine.”
Brown married Houston in 1992 and the couple officially divorced in 2007. They have one child together, 15-year-old daughter Bobbi Kristina. Brown says the marriage was “doomed from the very beginning.”
“Within the first year we separated, with several more to follow,” the 39-year-old Brown writes. “I think we got married for all the wrong reasons. Now, I realize Whitney had a different agenda than I did when we got married … I believe her agenda was to clean up her image, while mine was to be loved and have children.”
Brown admits he had his own failures in the relationship, including his inability to remain faithful to the 44-year-old pop star.
“Women are always throwing themselves at you,” he writes. “I’m only human, so I would make the mistake and bite the hook sometimes. I let the testosterone take over.”
