And speculation about the iconic singer's sexuality is revisited in a new documentary, called Whitney: Can I Be Me?, which will be released in August.
According to People, stylist Ellin Lavar says on the movie, which debuted at the Tribeca Film Festival on Wednesday: 'I don't think she was gay, I think she was bisexual.''
Robyn [now 56], provided a safe place for her … in that Whitney found safety and solace.'
Member of security Kevin Ammons also said: 'Robyn and Whitney were like twins.'
'They were inseparable. They had a bond and Bobby Brown could never remove Robyn. He wanted to be the man in the relationship.
While it's not the first time the rumour mill has talked about Whitney and Robyn's alleged romance, it should be noted that both she and Whitney's mother Cissy refused to take part in the film.
In June last year, Whitney's ex, Bobby Brown, claimed to UsWeekly, that Whitney had a sexual relationship with Robyn.
'I know,' the 47-year-old hit maker said. 'We were married for 14 years. There are some things we talked about that were personal to us,' he added.
He also claimed that the star's mother Cissy did not approve of the relationship, causing Whitney to be lonely.

Whitney always denied the claims about Robyn.
After Houston’s February 2012 death from an overdose of cocaine, marijuana, Benadryl and Xanax, Crawford wrote in a piece for Esquire that Whitney was 'a loyal friend' who 'looked like an angel.'
'I loved her laughter, and that’s what I’ll miss most,' she wrote.
Houston and Crawford met as teens when they both worked at a community center in East Orange, New Jersey.
Crawford became her assistant and later creative director, and was always near the Bodyguard star, the publication added.
In his book Every Little Step, Bobby said Whitney was bisexual.
'I’m a man and she was attracted to me!' he explained to UsWeekly.
Brown thinks her family kept her from living with the woman - and he said it was her mother, Cissy Houston, who was not OK with the relationship.
It was also alleged that Cissy, now 82, wanted Robyn fired.
'I really feel that if Robyn was accepted into Whitney’s life, Whitney would still be alive today,' Brown told the weekly. 'She didn’t have close friends with her anymore.'
Cissy told Oprah Winfrey in 2013 that it 'absolutely' would have bothered her if her daughter was gay. Bobby has also been talking about his late daughter.
Meanwhile, Bobby's daughter, Bobbi Kristina Brown was discovered lifeless in a bathtub just two days before she was set to move to Los Angeles to be closer to him.
Her mother was found unconscious in a bathtub on February 11, 2012, and was declared dead at the scene shortly after.
