WHITNEY WAS ‘ABUSED BY KIN’

- Nicole Bitette

Whitney Houston was sexually abused by her cousin, singer Dee Dee Warwick, according to a documentar­y that premiered at the Cannes film festival on Wednesday.

Mary Jones, a longtime assistant to Houston, revealed in the film that the singer told her she’d been molested by Warwick at a young age. Warwick, who was 18 years older than Houston, died in 2008 at 63. Houston (above) died in 2012 as a result of a heart disease compounded by cocaine use. She was 48.
