Whitney Houston Speeds Up Bobby Brown Divorce

In recent legal proceedings, Whitney Houston has indicated that she wishes to speed up her divorce from R&B singer Bobby Brown.

Whitney filed for a divorce from Brown in October of 2006, but has now requested a default judgement from Orange County superior court. This is a legal move that could speed up the divorce proceedings.

The news was just reported by Celebtv.com, which also added that the 43-year-old singer requested custody of the couple’s daughter Bobbi Kristina, 13, with visitation rights granted to Bobby.

In the court papers, Whitney checked the box that stated there are “no issues of division of community property” between the couple, who wed in 1992.

New Jersey-born Whitney, who has sold a million albums worldwide, is expected to release a new album this year with rumored collaborations including hip hop notables Akon and Missy Elliot.

It is also thought that Whitney will be calling on the help of her soulful family during the next year by recording a new song with her mother Cissy Houston, cousin Dionne Warwick, her daughter and a handful of other relatives.

The news comes just weeks after the diva was spotted socializing with R&B star Ray J, which immediately prompted rumors of a romance.
