Bobby Brown, the former husband of the late Whitney Houston, has
been sentenced to 55 days in jail after admitting to drink driving. Brown pleaded no contest, an admission of guilt under California law, to
driving under the influence and driving on a suspended licence in October in
Los Angeles.
Police said they stopped the singer after seeing him driving erratically,
and that he failed a field sobriety test. The New Edition singer was also sentenced to four years' probation, ordered
to install an ignition interlock device and to attend an alcohol counselling
programme.
Brown and Houston divorced in 2007 after 15 years of what Houston later
described as a drug and alcohol-fuelled marriage. Houston drowned accidentally in a Beverly Hills hotel bathtub on February
11, 2012, from the effects of heart disease and cocaine.
