R&B singer Whitney Houston is countersuing her stepmother Barbara Houston for $1.6 million dollars.
Whitney claims Barbara Houston owes her the money for failing to make payments on the Fort Lee, N.J. condo where she has lived since 1987. It appears that Barbara Houston initiated the legal tussle last year claiming Whitney improperly kept proceeds from John Houston’s $ 1 million dollar insurance policy after he died in 2003. Barbara also claimed that Whitney was suppose to subtract $723,000 from the insurance money to provide her stepmother with a clear title. However Whitney says, she provided her father with a mortgage loan to purchase the condo and they still owed most of the principal and all the interest when he died.
