The Whitney Houston “Imaginary Bodyguard” Pact

For years, people rumored that Costner and Whitney Houston were “more than friends” on the set of The Bodyguard. While they were never a couple, Costner recently revealed he was her “imaginary bodyguard” in real life. He fought the studio to keep her “face” on the poster when they wanted to hide her race to increase box office sales

He also revealed that his famous 12-minute eulogy at her funeral was almost blocked by the family’s advisors, but he insisted on speaking because he had promised her he would always look out for her. The rumor of their deep bond was proven true by his lifelong devotion to her legacy.
