Whitney Houston’s family plans to encase her body in concrete to prevent stealing of her jewellery

Whitney Houston’s family is planning to encase her body in concrete to prevent the stealing of the $750,000 worth of jewellery the late singer is buried with.

At the moment Whitney Houston’s grave is under 24-hour guard at Fairview Cemetery in New Jersey but it is thought her mother Cissy Houston can’t afford to keep up the security.

Whitney Houston was buried with a diamond brooch and earrings next to the body of her father John Russell Houston Jr. – who died in 2003 – in February.

A close family source told the Daily Star newspaper: “Cissy can’t afford to keep paying guards forever. A concrete encasement is the only answer.”

A burial expert at Hollywood Forever, which houses the remains of a number of celebrities, believes encasing Whitney Houston in concrete is a “sensible move”.

They said: “It makes robbery virtually impossible. It would take a long time to get through, even with a pneumatic drill.”

Cissy Houston, 78, has also announced she wants to set the record straight about her daughter, who was found dead in a bath tub at the Beverly Hilton hotel in February aged 48.

Whitney Houston’s mother has vowed to write a book publishing both the “good” and “bad” times in the singer’s life.

She is quoted by the New York Times as saying: “I want to stop the lies, It’s going to be the bad. It’s going to be the good.”

Cissy Houston has met a number of New York publishers about the tome, and she could reach a seven-figure deal depending on what she reveals about Whitney Houston’s drug issues and previous marriage to Bobby Brown.
