A former bodyguard of Michael Jackson has claimed that the King of Pop and recently deceased Whitney Houston had a secret relationship together in the early 1990s.

Bodyguard Matt Fiddles has come out to claim that Jackson was in love with Houston and had a series of dates at his famous Neverland ranch.

Houston is also well-known for an alleged secret affair with Michael Jackson's brother Jermaine Jackson, although that relationship is claimed to have happened six years prior to Michael's supposed relationship with Houston.

Houston passed away aged just 48 in February after being found submerged in a hotel bathtub with alcohol and drugs in her system.

Bodyguard Fiddles told Britain's The Sun newspaper, "I loved Michael so much but I finally feel it's time to get everything that horrified and upset me over the years off my chest.

"One of the many stories that has never been told about Michael is that he had an ultra-secret affair with Whitney Houston that he never got over.

"He was furious when he heard she had also slept with Jermaine but this didn't stop him holding a candle for her his whole life.

"They met because they were two of the biggest recording artists on the planet and mixing in the same circles. They instantly connected as kindred spirits because they understood each other's massive fame.

"Whitney practically moved in to Michael's ranch and they had a fling like any other young couple. But Michael said later he had always hoped the relationship had gone further, and I know he dreamed of marrying her."

However, the bodyguard claims that the relationship only lasted two weeks, and Houston went on to marry Bobby Brown a year later.

Many have been skeptical of Fiddles claims, and the bodyguard also recently claimed that he may be the biological father of Jackson's son Blanket. Fiddles has said that he donated sperm to the singer so that he could create an "athletic child."
