After The Honeymoon, Bobby Brown Heads To Rehab

Just three weeks after enjoying his honeymoon with wife Alicia Etheredge, Bobby Brown - the former husband of Whitney Houston - has entered rehabilitation. The New Edition singer checked into a confidential rehabilitation center last week as part of an agreement following his arrest for driving under the influence.

In a statement reported by People magazine, Brown's attorney Christopher Brown said, "Mr. Brown takes his agreement very seriously and admitted himself three weeks after concluding his honeymoon in Mexico during a break from the New Edition tour.Bobby is doing well and receiving services that comply with his agreement with the State of California". The singer, 43, was arrested in March for driving under the influence though he was initially pulled over for talking on his cell phone (failing a sobriety test later). He married his manager Etheredge in a ceremony in Honolulu earlier this year, and in a statement on Wednesday, his new wife said, "Bobby's children and loved ones are very proud of him. We appreciate his fans' prayers and well wishes. Bobby is mentally in a good place".

As was widely reported at the time, as well as after Whitney Houston's death, Brown and the late singer struggled with drug and alcohol addiction throughout their tumultuous 14-year relationship. The couple had one child together, Bobbi Kristina Brown.
