Media sources for years reported that Aretha Franklin was Whitney's godmother, and she did not correct that assertion. But more accurately, she seems to have been Whitney Houston's honorary Aunt; Whitney referred to her as "Aunt Ree". Whitney Houston's actual Godmother is Darlene Love. In an interview with Al Roker after Whitney's death, Aretha Franklin confirmed that she was not Whitney Houston's Godmother, but a very close family friend and an honorable "Aunt" to Whitney. It should also be noted that Aretha seemed to have gotten into some sort of dispute with Whitney's mom, Cissy Houston, about whether the family had done enough to keep Whitney off drugs; perhaps Aretha has been trying to separate herself from the family by now saying she was never Whitney's godmother.
